So two weeks ago my friend Katie (not her real name) told me she had a big secret she had to tell me and made me promise not to tell anyone. She told me that she was romantically and sexually involved with one of my friends Paul (also not his real name) who has been in a relationship with a girl for 2 years now. They’ve had sex several times and even said they love each other. Katie made him choose between her and his girlfriend and he chose his girlfriend.

Well a week passes and this has been the only thing on my mind and it was driving me crazy. So last weekend when I was drunk with some of my friends I told them about the cheating.

Fast forward to today and it all comes full circle and Paul finds out that people know he’s been cheating. He comes banging on my apartment door and my roommate lets him and Katie in and he comes charging at me ready to punch my face in. Katie and my roommate yell at him not to fight me so he restrains himself and yells at me for the next ten minutes telling me how I fucked up and that I had no excuse for what I did. He eventually leaves and Katie tells me she isn’t mad but just disappointed I broke my promise. But she also cried her eyes out and I don’t understand why but I don’t really feel much sympathy. So I was wondering if I’m just an asshole.
