Bad girl turned to good

You should sit her down and tell her how it makes you feel when she does her " self righteous act".Tell her that you want to remain friends but you won't be able to do so if you two can't agree to disagree. There are many friendships where the two can't agree the sun is shining but they are still friends.If she can't or won't understand your point of view. Or she refuses to stop being so self righteous, then you will have to call it quits. But before you accept defeat, you need to tell her how you really feel. In truth, a true Christian will understand and will be compassionate enough to stop.Good Luck. Take Care.

I see two sides here. I see you liked your friend even though she was a wild partier. You sort of miss her in a way but not the bad actions. Now that she is a Christian she has gone overboard. This is often the case with a new Christian. In order to clean up her act she has gone to an extreme. With time this should lessen and she will be a little less self righteous. But for now she is over compensating for her past and trying to bring up her standards. Though this is a difficult time for you if you can see it from her perspective it will look a lot different. She is trying to avoid her former life style which might mean she has to verbalize against everything she used to verbalize for. You no longer share many of the same points of view and that is hard. Perhaps you could sit down with her and tell her that though you understand she has changed, you feel that she is trying to push those changes off onto you and perhaps other friends. As a Christian the responsibility should be to show you her new found persona not force it on you. Just don't debate with her. You are both entitled to your own opinions. That doesn't mean that either of you are wrong, just that there are two separate opinions...example: one of you might peel a potato with a potato peeler while the other uses a paring knife...you both get the potato peeled, it turns out fine. But you went about it totally different. Neither way is necessarily wrong. Just a different method. If you are truly her friend and she is truly your friend perhaps you should just not debate on smaller issues and talk about what you do still have in common instead. Good luck and hang in there! If she is truly your friend and this is truly worth fighting for you will have a friend for life!

People do change, I know that I have a lot in many years. I have definitely changed from who and what I used to be. I grew up and I learned about things.

This is a hard one for me...I can relate to both sides. You see, I used to be the same as your friend...wild and carefree, never worrying about answering for anything, not caring where I ended up when my time here was through. Then my best friend passed away and I relized that I needed to get my life back on track. I quit doing alot of the bad things I was doing, quit hanging around with ppl that were living the way I used to and started building up my morals and values again. I try to be a better person so when my time here is through I can be with my best friend again. At the same time, I had one of my brothers ask me how I can be against something now that I was ok with before. I really didn't know how to answer him. The best I can tell you is if you want to remain friends, sit down and talk to her. Tell her that your glad she got her life straighten out but she needs to work on her live and let live values. I am one that I don't agree with the gay lifestyle but I don't go around attacking them or bashing them. I just don't want it around me. I hope this helps.
