Relationship Friends Problems

[Newtoptsd]

One of my closest friends today gave me grief about my relationship with my combat vet.

Things are going well but she gave me grief that I hadn't seen him in 1 and 1/2 weeks ... apparently that's not normal and I need to end it! Christ what do people do in long distance relationships? Should they not be together?!!

Just needing some support today. I have friends who understand and those who don't, I didn't want to talk to her about it she just kept proving me which ended up in a heated discussion.

Feeling low and sad.

People outside PTSD don't get it.

I'm so sorry she didn't get it. :( :hug: Often if someone is that adamant about a thing, it's more about them than you.

Thanks @Sweetpea76 youre right, no one gets it, some friends choose to be supportive and some don't.

@Justmehere yes you're right, I felt sad after we had the discussion but the more I think about it the more I know she's not selfless enough to be with someone with PTSD, she's just a bit too self absorbed and selfish to be understanding of the needs of others. It's pretty much all ''me me me' with her.

Thanks you so much for relying, just hearing from people helps!
