Context, I 20M had a friend 19F who was a very sharing person. She would constantly tell me about everything she thought / felt and would constantly talk about her problems. I was fine with this, but within the past 3 months it’s became super annoying. Purely because she keeps on talking about how controlling her mom is and acting like she’s living in prison. Her mom, while not the nicest person ever and definitely a little controlling, is not all that bad. She will complain about things like her mom going into her room to look for something, or not letting her go out until 3 in the morning, or not have boys over. Now I get as a college student just starting out, you want all the freedom you can get. But also living rent free with your mother does come with some boundaries. Recently she has been talking about moving out, which I said would be for the better. And no matter what every time we speak it’s all she talks about, and I always have the same response. Last time I told her this, she responds with “ if I’m alive to move out then maybe” and I asked what that means. She said she had been “researching” and that she thought her mom was a narcissist and she said that if she moves out her mom would try to “keep control” and that it might escalate. I told her that she shouldn’t jump to conclusions like that and I highly doubt her mom is going to kill her. She got upset and asked if I was on her side. Now admittedly, I could have gone about this nicer, but I said no and that she was being very overdramatic about the whole situation. Now we aren’t on speaking terms. AITAH?
