Did I overreact? Am I a bad friend?

[Anonymous]

I live in a woody town with shady places. One day, an old friend of mine invited me to go to a bar in one of those areas. She changed a lot these past 5 years. She used to be an honor student until she met other friends and started to live a poor lifestyle filled with thrill and drugs. I heard that she went to rehab tho.
Anyways, knowing that place, I called my boyfriend to tell him where I'm going. Understandably, he was mad, telling me that I should be careful and stuff (didn't yell or cuss. He's a very quiet man). While trying to convince him, my friend came close to my phone, listened in for a while, then yelled: "Shut the f* up you sexist son of a b* and let her come with me! She's old enough to party!" She said stronger words afterwards. I turned away but she snatched my phone and ended the call promptly. I could hear it ringing over and over again. She said that she'll only give my phone back if I went with her. She proceeds to lecture me about internalized misogyny and whatever to the point that I couldn't understand what she's talking about. Then suddenly, she looked into my eyes and said, "Break up with him. He's trash and will only ruin our fun." Sure, he's too serious sometimes. But whether it's when he was a friend or as a present lover, he always gives good counsel and support. I said that I won't go anymore so she tried to pull me into her car. I saw 2 men at the back and irrationally panicked. I flailed around until she let go and I ran as fast as I could until I reached my aunt's place. I told my boyfriend the next day, he was clearly more than mad and went to the alleyway where she always hangs out. He came back with a bruise and my phone that has a cracked screen. He tells me to never contact her unless she straightens her life out. I opened FB and saw her new posts about me, calling me a horrible friend and a letdown. I feel bad... I hate her now, but did I really overreact? What should I do?

No, you are brave woman. Any decent man would carry a sense of honor to have you on his arm. You are a fine lady and far and few between these days. Blessings in all your endeavors.
You have no obligations to her. She violated your person. Stealing your phone, laying hands on you, and forcing you into a car. Many would have filed a police incident report.
Ignore the games and social media. Live above her and be successful in your doings. Eventually, she will hit bottom. It’s very sad BUT you are a fine Lady.

That's too many compliments, but thank you :) The police here are hardly helpful in cases like this so we don't really report as much. I'll consider it next time though.

It’s a crazy world…Eastern USA Timezone by chance❓

[Asker]

Nope, not really.

[Guy13]

That’s too bad. I like how you do things. Best in your endeavors

[Asker]

Thanks, much appreciated.

[SnakeBoop]

so she tried to blackmail you into going to a bar with her?
she is the trash one. although your boyfriend has also no right in demanding you never speak to her again until such and such.

[Asker]

Good point. As for my boyfriend's demands... he has a reason. I was kind of a doormat before and she used the money we were supposed to use on a school project for her m3th addiction. She was also arrested twice for shop lifting and hitting an old lady (she was let out after a short while). I only talked to her again because she was said yo have went to rehab... what do you think?

[bademoxy]

she belongs in jail. find better friends, please.

[Asker]

Yup, thank you :)

[Avicenna]

No, she was out of line

[Asker]

Thanks

[blended_ninja]

Your "friend" was out of line. End the friendship

[Asker]

Thanks! I've been thinking about it actually. I only talked with her again because she was said to have underwent rehab.

[JoyGirl]

No, you didn’t overreact. She was doing too much.

[Asker]

Thanks! I think that I'll take a break from our friendship. It's sad to see her like that, if I must admit. We were really close. Thanks again :)

[Iron_Man]

Oh it’s OK you guys work it out

[Asker]

So many things happened even before this to be honest. I don't think we can work it out as of the moment. I'll probably do so in the far future though.
