writes:I got out of an abusive relationship about 5-6 months ago. My life has gotten better in many ways. I started dating a friend of mine (who I wasn't allowed to see)and am now pregnant with his child. However, I feel I have not fully recovered from the effects of the previous abuse. Most of our mutual friends won't even talk to me and I haven't seen any of them since I left. Lots of his friends (some I don't even know) are feeling sorry for him because he's telling people only that I left him and am now "knocked up by some douche bag." His words. How rude! Anyway, I know I need to get over all this and move on but it still hurts that most of my friends act like I'm not alive anymore. I feel like they think I might have made it all up and it's eating at me. Why is everyone feeling sorry for him and I get no support? Is it normally like this for people in my situation or am I wrong to assume that people who say they are my friend would at least want to know how I'm doing or at least say, "HI." to me? I'm so frustrated.

These people aren't your friends, and you should just be away from them. They're all like him. You need to get away from these negative people and start making new friends and focusing on your pregnancy. That's the only sure way to get this guy and all his abuse out your life. Get away from them all.
