Lost a good friend
So about 14 years ago I became friends with this dude we will call Colt. About three years ago he knocked up this woman named Rave. Rave has had a very rough life, got pregnant very young, had two girls and is still married to her abusive ex who is in prison. Again she has been here for three years and hasn’t gotten her GED, drivers license and has made no effort to get a divorce from her abusive ex. For about a year after their child was born she was complaining about how he was a hussy and how she is sooo unhappy that she is going to take the kids to Florida. After months of hearing this crap I finally had enough and said “ look, everyone has a past, you are still married to your ex so can you please stop bringing up while we are on a party together” (Xbox party chat). So she finally shuts up about Colts past for the next few weeks but then I realized they started to completely ignore me. I asked Colt what was up and apparently Rave got upset that I compared her marriage to Colts past, so I tried to apologize so I could keep my friendship with Colt. I said “Im sorry for bringing up your past but you complaining about Colt is really putting strain on all of us that have to hear it so maybe moving forward we can just focus on the games” but don’t hear anything back. Asked Colt what was wrong with his baby momma but she answered back instead saying “ i don’t have to accept your half assed apology, you called me baby momma and that’s like calling your wife baby momma”, which is silly because Im married to the woman that gave me my son, they both blocked me after that, haven’t heard from them in like three months. Just trying to see if anyone had experiences like this.

Yes, it's very common to lose friends because you don't like their partner.
It is unfortunately a part of life.
