I feel so bad for my friend right now, guys.
So I've met her family and stuff and let me tell you, her dad is a DICK
She's told me that he used to abuse her when she was younger and when I'm over at her house (something that's only happened twice, we both prefer my house) he won't hesitate to go all out and scream at her in front of me when she's done the tiniest thing wrong. He just does all this stupid shitty stuff and I feel so fucking bad for her. She's says multiple times that she'd rather live with me than with her own family, and while most best friends may say this as a sort of joke, I honestly think she's completely serious.
She told me that her family was supposed to go on vacation this week but her parents got into an argument and her mom isn't going, therefore she probably won't be either. I keep telling her to listen to music and sending her digital hugs and stuff but no matter what I can't help but feel bad for her. I just want to be there for her, like I want to be there for all of you guys when you feel sad, and it absolutely sucks that I can't just run over to her house and give her a cuddle or something to make her feel better because she lives like half an hour away (and it's like 11 at night right now but that's beside the point) and I hate that.
Thank god we're going to the same school next year and I've honestly made a promise to myself to not lose her as a friend because I worry about her sometimes. I don't think she's depressed or anything super serious like that, but I love her so much and I don't want anything happening to her.
I'm going to try to continue texting her tonight so I can get her mind off things, wish me luck
