She should not have blown up at you because she is unhappy and has not had anyone to vent to about it.

I am really not concerned about her life anymore. This thread wasn't really about that. Anyway...I only "know" her husband has a drinking problem because she says so. How do I know she is even telling the truth?
I have known this guy forever...and have never seen him drunk. I have been out with them and he drank socially and did not over-drink. She seemed to be the one who over-drank.
Okay...maybe I have answered my own questions here.
Whatever is going on...they are locked in a toxic marriage. I didn't want to be in the middle anymore.
She needs therapy. She doesn't want to go to a therapist because she wants everyone to agree with her.
Okay, she probably feels I betrayed HER.
Maybe I did.
It is good for me to stay out of denial. I rocked the boat, yes.
But her rage went way beyond whatever she perceived was her situation.
I am tired of this. I am tired of thinking about this and talking about this. I have already talked to a counselor about this...as well as some people from my church. I am under too much stress presently to be forgiving and understanding at this time. I have to focus on how not to become homeless.
I will try not to think about her. I should have ended the so-called friendship once-and-for-all years ago. She creates sorrow and discord. I tried to be a friend and could not. End of story.
