I just caught the person who an hour ago I would have said was my closest, dearest friend in a HUGE lie. The really bizarre part is that I wouldn't have cared a bit if he had told me the truth about the situation.
Last Wednesday he lost his job. He called me and told me and we made plans for that night. Twenty minutes later, while I was in class, he called me and informed me thet he was driving down to visit his mother in Phoenix.
All right, kind of let down at having our plans cancelled, but he's a spontaneous person like that and he's really close to his mother.
That night he called me and told me he had changed his mind and decided to surprise his father on a businedd trip to Denver. This seemed wierd to me since his dad is local and they see each other weekly. I thought about it and decided that he probably wanted to spend time with his father away from Evil Step Mother of Doom and the toddlers.
I've spoken to him a few times since then, and he's told me that he's been lounging around in a hotel room, sick as a dog. Aww. I promised him some homemade chicken soup when he returned.
A few minutes ago, while randomly cruising through blogs, I discovered that he's been staying with and going places every night with some other guy's girlfriend in Colorado.
OKAY, so that explains a lot.
I'm not mad about the fact that he's there with her. I'm happily engaged, and if he's got someone to spend time with, GOOD FOR HIM! Goddess knows he's a very lonely person and he could use the company.
Yet...why, Why, WHY did he feel that he had to lie to me about it!? This pisses me off to no end! I trusted him with my deepest secrets, things only DF had known about. He is the only other person I have even come CLOSE to trusting as much as I trust DF. It hurts so much that someone I put that much trust in felt that he couldn't trust me enough to be honest about what he was doing.
I'm glad he's three states away right now, becaus eI have some choice words running through my mind. The question is, do I bring this up to him when he returns? If so, how?
