To tell my friend?

[honeyheaven]

My friend has been slagged off on fb. So AIBU to tell her?

I could go into more detail but worried that someone might recognise. I will reveal more if you think I need to.

First time on AIBU so will brace myself!!!

Depends on the level of the slagging off and who is doing it. Is it true? Will it cause huge problems for her in her relationship/job/etc?

Would she be better off knowing? So for example if someone put on FB "WhoAte is a bitch" then it wouldn't really matter to me and telling me would probably cause more trouble than it was worth but if someone put "WhoAte is shagging her husbands father's brother" then I'd want to know.

If someone told you something nasty about her in a face to face situation, would you tell her?

I'd let her know, because I hate playground crap behind people's backs. Get it out in the open so that whoever's being that childish can be seen for what they are

Nothing gossipy, more name calling and being nasty about her.

Tell her and step away from FB

Then don't bother. She will find out anyway one way or another anyway.

Is this someone she would expect not to be doing this? Is she not friends with them on FB? If it was someone who is a known enemy if you like, well, I would just think she knows what they're like and her views on them and there's no need for her to be further upset by that and forget it.

If however it was someone she had no idea disliked her so intensely then I think I would have to tell her.

nah dont tell her, just join in :)

I would tell her but then i like being a bitch now and again
