DEAR ABBY: My wife and I have been married for five years, with two children.
I’m friends with three people who got into a series of arguments. One of them no longer talks to the other two. I have remained friends with all three and I told them I want to remain neutral. I wasn’t around when the arguments took place, and I don’t want to be involved. One friend says that because I’m still friends with the other two, I’m taking their side and condoning how they treated her.
I didn’t see the fights and I’m not condoning anyone’s behaviour. The one friend has now stopped being friends with me. I would like to be friends with everyone. Is this person right about me condoning the other two’s actions by remaining silent and continuing my friendship with them? — STAYING OUT OF IT IN MONTANAArticle contentNo, they are not. What they are doing is trying to manipulate you.
