what do you do...

[samikitty]

when there's a huuuge thing about Friend #1 that you're dying to tell your best friend... but you're not supposed to know about it. and you only know about it because Friend #2 told you in knee-jerk reaction kind of way

I don't know what to say, but only that if I had friends like you to support me, I would want them to. The friend doesn't want anyone to know but she let it slip, probably meaning she does want support but doesn't know how to ask for it.

yeah, but if i reach out to Friend #1, i'm kind of screwing over Friend #2 because i'll basically be announcing that we talked about her behind her back. and it may look like Friend #2 can't be trusted with a confidence.

well, right now, with regards to Friend #1, i'm just poking them on IM and stuff, per usual, and seeing if they'll tell me directly about what's going on.

but i reeeeeeeeeeeeeally want to tell my bestie. hahahaha.

If LJ had a Like button, I'd be using it for this plan.

That sounds complicated, messy and with the potential to cause huge drama. Hopefully you will hear it from the source soon so you can respond.

This sounds like a great idea to me. People are Hard.

I hate that moment where you only realize that something should be confidential after you've already mentioned it to someone else.

Best/worst example lately:

Friend A: i had a fight with someone i care about today and i feel really lousy
Me: (to friend B in another window) Oh no! FriendA is feeling sad! What should I tell her?
Friend A: ...So I sure hope FriendB will forgive me soon for screaming at her!
Me: ...
