Let’s say a friend, ok
boyfriend, talks to you about someone, ok your
friend, male or female, ok
male, and says that he heard from a third party that
said friend is "wild" and that 3rd party wouldn’t be surprised if
said friend is trying to holler at you (
me). Now what if this information is false, and
said friend gave up on hollering at you 5 years ago when you(
I) shut him down and has been dating another chick since then, but you (
I) have still maintained a friendship that you (
I) value very highly. Is it wrong for you (
me) to share this information with
said friend.
If someone, no matter who, boyfriend or not, says or hears something untrue about one of my friends, male or female, I think it is my duty as a good friend who values the friendship, to share this information with them. I feel like they need to know what is being said about them.
If your significant other tells you something that you find to be untrue about one of your friends of the opposite sex or the same sex for that matter, would it be wrong to share it with your friend? And never once did your significant other say this info was confidential. But you being the honest person that you are, tell sig. oth. that you spoke with friend of opposite sex, and told them about what was said. As a true friend, I feel it is my duty to tell you what people are saying about you, regardless of who told me. Why is that wrong? Well I got in trouble for running my mouth.
Boyfriend is jealous of
said friend.
based on the 1st paragraph, i wouldn't share info with friend from the past (said friend). i think BF is either jelly or just plain insecure abt your relationship with S.F. and no need to feed into possible tension b/c BF is telling you what he heard from someone else. see, too many people invloved already. do not pass go.
You were right to tell, perhaps you should have explained this info about the friend trying to holler adn understanding it would never happen to the boyfriend also. I may have helped him feel better?
