Telling partner about private info

[drzebedee]

So this week my parttner mentioned his best friend at work (whom i've met and got on well with) was going to propose to his partner on holiday none of my business you might think but he found out 6 months ago and didn't say anything until their holiday this week, I think it's a question of trust, I'm certainly not a blabbermouth but i've been told things in the past to keep to myself but eventually told my partner as I trust him so aibu to feel a little hurt?

Maybe he thought you’d get your hopes up that he’d pop the question to you soon too

He is perhaps testing the waters with you to see if you are a Becky Vardy then go blab!

It depends.
If your confidence is breached each time but he never breaches his best mates confidence then I would be more than just hurt.
Example:
If I confided in my partner about something about myself etc and found that my partner had not told anyone except his best friend I would be questioning what I said to my partner in the future knowing it's never just between us.
If however my partner never remembered anything and was only reminded about his best friend's surprise because the holiday was due, I would see it as nothing personal.

In your opening post you make it clear that you can't keep secrets, yet your surprised that he didn't share this information with you earlier? How very odd.

Great thread. I'm not sure why you give a shit tbh.

By now I’m sure you already know you sound unreasonable

Why would you care about this? It's hardly exciting information!
