About a month ago she told me that her mother has stopped talking to her. It broke my heart ... now she and her mother are on the outs because of all of this. She said at that time, "you really get to know who your true friends are in all of this." I told her I was on her side at that time, wanting to remain her friend ... be there for her. Now going dark, from her perception, puts me on the side of her mother--abandoning her. The way her father did when she was my daughter's age.
