i didnt know my friend had a boyfriend till i find out after she broke up with him. she dated him for 3 days and broke up with him because he put his arm around her. she only told our other friend Becky about it. Lara and I know each other for 3 years more than she know about Becky, i ask Lara why she didnt tell me she had a bf and she look at me with a frown then looked away saying "i tought becky told you" "no, i found out after you broke up with him, its right for the person who is going out with someone to tell there friends not expect the other friend tell every one" i said she reply "whatever"
i just dont get why she acted that way?
i dont know the guy it was some dude in her class, and i thought friends talk about there dates i do to her?

LM answered Wednesday April 2 2008, 7:46 pm: Well if they dated for three days, they might not have considered themselves boyfriend and girlfriend that soon. Since this guy was "some dude in her class" it's entirely possible that they went on a date or something and it didn't work out so they broke up. As for why she didn't tell you, well, she'll know better than we do. If I had to guess, I'd say that she assumed you already knew (because of her telling Becky). Since she asumed this, she may not have wanted to tell you repeatedly "HEY GUESSS WHAT! I'm going out with him!" almost like rubbing it in your face; it could maybe come off as making you jealous.
Or maybe she just didn't want you to know. Some people (myself included) prefer not to tell every tiny detail about their relationships (some people don't say anything at all). Granted it's a bit extreme not telling good friends about boyfriends, but that may just be who she is. You would have found out at some point (and you did). Best bet would be to ask her what's up, but don't get mad about it unless you want her mad at you, too.
