A friend of mine just got married; I should be happy for her, right?

But, I'm not.

And it's not because I have trust issues. (well, maybe)

But, she was friends with this man for a few years. Just friends. They started dating seriously/exclusively 6 months ago. Yesterday, she married him.

He seems like a great man. My friend? I think she has NPD. I truly do, and we have lost touch over the past two years, due to it. We communicate off and on. But, she felt the need to share this news with me.

I said nothing. She said, Dee...aren't you happy for me?

I said, yea, good for you. If you're happy, then great.

My reply sounded so weak. She seemed ticked, and said...well, I just wanted to share this with you. I will call to catch up with you another time.

Part of me is happy for her, part of me thinks she rushed things. Part of me feels sad, that I am afraid to date, and she just recently divorced (like 3 months ago, it was final) and she has remarried? Already?

Maybe it's me. :/

It makes me feel sad, and I'm not even sure why. :(

Anyways, just sharing.
