dilemma
36 Answers
before you have a go at me, i know i have done wrong.im in a real dilemma. before we moved areas, i had a friend who i told something to. another friend knew but i told her not to say anthing. the first friend thought she was the only one who knew and said she wouldnt say anything and i believe her. she has now text to say she cant believe i lied saying that she was the only one that knew and can i explain. at the time i was going through hell with my husband. now im not in the area these two friends pal around more together. i knew it would come out in the end. she hates liars, believe it or not so do. i see it that i was being protective. she also advised me not to tell the other friend as she knows she opens her mouth, so i then felt i couldnt say i had already told her. i really dont want to lose my friendship with her. someone has broken my confidence, can you say i have too? i feel so sick, what can i do? im thinking of ringing her but i know she will be furious. if i do lose her friendship then she may blabber to everyone then. im scared. it would mean our whole life there and friends we made there would be over for good as i didnt come clean with them before we left.

you need to snap out of this feeling of letting her down, you havnt.
she wouldnt look a fool is she just kept quiet about knowing, though i can only think that she would look a fool if she went to tell someone your secret and they said they knew already.
if she takes offence then sobeit, she doesnt sound like a friend

You've now moved, think of it this way, new area, new start, and make new friends. Ummmm is right, you can tell what you want to whom you want, if anybody has the right to be angry, it's you for your secret to be broken. Phone your friend if you like, but if she goes mad at you, (which she has no right) say you were fed up, tired, scared, drunk, vulnerble, whatever, and you blurted it out, but that's beside the point, what is she mad for? If she does blabber - will people take any notice now you're not there? Honestly love, people have problems of their own, and the only scenes of what people might think are just often in our own heads. Whoever let your secret out wasn't a friend in the first place. Forget it and get on with your life.
i really dont think she would have been one to say anything first. it could be that the husbands have chatted about it as her hubby went round for tea to other friends while she was away. no being funny but men dont think, sorry if you are male and replying. yes i know we women think too much but we are more emotional and i am in particular careful not to hurt others feelings. so how do i start the conversation then, do i apologise, do i ask whats been said? she cant believe i lied to her as i said and hates liars. im doomed.
I don't understand what you feel bad about. It's YOUR secret. you tell who YOU want. End of. If she moans that you made her look a fool politely explain to her that with all thats going on (whatever it is) telling her you had told someone was not on the top of your prioprity list. You do not have to explain to her who you have confided in. stop worrying.
yes i do wish i could start all over again and not have any connections from this period in my life. once the secret is out other friends will get to know and it will be a snowball effect. we are supposed to be meeting up with some friends from there half way, on saturday, i really dont want to now as they may know by then and we will look liars though we try not to talk about past things too much.
