If this "friend" she told is the type who would say something on social media, then you don't really want her around anyway, right? At your age, I would be more upset about the GF blowing the agreement than I would about the potential gossip.

An abortion is usually a pretty big deal for a woman. There are a few who view it as a relief and then just go on with their lives, but most women struggle with the decision for a while. Your GF may be unpredictable in the next weeks/months.

Better talk about it with her and decide what is most important. Trust should be high on the list, but her emotional state needs to be addressed.
Makes sense. Her and this friend have been on the splits for a couple months but my GF is in her wedding in October so it has made it difficult for her. You have very valid points, thanks for the input.

That's great but she might need to talk to other females/friends/counselor or whomever about it.

Is she in general very chatty?
How was it for her, was she sad, relieved, emotional, ....?

However, an abortion is a MAJOR EVENT. MAJOR. EVENT.

Some women get depressed over it or even suicidal. Some don't giv a crap. But usually it is not just something you do real quick and move on with your life. It just recently happened. You don't know how she feels - maybe every pregnant woman or baby she sees is triggering something in her. Not being able to talk about it can damage her soul.



I think OP should not be too mad about the broken agreement in THIS SPECIAL case.
Not to minimize the event, it was medical at 5 weeks, so no procedures were done. I know of course the emotional side of it is the same but wanted to clarify.

Hmmm, she was very nervous, then relieved, then very sad. She has been or seemed ok the last couple days but obviously still struggling with it. I might suggest she talk to someone professional if it would help.

Now we are getting somewhere - I would take her to a counselor before the pro life biatch causes more mental damage for her.

I think you are right. This other girl is 23, has two kids with two different dads, and is marrying a third guy but thinks she is righteous because she had them. To each their own, I am pro-choice but don't tell others how to live their lives.

Maybe she thought that since you didn't care if the secret was out, that it didn't matter so much if she spilled the beans?
