I have this best friend, and we call each other our long lost twin sister, coz we almost share the same thoughts. We knew everything about each other. Or so I thought.
Only recently I found out that she’s been keeping this huge secret about her from me, love life wise, for more than two years now and of our circle of friends, I’m the last person to know! She knows I know. I try to be ok with it, and in a way, I am, but… It hurts me to think that the so called twin sister I thought I knew like the back of my hand is a total stranger to me. There was so much I didn’t know.
This whole thing is putting a strain on our friendship, and I feel us both slipping away from each other. I want us to be ok again. Any advice?
Weezy: Just for a moment, take your hurt and anger and set it aside and ask yourself this: “Why did she feel she couldn’t tell me? What were her fears?” Did she think you wouldn’t approve? Did she think you liked the same person? Did she think you would be worried for her? etc. etc.
When you are ready, go to her and say, with only care and concern in your voice, “Why did you think you couldn’t tell me? Let her talk.
Then you can tell her how hurt you were and that you hope she knows that she can tell you anything.
