My Friend Is Getting An Abortion, What Should I Do ?

My friend just told me that she s going to get an abortion in a few days. I don t really agree with her decision but i really want to be there for her. What should i do ? i mean i don t know what to say around her after she has the abortion. She s already been crying because the two other friends she told won t talk to her and called her a baby killer. and told her to go to hell. That s horrible! I just want to know what she is going to go through and what i should do to make her feel a little better. (BTW she was on the pill so it wasn't like she just had unprotected sex.) (we re 16) OK stop telling me to stop her from getting it. i m not going to. If you going to tell me to stop her then don t bother answering my question. I m not going to stop her! Its her choice! I know that. I m not going to stop her! Its her choice! I know that. she has told her family and the father, the father doesn't want to talk to her and told her to never talk to him again. And her family said that they ll support her what ever she picks to do.

All you can really do is be a shoulder to cry on and an ear to talk off. Just let her know that if she needs you, that you will be there for her. Those two "friends" of hers who said such horrid things to her are NOT friends whatsoever. BOTH OF YOU should drop those individuals. REAL FRIENDS stick by their friends, even if they don't agree with that is being done. IF ANYONE is a real friend, it is you for sticking by her. I commend you for doing that. She may be emotional afterwards, or she may not be. That depends on her. Just let her know that you support her and will be there.
