I have a fairly good male friend. Divorcee and enjoying single life and new / casual relationships - so far so good. He often confides in me about various ladies and Im happy for him (although occasionally mention about precautions etc - ) during these 'discussions' I actually don't talk all that much and listen or ask questions.
Anyway in the last six months I have met three of his ladies who have had overlapping relationships. However he tells me one (who lives locally to me) is just a friend - there's nothing sexual - he wouldnt want to ruin their friendship blah blah blah. However other people have mentioned seeing him out with this friend and how they appear loved up etc - he has very strongly implied to others that they are an item.
Why lie to me????
I don't particularly care who he sees and whether he has 50 girlfriends (although I would be wary about picking up/transmitting disease). I have also made it very clear to him that I don't judge peoples love lives as I know how complicated they can be.
AIBU to be annoyed that he lies to me about her? Why lie?
