I have a friend whose truthtelling has not been stellar. Mostly, attention-seeking stuff and white lies regarding friendship itself. Since I can not be sure I am right on any particular thing, I just go along with it and do what I can for support. But I'm not a person they go to for support, or even conversation.
Recently the nature of their stories has taken a drastic turn, and I'm worried. If the stories are true, they've had some harrowing experiences, and if they are not, then there's a big problem. The person they do go to for support does not take me seriously. I am powerless to help. I don't even have someone I can ask for guidance. Kinda not my problem, given how arms-length they keep me, but I have a perspective born of that arms-length-keeping that I'm pretty sure their support person is missing. But I don't want to make it their problem, I don't want to damage their relationship. Can't actually do that, given that they don't take me seriously, but whatever. No clue what to do about it.
Basically, their support person takes what they say at face value, and I don't want to damage their relationship telling them what I know. I have a key piece of information, but it's not my part to tell anyone about it. And it'd be counterproductive to my own standing to say anything, as I'm sure they won't believe me.
So tired of being told I'm wrong, BTW. And I am completely useless to people.
