I hate knowing secrets (kinda long, sorry)
UGH. I hate knowing secrets. I needed to tell somewhere....so here goes.
My best friend (my MOH) met and starting dating a friend of DH's at our wedding. Last Wednesday he broke up with her. Said he wasn't happy, and didn't want to be attached. (They live like an hour apart, and he owns his own construction business. He told her when they started dating he was REALLY busy and didn't have a lot of spare time, but they decided to give it a go. I think everyone knew it wasn't really going to last forever. Plus, this is a rebound for my MOH. She was engaged and was supposed to get married a few weeks after me. Over the summer, her ex-FI called it off.)
She is obviously upset about the break up. The kicker (i.e. secret part)? The day he broke up with her (over the phone, btw) she found out she was pregnant. He doesn't know yet. She was so shocked when she found out that when he called and dumped her, she couldn't get the words out out. Plus, I think she wanted to tell him in person. The next day she was trying to stop freaking out, and the next day (New Years Eve) he left for Mexico for a week (or was supposed to anyway). She called Saturday night and told me because she is freaking out and needed support. She hasn't told her family yet. She knew she couldn't wait until this coming weekend (when he was scheduled to be home) to tell someone.
Then, DH's was talking to his brother yesterday. BIL mentioned he didn't think said ex-boyfriend went to Mexico, that the friend he was supposed to go with called it off because of a family illness. Lo and behold, DH's friend texted him today asking "Did you hear I broke up with her?" So my BFF thinks he is in Mexico, she is freaking out about how to tell him, and thinks she has to wait at least a week to even try to get ahold of him. He is actually here, she doesn't know and he has NO idea about the whole thing.
My DH knows also because he was with me when she called. She knows he knows. We feel so bad, but are trying to stay out of it. I don't want to end up in the middle, ESPECIALLY since we are friends with both of them. But I hate knowing because he doesn't know yet.
Ugh. Just had to share with...someone.
