For the last decade, this 30-year-old woman and Sarah, 31, have been best friends.

Sarah and her husband, Mark, 40, have been together for eight years and got married a year ago. They have three children.

Unfortunately, Mark has cheated on Sarah at least four times, and those are only the occurrences that they’re aware of.

“Within the last couple of years, Sarah lost both her mom and brother, both within six months of each other. For further proof of how awful Mark is, he used her deceased brother’s motorcycle to pick up girls he was having an affair with. Mark used her grief as an opportunity to cheat while she was distracted,” she said.

Two weeks before their wedding, Sarah discovered that Mark had a secret girlfriend on the side who was sending money to him because he’d lost his job and needed financial help.

Once Sarah learned about this, she canceled the wedding.

However, two years later, she married him despite his previous infidelity.

As time passed, she grew more tired of witnessing Sarah put up with Mark’s cheating.

Eventually, she could no longer handle the idea of just standing by while Sarah refused to walk away from him, and she expressed this to Sarah.

Throughout the years, she believed that she was an incredibly supportive and caring friend during Sarah’s darkest moments in life.

“I was always there for Sarah emotionally and even financially. Like when her mom passed away, I paid for her trip back home for another funeral. I knew she was broken from her trauma and wanted her to realize she was the strong woman who I knew she once was and who could leave her marriage on her own terms,” she explained.

Sadly, Sarah didn’t take kindly to what she had to say. In response, Sarah called her a terrible friend, telling her that a true friend would stick by her side no matter what decisions she made, good or bad.

Hearing this from Sarah was understandably devastating.

“I really cared about our friendship, but more than that, I cared more about her and seeing her hurt by Mark again when I knew she deserved more,” she shared.

Since their argument, which was six months ago, Sarah hasn’t talked to her, and Mark and Sarah are still married.

Now, she’s questioning whether it was a good idea to end her friendship with Sarah.
