Should I tell my friend?

For many years a friend of mine has had a very rocky relationship with her adult son (in his 30s) who lives with her. Their relationship seems to have now totally broken down and he doesn't want her at his wedding.

Said son has never liked me much. Late last night he sent me an email (the contents were not nice) which I skim read and deleted both in the inbox and the trash box so its gone and I have no intention of responding. I have also blocked him in as many places as possible.

Do I send this text to my friend? Does she really need to know? I'm not sure... I am very conflicted about this... I haven't visited her a home for a long time because there is always a risk her son could be there.... I've never told her this.

This is FYI. (sons name) sent me an email late last night which I have deleted. I will not be responding and I have blocked him in as many places as I can.

She has sure made a rod for her own back ....

I have been very accommodating but my limit has been reached and its weird how I have blanked out so many incidents. Another one is her being really critical of an old friend of mine just after she met her .... really not nice. Sadly it is now obvious Mother and Son are not that different.

It has been really helpful getting this out here..

Brew now...

How can your friend be uninvited to the wedding yet the happy couple plan to live with her after they are married? I should imagine this is going to create an even more uncomfortable atmosphere in the house.

I am speculating but given their past behaviour this is probably what will happen but I won't be making any attempt to find out!!

UPDATE .. I bumped into her yesterday .. I did tell her about the email and deleting it and blocking her son. Its very sad but despite such a long friendship I've really lost interest so won't be going out of my way to contact her. She told me her son is still living with her but has been told to leave.....
