I’m not sure why someone else said that, but it wasn’t. I’d been pursuing a certain opportunity, which I’d broadcast to friends, family, coworkers, etc. For months, Friend heard how happy and optimistic I was. I told her what I was doing, asking her advice, which she gave, and giving her inside information as part of what I thought was building emo tional intimacy. Friend ended up getting that opportunity before I found out I’d been rejected. She left a folder in our booth at one of our happy hours that got knocked onto the floor. I cleaned it up. She never once let me know her intentions, which was hilari ous because I was going to find out anyway! I had to “untell” all those people, and it was even more humiliating because they all knew Friend, too. She frittered the opportunity away and left town. I have a draft response to her that says, “Our friendship didn’t drift apart... I ended it because of your actions, which include dishonesty and lack of integrity.” Friend never did own up to how long her lies by omission had been occurring. I hope this update clari fies things. — Are You [Bleeping] Kidding Me, again It does, a lot. Thank you for the update, and, even though it was two decades ago, I’m sorry for your slow-rolling humiliation. Objectively speaking, though, it may have been less of a face-pie than you thought it was. Your pain is 100 percent real, but humilia tion is disproportionately huge for the person feeling it. The sense you were diminished by this in the eyes of others was and is probably unfounded. That doesn’t make Friend’s duplicity okay. Lesser deceptions end friendships permanently. Again, though, there is objectively another side to this: Some omissions are straight-up treachery, but some times they’re just runaway awk wardness or cowardice. She could have intended to tell you, chickened out a bunch of times, then panicked because she waited too long as you told everyone you knew that you were going for it. Why do I presume to defend her, at the risk of ticking you off or inval idating you? Because I watch and think about and read about people all day, and it is so incredibly com mon to believe people who hurt us are evil when a lot of the time they’re tormented, sloppy, weak. I think it might be a weight off your chest to mentally reframe this person as tormented, sloppy, weak instead of evil, and forgive her once and for all — even if you opt for “delete.” Chat with Carolyn online at noon each Friday at www.washingtonpost.com.
