Hello
My DD15 has a girlfriend. Her dynamic with her best friend seems to have changed.
It’s like she feels threatened (friendship wise) in a way she wouldn’t if DD had a boyfriend. She isn’t ditching her friend for this girl or changing plans on her. She had a girlfriend when she was 13 and I remember some similar fall outs then. But seems more intense now. Maybe as DD is spending more time with this new girlfriend (as she is older etc). She was so upset yesterday as spent some time with her girlfriend and her friend was sending her horrible messages - when she literally never had any plans with that friend. They were snapping perfectly fine, friend asked what she was up to, DD said she was with GF and then the friend just flipped and was telling her to F off, can’t be arsed with you, not wasting my time with you etc…
Just wondered if anyone else has found similar and how it was managed? I know some schools have LBTQ+ groups for people to meet and I wonder if these are the type of issues explored there and peer support offered. Her school does not have a group though.
My DD is neurodiverse autism/ADHD so her best friend is really important to her. She doesn’t have a large supply of friends to fall back on. I think best friend is fine with DD’s identity, although she has tried to push DD into dating male friends before. Best friend has a group of friends so DD is not her only person.
Thank you :)
