I came here because people are brutally honest in this group, and I need advice. I know it was a bad time, but she is ranting about her life every time we talk. So do I wait until it’s definitive diagnosis? Do I ask to have a conversation about it specifically (plan a dinner with the assumption that’s all we’d talk about)? How long should I wait to bring it up again? I’m not sure the best approach, it’s something I really need to discuss with someone so I need advice
This sounds bad on her part with no other context. If you’re really friends, make a point to ask if it’s a good time to bring up something important about you. If she says she’s not done talking about her breakup or whatever, then wait until she finishes or there’s a pause in the conversation
I normally would go to someone else, but I’m home for the summer and she’s the only person I really kept in touch with from high school, my closest friends aren’t here and it’s new I don’t know how to drop from halfway across the country. I know that’s a me problem as well and I’m just being a bit difficult here, I just wanna share the news as respectfully as possible, especially since it’s not a definitive diagnosis yet
