Convinced,
I know where you are coming from. My best friend was a single mother (she has since married) and when she told me I knew that I had to stand by my friend. She was going through a hard time and needed support. When she married 2 1/2 years ago (not her daughter's father), I was one of her bridesmaids. She asked me the night before her wedding why I didn't walk away from her when she was pregnant. I told her you're my best friend---we stayed friends for over 20 years through middle school, high school, college why would I walk away from you when needed a friend. She broke down in tears. She's been married for over 2 1/2 years, her daughter is a pre-teen, we are separated by almost 200 miles and our friendship is still going strong. I'm sorry for the long post but---you are going to have many friends or associates during the course of your life. However, true bestfriends are rare. Discogoddess is right about prayer and also need to consider your past friendship with your friend. I'll keep you in my prayers.
