Message from his friend

[klm2018]

So this morning I woke up to a strange message from a friend of DP who I have only met once years ago saying ' I have a problem with xxxx and was hoping I could have a quick chat with you'

My gut is telling me to tell DP and forget about it but my worry is that he will play it down or not tell me what it's about. I don't believe we should have secrets. However if he will only play it down I am tempted to reply to his friend to try to find out more.

What would you do??

yes i'd ask the friend. it may be important.

Definitely ask the friend! It could be anything! Just reply, sure, what’s up?

@klm2018 have you messaged/called him back yet? The longer you leave it the bigger deal it is becoming.

Find out what the problem is then take it from there.

Not enough information to give advice yet imo

Sorry everyone, been working

Messaged him, he said he's been worrying about him recently as has seemed stressed and working very hard. Said he is working himself into a grave and not making time for anything in life that he used to, football etc

I'm in agreement. Will talk to DP later this evening

Thanks for all the responses....great forum

He sounds like a good friend, I’m glad it’s sorted now.

What an amazing friend DP has! I hope DP listens to you and makes time for himself to relax.

A great friend! Feel bad now for barely knowing him!

Oh, how sweet of him. I'm pleased your dp has friends like that and a partner like you.

What a thoroughly good egg. I'm gutted for your DH that he's feeling that way but I'm really pleased he has friends who care like that and for you that it's something you can take action on and hopefully improve.

Love this thread! What a great guy.

Sounds like you DP has got a good friend.

Nice outcome! Hope you and DP can work out how to get stress levels down.

Aww hope he's less stressed soon

What a great friend! Glad it was something like this and not something sinister. Hope you can get your dh to start taking it easy!

Has he got a birthday or any landmark coming up? They might want your help in a surprise "lads weekend" kind of thing??

Oooh sorry, seen your response, there being no blue to see your response threw me.

Great friend! Nice when it all works out.

He sounds like a really good friend. Not many genuinely caring people around - treasure him.

Oh bless

Sounds like a nice guy.
