Hi Everyone,
I'm baffled and I don't know if I'm in the wrong.
I have a very over bearing friend who has to be involved in all aspects of my life. We are 37, to give some Info to the extent of this, I went out with a friend last week and posted it was the most fantastic night out, she didn't speak to me for a week and said I should consider her feelings when I write it was 'the most fantastic', apparently that line should be reserved for her.
I broke up with my ex partner last year and yes I whinged and took advice etc.
I bumped into him about 6 months ago and he was having therapy and a rough time with suicidal thoughts etc. I met him for a drink and have been chatting here and there and meeting up on occasion to try and help him through and maybe see what happened after he had completed therapy.
Anyway long story short, I have not told my best friend this information. I didn't really think it was my business to tell anyway what I'm helping with (the irony of posting on here) and also I wanted to navigate it on my own.
My friend has found out today and said she never wants to speak to me again as she looks like a mug for me not telling her I was doing this. I'm not sure why it's made her look a mug even.
I don't know why I have to say every part of my life to someone to be honest and I don't know if I've been the horrible person here.
We aren't back together, it's literal catch ups here and there with the view to maybe seeing where it could lead again when he's sorted his head out.
She instigated a conversation with him asking if he had spoken to me etc and kept plying him with questions about it, I'm pretty much done with him too because I feel my privacy has been massively invaded.
Am I massive twat here please?
