Four months ago, my best friend who was in love with me told me that a month before me and my boyfriend started dating he forced her to send him nudes twice. I asked my boyfriend, he said he didn’t do anything wrong, so I believed him. She wasn’t credible to me because of her past of emotionally manipulating me to think of her before myself, so I blindly believed my boyfriend. She sobbed to me for hours, begging for me to believe her, but I refused to listen. She gave me an ultimatum, him or her, and I chose him. I blocked her on everything and deliberately avoided her in person. I find out four months too late, yesterday, that she was telling the complete truth. I left my best friend all alone with her trauma and depression. She tried to kill herself over it, and I don’t know what to do. I feel terrible, but i’m four months too late, and there’s no way she’ll ever know how little i knew of the truth and there’s no way she could ever forgive me. There’s no way I can ever forgive me.
