Need some advice about a friend what should I do???

[sleepyangel30]

Some of you may remember a post I made about a friend of mine... Well, I think I need to stop talking to her she's bad news. Every since she met up with this guy he's been getting her into some mess. They go out and steal computers etc. She ask me did I have on my police radio scanner I told her yes and I asked why she said it's a long story and that she really can't talk she was whispering she goes if you hear anything on the scanner about 134 blank blank let me know. A couple of mins later she text and said let us know if you hear anything I didn't reply back because I knew they were out stealing.. I have a good record and I don't want to mess that up. I could not stand to be locked up I would die. She text me again and ask me did I get her text I just turned off my cell incase she try and call me I'm not tyring to get in any trouble. Yesterday she and her bf stoled her sister computer and sold it she told me not to tell anyone. I don't hang out with her and her bf they been wanting me to come and visit ummm I don't think so. I told my aunt about it she goes you better stay away from them keep your butt away from there because the cops can come raid their apt and I'll get into some trouble right along with them I agree she's right. Anyway, I just want to know what do you guys think about this and what should I do? Should I stop talking to her or what? I don't want her to be angry with me etc.

Yikes! I say trust your gut and STAY FAR FAR AWAY from that person! It's not a very good friend to even let you in on what's been going on, let alone go over and visit! Yeah, if they get busted and you are there - you go right along with them. Granted, you'd probably be released, but not after I am sure a whole lot of hassle etc. I totally understand the not wanting her to be angry with you thing (sounds so much like me, no matter what - I don't want any of my friends mad at me!:rolleyes: ), but in this case, I would just say - you want no part of her at this moment as you don't agree with what she and her man are doing and you don't want any involvement whatsoever. You have to look out for you and yours and hanging with/being in contact with her is putting you and yours in jeopardy. If she wants that life and that risk - that's her choice, but your choice is to avoid that sort of thing at all costs.

She'll probably get upset, but oh well. You have to think of you first and she has to respect that!!!

Good luck! Will be sending lots of prayers and hugs your way!!!!

thanks for the advice.i agree with you all the way. People like them cannot be trusted they could be setting me up so they can get my record dirty you never know about them.

Yes, you have to think about what the stress of that kind of stuff can do to you....you don't need it. I agree with Tracey that you should honestly tell her that while she does things like that you cannot be a part of her life.

I too hate to have friends mad at me.....it drives me nuts!!!!!!! :grouphug::grouphug::grouphug: It hurts even when you know you did the right thing....but trust that it is also the right thing for her to know that you do not approve. Hopefully it can influence her to give up a life that is not good for her either. :grouphug:

Run as fast as you can in the opposite direction. And while youre at it get rid of the title "friend" that you have associated with this person.

take care

Do not have ANYTHING to do with these people!! If I were you I would call the police and report them, but that's me....

[windwalker]

I'd stay as far as possible, and dont worry about her feelings, shes doing some VERY wrong things and removing yourself from an unsafe situation is more important than her being upset. IF she wasnt doing these things, you wouldnt be breaking the ties and there'd be no problem, therefore, if she gets upset, its her problem, not yours. What a sad situation your "friend" has put herself in.

[sacausa]

I'd leave an annonymous tip with the police department.

[ICNDonna]

I have to agree that you should call the police. What they are doing is wrong, wrong, wrong --- and you don't want to be a part of that. You could go to a phone booth and make the call anonymously if you prefer, but you would hate yourself if they hurt someone.

Warm hugs,

Yes, I agree! Call the police! Like sacausa said, leave an anonymous tip. Your so called friend needs to be turned in. Think how you would feel if someone stole something from you. Your friend and her side kick need to be taught a lesson.

[creatingkarma]

I would no longer consider this person my friend. I'm sorry that this is happening to you!

[Silverfern]

With a friend like that, who needs enemies! I'd be distancing myself from her quick smart. You take care now.

Hugs

The other thing to think about is wondering how they would react if someone caught them stealing --- would they do someone physical harm? It's scary.

Please stay away from these people.

Warm hugs,
Donna

I agree you need to stay away from her too... If she calls tell her that you are sorry, bt wit what is going on you do not want to be any part of it, and she tried to invold=ve you, friends don't do that, its time to part ways.
good luck

[sacausa]

Do not tell her you don't want contact with her... she will turn on you and if she gets caught, she will tell the police that you are involved. That's why I said leave an annonymous tip.

[Mel53H]

Sleepyangel, PLEASE leave an anonymous tip with the police.

[Silverfern]

This has the possibility of turning into a very ugly situation. Be very careful Sleepy!
