Dear Nina,
The other night I went out and tied one on. The next morning I wake up naked in bed with my best friend’s boyfriend! He asked me not to say anything - it would be our little secret. Since then I have felt nothing but guilt when I am around them. What do I do Nina? I feel I must get this off my chest.
-Not such a good friend
Dear no-good friend,
You should feel awful and with good reason! You are responsible for your own actions no matter how loaded you were at the time. You broke the cardinal rule: "Thou shalt not sleep with your sisters Man". If it were me, (amen that it isn’t but if it were) I would own up to my friend. Explain the whole situation, including how he asked you to not tell. Your friend will be upset, yes, but it’s better he find out what kind of man he is investing his emotional being into. The boyfriend should be exposed no matter the cost. Honesty is the best policy in any relationship, be it friendship or love. What’s done is done now, take responsibility and that nagging feeling will dissipate. If you don’t, it will eventually destroy your friendship anyway. But if you’re honest, at least you will be able to look him in the eyes. I realize I have been rather harsh, but remember - we all make mistakes. What is really important is how we deal with them. It helps us grow and learn. So get it together!!
Sincerely Nina
