My best friend found out her husband cheated, then continued to have sex with him, and is now extremely upset that’s she’s pregnant again with him. AITA for tell her she’s stupid?Like what did she think was going to happen?

yea don’t tell her she’s stupid that’s the kind of thing you vent about to others but you also don’t need to coddle her. maybe just support in the very real dilemma she’s in now of being pregnant by this guy

It was stupid, but she almost certainly realizes it now, after getting hit with the reality check that is pregnancy. And telling her it was stupid won’t improve the situation for anyone. Even if she brought it on herself, she needs grace and support rather than criticism.

i truly think it depends on how you value her as a friend. if shes ur best friend and u wanna support her through this then yeah that was not the way to do that. shes already pregnant, does she need you to TELL her that shes stupid? if you want to continue being friends with her id help her through it

I think she needs your support right now more than she needs to hear that she was dumb.

To everyone commenting, she started this relationship as the other woman. I offered to move into a rent house with her and her mom and split rent 3 ways so that should wouldn’t have to stay in that situation. She refused and said he was a good man. Now she’s crying to me that she didn’t see this coming. I told her after he cheated the 2nd time to not sleep with him until he got tested and that if she wanted to stay, I would support it, but that I don’t really agree. Key info I didn’t share!

Tell her to get an abortion and move on it’s not that hard

she probably knows she did something stupid but if she doesn’t then at that point she’s delusional and telling a delusional person they’re delusional isn’t gonna convince them that would mean they’d ever to be thinking rationally which they’re clearly not

She’s gotten into this situation and she’s keeping it a secret that he cheated. Which I understand, but she’s making posts about how wonderful he is, which is a lie. I just don’t have time for fake, and I feel like she needs someone to be honest with her, maybe not call her stupid, but something about her not making good choices
