Friday, I got a frantic call from my friend/ex-gf...
She got into it with her roommate(s). Not me. (yay).
She texted me "Emergency". I texted back "Call 911", because I've already been dragged through the drama. Turns out she wasn't kidding.
Police were called, and she and he... were both arrested. Kids went to DCFS
Now. I feel guilty. Not very guilty, I didn't create the situation; but I didn't help, either.
ALL my friends have said "dump this person" and run away quickly.
But, how do you help a troubled person otherwise?
The state of california doesn't. They turf the mentally-ill downtown by skid row, and roust them from anywhere they camp...
I cannot bail her out, it's too much money to risk. Maybe if I wasn't in debt ...
and I feel terrible for the kids.
