@whitequark I expect everyone hitting the "favorite" button is feeling stunned by how awful this situation is...
There's way too many people who need to learn that, sometimes, friendship is an exclusive-or type thing; and that if we fail to acknowledge this, we can enable much, much more harm than we expect. And this applies much more often than we want to admit.
I hope more people in your life will show that they understand this.
And I'm glad you're still here.
