True friends are there for each other during tough times.

Now that her ex-friend has exciting news to share, suddenly she wants to talk.

Would it be wrong to keep her distance?

AITAH for standing up for myself after an estranged friend told me she’s pregnant?

I (31F) haven’t heard from my college best friend (29F) since June.

For context, my dog died.

Then, she ghosted me.

She did the same thing when my dad died a few years prior.

This woman’s ex-friend contacted her out of the blue.

I’d made peace with it after therapy.

I know people can only meet you as much as they’ve met themselves.

Well, last week she reached out…

Out of the blue.

She told her ex-friend how hurt she felt.

I respectfully expressed how she hurt my feelings.

I said that it’s shocking to hear from her

I added her actions made me feel terrible, especially during the darkest moments of my life.

She doesn’t want to be a part of her ex-friend’s new family.

Well, this week, she’s telling me she’s pregnant and that I’m going to be an aunt.

Would I be the jerk if I simply said, “Congrats, good luck with that” and left it at that?

Quite frankly, I’m not interested in giving this person another chance.

I don’t feel like being manipulated into a friendship via a child.

This friendship sounds like more trouble than it’s worth.
