Am I expecting too much from my friends?

am-i-expecting-too-much-from-my-friends?

I’m in a bad situation with an abusive ex. Luckily I got out but he has said and done crazy things after the break up and I should probably file a police report. I’m very scared of him and want to go to the police but I’m afraid to.

My girls friends are strongly encouraging me to go to the cops and do something about it. But no one has offered to come with me to support me. Well one friend offered to go the next day but then she never brought it up or reached out and I felt that she didn’t mean it or changed her mind. And I didn’t want to either because I felt like I was bothering her since I already asked her the day before.

Is it that the friends I have are not that close as I thought we were? Or is it not something someone would consider, or cross your mind to help your friend by doing this?

I know if my friend was in this situation I would offer to go with her, so I really feel very alone. I honestly feel like I’m bothering them, I can feel it. Idk it really hurts me because I’ve always felt like I didn’t have true real friends. And my ex also reiterated this about them which I always defended them, but now it just feels like he’s right. Unless I’m expecting too much from them
