My friend was robbed at gun point!

I got a bit of a scare this weekend. My sister's girlfriend - and also a good friend of mine - was held at gun point this weekend.

She was sitting in her car in her friends driveway when a man knocked on the window asking for directions. He then pulled open the door, put a gun to her stomach and took her wallet and cell phone. Thankfully he left without harming her. She called the police, filled a report and cancelled her credit cards. Not much else can be done.

I was so shaken when I heard the news. I am glad nothing happened, but I kept thinking, what if it had. She is doing surprisingly well, like it was no big deal. I am still upset about what happened, and it didn't even happen to me. I can't imagine being in that situation, I would be traumatized.

OMG, that is terrible. She could still be in denial. Just be there for her if she breaks down realizing what really happened.

Oh my goodness, how frightening! It sounds like your friend may still be in shock—it probably hasn’t completely sunk in yet.

Believe it or not, my mom has actually been held up at gunpoint twice. Once as a bank teller and once at a children’s clothing store. She was terrified both times, but thank the Lord neither person hurt her.

How scary. I hope they catch the person who robbed her .

She is a tomboy, she is probably trying to act tough.

How scary that this has happened to your mother twice. I can understand a bank, but a children's store?
