I know I was wrong to judge but how would you react ?

My best friend (45) was recently away for a long weekend in another country with one of her uni friends . She met a guy she fancied and told friend to head back to hotel alone as she wanted to stay out with this guy she had met .

a few hours later best friend returned to hotel with the guy and had sex with him while her friend was in the other single bed beside them .

when she told me this , I spoke without thinking and I do admit I was judgemental, i probably should of said nothing . But I told her that I thought what she did was grim, and it was out of order bringing a stranger back to a room without consulting her friend and even worse she had sex with him with her friend asleep in the next bed . I said if I was said friend I would be questioning how much she values their friendship for her to dump her for a one night stand whilst on a girls trip in a foreign country.

she is now annoyed at me for what I said .

am I clutching my pearls too tightly or am I right in thinking it was grim ?

oooh no that is grim. Shag him - fine. Next to a friend - yuk. Did her friend know?

ShaunaSadeki · 07/05/2025 20:22

Ick! What did the other friend do/say? I’d be pretty pissed off and upset if I was her

Barrenfieldoffucks · 07/05/2025 20:22

Yeah, grim. I'd probably have said the same, and if I hadn't I'd have distanced myself from her sharpish.

MeltonInTheHeat · 07/05/2025 20:23

Grim.

Sunnyevenings · 07/05/2025 20:23

Its awful.

Many years ago, when on a girl holiday, I was the friend in another bed listening to two people having sex in the single bed next to mine. Thirty years on and I still remember how awful it was.

Gross! 🤮

MightAsWellBeGretel · 07/05/2025 20:23

Oh yuk!

DuckonaBike · 07/05/2025 20:27

Why do you think you were wrong to judge? I think you were absolutely right to judge.

thickandcreamy · 07/05/2025 20:30

@ShaunaSadekiShe said her friend slept through it all

@DuckonaBikeI suppose I think live and let live . It didn’t impact me personally so I shouldn’t of said anything. Also her reaction made me think I was out of order to judge .

..As far as she knows.
Friend's friend might just be saying that to keep the embarrassment level down.

pizzaHeart · 07/05/2025 20:33

You didn’t judge - you just pointed out a few obvious facts. If your friend can’t handle plain truth she shouldn’t talk to people about things she’s done.
I can’t believe she is 45 tbh.

🤢 no thank you

Gross

monktasmic · 07/05/2025 20:34

I’ve also experienced this second hand more than once. 🤮
really really grim - don’t give a shit about the ONS - I just don’t need to be there 🤮

GeorgianaM · 07/05/2025 20:35

I wouldn’t associate with that type of ghastly woman.

theunbreakablecleopatrajones · 07/05/2025 20:35

Of course it’s grim!

thickandcreamy · 07/05/2025 20:36

@tartyflettethats what I was thinking . Time will tell I suppose & if that friend distances herself from her then she will know why .

TheWiseGoose · 07/05/2025 20:36

Yuck. And why can't they get a room? Is he an utter loser that he can't afford one?

Goody2ShoesAndTheFilthyBeast · 07/05/2025 20:37

Fucking with someone else in the room is fucking grim whether she likes it or not.

Greenglades · 07/05/2025 20:42

Grim for what she did and her reaction to you. She has no respect for her holiday friend either.

thisfilmisboring123 · 07/05/2025 20:45

Eeeewwwww

No, no, no!

What a shitty thing to do- even worse that she can’t see it’s wrong!
Awful behaviour

I remember telling the girl I went on holidays with that I slept through it all when she was giggling about it the next day. I remember pretending to sleep and wondering when they would stop having sex and sleep so I could get up for water! Its thirty years since I've seen her, and thirty years since it happened!

Many years ago, when on a girl holiday, I was the friend in another bed listening to two people having sex in the single bed next to mine. Thirty years on and I still remember how awful it was.

I would have turned on the lights and thrown a glass of cold water on them. Who does that??

Neetra30 · 07/05/2025 20:54

It is a bit grim.
But @thickandcreamy you were wrong to impose your morals and thoughts and make her feel more shit.
I'm sure she knows it was a bit grim. But as a friend she needs understanding not criticism or judgement.
