AIBU to think friend has no right to judge mutual friend given her past

[rainbowstarsign]

Will keep this as brief as possible

Friend has recently separated from her DH, she has confined in her close friends that she was unsure before marrying her DH but she went ahead with it because even if it didn’t work out her DH and his family is quite wealthy so she would benefit financially from that, my friend did however want her marriage to work.

Other mutual friend is disgusted with friend and says she is the lowest of the low however this friend about five years ago was done for drink driving. AIBU to support my friend through her marriage breakup and think other friend has no right to be so judgey when she has drink drived in the past?

Would you think her entitled to judge your friend had she not been caught drink-driving?

Do your mates know that you like to share their dirtiest secrets online for MN karma?

I hope you never judge anyone with this in your history!

Drink driving is illegal and also morally abhorrent.

Marrying someone because they are wealthy is morally abhorrent but there's no legal bar to it happening.

I wouldn’t judge either unless I knew the full ins and outs which you probably don’t.

Just support whoever you want to. It’s not up to your friend to decide who you choose to support.

Apples and oranges.

She can judge all she likes. They both sound like eejits

“ lowest of the low” … who is she Rose West ? What a load of hyperbole

I’d not have a drink driver as a friend.

Ditch the judgy menace.

Well the two things are completely unrelated, but drink driving is many many times worse. It’s criminal, and risks the death of innocent people.

Marrying in the hope things work out is foolish, and marrying for wealth ill advised, but people don’t always see these things at the time.
