She said
“Your man who you took vows with, who is the father of your kids. Who is your husband or your significant other or boyfriend is not my best friend okay? I am your best friend and I see no reason why he should know my business. My best friend contract is with you and I and not you and your significant other.
You know it breaks my heart to see many female friendships actually hit the rocks because of this mistake a lot of us females make.
I understand, you know he is your guy you guys are best friends when you guys took the vows to become one so therefore, he has to know everything that is going on but if you love your friends and you really want to have them in your lives and you cherish your friendship. However long or short the friendship has been because friendship is not a thong of years. Longevity as I grew older doesn’t define a solid friendship.
I think protecting them should come second to none as you want to protect that man, right? And if your best friend confides in you about something she is going through or something that is happening in her life. About the guys, I said guys because if she’s seen guys nobody is here to judge anybody that are on her case, whatever she is doing with her life your husband or your boyfriend should not be privy to that information because guess what, he’s not her best friend right?
And sometimes you now wonder how when you say you are going to hang out with this friend your man has an issue.
It’s the things you tell him. What’s so good and so fun while you both are laughing, you say you know she is dating this person, oh that’s the guy that bought her this. My business is none of his business okay the same way you protect him and you never want to air his dirty laundry out there to me your best friend is the same way you shouldn’t want to do mine honestly.
And even if you confide in me about your man I would not discuss your man with my man. I think that all these things can be avoided.
And even if you confide in me about your man I would not discuss your man with my man. I think that all these things can be avoided.
I have heard too many stories of females now saying things like you know my man just started acting strange, he used to like her before all of a sudden you can’t hang out with that person. She is a wh#re. It’s the things you say. Honestly sometimes you guys just get yourself so carried away that you start to air your best friend business and he has friends, he has people he knows, he is not bound by loyalty to keep her secret so if he sat somewhere and talking about her, he can give a cent or two and guess where that came from? You talking about your friend.
Resist the urge even if she calls you to speak to you about something personal if your man is there you can excuse yourself or just text her that you will catch up with her in a bit. And don’t come with my man is mature he can handle this; No no let’s stop doing that, I know couples’ gossip at night you people don’t have anything to talk about ,talk about the wind ,the air ,talk about counting sheep, talk about whatever not your best friends business”
I see No Reason to Discuss My friend To My Hubby, My Friend Secret should end with me..
ReplyDeleteShe's Absolutely Right..
Hello iya Boys

If you need to use your friends confidential gist to spice up your marriage then you need to review your friendship with your spouse and what’s keeps you guys
Deleteyour friend confiding you is gist that spices up your marriage... wow... i pray your friends come to the realisation that their personal lives are a source of entertainment for you and your hubby and they do the needful...
DeleteI’ve kept my personal business away from my married friends because of this. Immaturity!
ReplyDeleteIf someone confides in you, do not tell another soul, no matter who they are.
ReplyDeleteBabes do this thing alot, reason why I know what to tell my friends.

Spot on Toke. I once had a nasty friend that does this. She isn't even married but has a twin brother. She tells her twinnie absolutely everything.
ReplyDeleteNeesolah
The truth is that they do not care about the gist o
DeleteMen that will even forget you told them about it after some minutes
I pity who think say na that your gist dey bother guys😍
Men are not stupid, they are recording the gist
DeleteYes,even family secrets and issues
ReplyDeleteI share same mindset with her and this is just how I am, a loyalist to the core. I no kuku get strength for too much talk.
ReplyDeleteJust what I told someone sometimes ago,she told her husband the lady is a shut,only to find out that her has gone to knack the lady. And that 1 is not ready to let go
ReplyDeleteDon’t always be too quick to press send or publish button. Go over whatever you want to send first to correct errors and mistakes. This advice applies to all and sundry
DeleteThe husband is a goat
DeleteBig goat🐐
DeleteI totally agree with her 💯
ReplyDeleteMy gender is on this table
ReplyDeleteShe's right.
ReplyDeleteA lot of women do this.😎
Spot on Toke. Not everything should be discussed with your significant half or best friends
ReplyDeleteRelationship wey wan sweet go sweet, no use your friends' business spice up your relationship. Avoid cho cho cho!
ReplyDeleteGbam!
DeleteI had a friend on this table, anything you tell her, she must tell her hubby. imaging telling her husband that her sister had several abortion in school,one of our friend, got pregnant for an Americana but when the guy refused it, she aborted and it affected her womb.
ReplyDeleteThe one that off me was telling her husband her dad used to beat their mom....abeg she too talk,
I wasn't left out, told her hubby I was a virgin that I am the holy Mary in their group and this man would still tell someone that is close to me.
It's only a handful of women that keep secret. Be careful because the only secret is what is inside your mind. Anything your tell another person friend or no friend is no more a secret. Anything can happen. Guard your tongue with all deligence.
ReplyDeleteLadies do this a lot, I don't understand what they're even trying to achieve ..
ReplyDeleteTo be sincere,only few people can keep secrets..
ReplyDeleteLadies sitting comfortably on this table.
ReplyDeleteEven some men do that alot..
Loud it
ReplyDeleteI believe once anything leaves your mouth to someone else's ears, it is no longer a secret. The thing is to be mindful of what you tell people because majority cannot hold secrets.
ReplyDeleteI rather send in chronicles here to get advice from Iya boys and BVs than talk to any friend about what I consider secret.
By the way, I want to say thankyou to Aunty Stella and all BVs ; I don learn alot from all of una.
Toke i agree with you on this...but you're looking so much like Tiwa
ReplyDeleteSound advice for mature mind. Toks thank you
ReplyDeleteLadies keep your shit to yourself. Handle your shit by yourself. All of una wey still dey do friend, e be like say you never learn. I no get friend ohhhh. I go laugh with you but once I enter my house you don’t matter.
ReplyDeleteHow you feel should be in your heart. Your friends should not know about your mistakes ohhhh. Them go spread am like wildfire. Women are not each others friends. The best way to be friends with a person is to make sure they don’t know anything about you apart from the basics.
