My best friend hadn’t had a date for months and was desperate. I got tired of hearing about her woes so I set her up with a friend. The problem is he’s married and has cheated on his wife for years.
They went to dinner and ended up making out. I feel bad and guilty because I set them up thinking it would be a one time thing but now he’s wanting to go out with her again. He’s begging me to give him her number. I know if he calls her, she’ll go with him again. And I don’t want any part of it.
I feel responsible for what’s happening and I’m afraid my lover will find out that I set them up. He’ll be pissed and furious with me and probably want to break up. My boyfriend knows his friend is a lying cheating husband and condemns his affairs. I’m in the middle of this love triangle and I don’t like it. I don’t want to lose my boyfriend over a stupid affair. Should I tell my lover what’s going on or say nothin, hoping he won’t find out?
Seriously? What kind of brain damage must a person have to think setting their friend up with a married person is a good idea? I wouldn’t wish a date with a married man on my worst enemy, much less my friend.
Either you have a complete lack of forethought, a lack of respect for marriage, or both. Come clean and let your boyfriend see your true character.
Then pay for half the cost of the therapy your friend is going to need to recover from the train wreck you led her into. You’re about 50% responsible for her impending misery which comes from dating a married man.
