Lo siento. I came back from vacation full of fresh ideas, but then some activities here got the best of me and I was more tired when I finished than when I left. I had brain freeze and writers block and hence no blogs. So I've spent the last couple of days gettin myself and house in order. For for the time being, check out the scenario below.
....and a hard place. topic taken from VOB92.9 Night Delight a few weeks ago. How would you handle this situation.
Dear Sharon:
I have been given some information which have left me between a rock and a hard place. My friend and his wife have been married for 15yrs and have a child. He recently came to me and told me that he's bi-sexual and has been for most of the time that he has married. He told me that because we are close friends that he's confiding in me and I'm the only one he has told. His wife does not know of his other life. I didn't either, neither did I suspect anything. Both the friend and his wife are good friends of mine. From all apparences and actions, he and his wife get along well and have a good relationship.
Sharon, I'm at a lost as to what I should do, tell the wife or keep my friend confidence and trust. I'm armed with knowledge that can help or hurt my friend and his wife. This predictament has left me confused, hurt, can't sleep or think straight. What should I do. Please help.....
Confused.
Well, I gonna left de door wide open first, before I make my comments. Should the friend tell the wife???????????? Where do we draw the line of trust and confidence??

She should keep her friend's confidence. Additionally, as terrible as the situation is, I am sure the wife would prefer to hear it first from her husband. For the wife to believe that she is the last to know would just be an additional blow to her marriage and self-esteem. When the wife finally confides in the mutual friend she should not even let the wife know that she was privy to the information before her (if she can get away with it. It's all about sparing her mutual friends from additional grief.
I would tell the friend to keep her/his mouth shut. Confiding in someone is not a licence to spread the "good" news.
This one is a toughie.I'd keep my mouth shut but it would be a hard task.On the other hand why is he telling me knowing there is a strong possibility I would not shut up
ya sure she aint get dat foolishness from r kelly trapped in the closet?
Regardless of where she get that story from, she and him better keep that s*it in the closet!!!
I ein kno where she get the story, but she sounded quite confused, or at least de letter. As for me, I won't want to be the barer of the news to the wife, but would surely try tuh find a way for the hubby and the wife tuh get to the heart of the matter. put some ideas or thoughts in she head or de daughter so that questions can be asked.
