You ever sell-out a friend?

[AAP]

Or rather sell-out someone who thought YOU were a friend, but you wasn't?

Got any Threw-The-Bitch-Under-The-Bus stories?

How about this scenario... you got a close friend of 10 years with a friendship you value, then you got just a "friend-friend". You know someone slightly above the level of acquaintance. This "friend-friend" considers you one of his closest and dearest friends. You dont share the same sentiment. You discover this "friend-friend" is doing something that is very hurtful/harmful/disrespectful/etc... to your real friend. You have proof in the emails he has sent you along with everyone else knowing the same as well.

Do you tell your real friend about this? Or keep quiet even though it is in the best interest of your real friend to know this?

Basically, I think what it calls for is another Stilletto Postcard Affair.

Suppose later you were confronted by the real friend who found out you were aware of this all the time and never said anything and he demanded to know why.

Yeah it is best to stay out of stuff like that for your sake , but it really does depend on the situation and how badly your good friend is being affected but this other person.
I think most people have been in these situation before and its not an easy one to answer not knowing the full story of events.

When you have a friend, you bear the burden of their secrets for a lifetime, without queston.

Compare that statement to having a 'friend-friend' and theres your answer.

im a fan of the "you might not like me, but youll bloody well respect me" school of thought, so i just tell people to their face what i think of what theyre doing

that being said, i dont like hurting peoples feelings (much) and so for the sake of tact (and avoid excessive drama) i would find a way to let your real friend know without actually snitching on the other guy
