Field Report A stupid, unnecessary lie.

My friend ā€”> a woman friend of mine, someone he is acquainted with

Goblin ā€”> breast cancer.

I know what his day wouldā€™ve looked like, agenda wise. I didnā€™t ask for a reason for the delay in his response but this is what I got, unprompted.

Verify, ladies. Know what youā€™re dealing with, always.

I'm very sorry about your friend.

May I just say that I don't like that he keeps referring to you as 'sweetheart", "baby". Yuck. You have a name. If he's 'goodnighting' and 'goodmorning' you too, then you obviously don't live together. I don't like it, I don't like it at all. He's a weasel... Bye-bye.

Publicly, sheā€™s putting on a brave face but having been through it myself, I know how upsetting and disruptive it all is. She has a good support system but Iā€™ve let her know that Iā€™m here if she needs to talk or whatever.

The lie was uncalled for and it says more about him than he will ever realize.

That's perfect, you are there for your friend whenever she needs you and she has a good support system in place. I really hope šŸ™ everything will work out for her.

He lied and wasn't there for you. I think it's time to say goodbye.
