To Tell or Not to Tell?

What would you do? If you found out something, that was a violation of trust and respect, that your best friends partner was doing, would you tell? Do you make the decision to tell them and run the risk that you will forever alter their life as they know it by telling them a devastating secret that only you can tell? Or do you continue to let them live the lie believing that nothing is wrong?

In all honesty I don't know. I mean I know that deep down no matter how much it hurt that I would want to know, because it is my right to know, because it is my life and no one else's? Shouldn't I have the right to know if someone is lying to me? Don't I have the right to direct my own life no matter how hard I have had it in the past?

At the end of the day I believe that people rise to the challenge, and that as is our human right, we will defend ourselves. That we will prosper rather than whimper in the corner like a beaten dog, we will do whatever it takes to make sure that we survive.

I hope and I pray that if something like this happens to me, that my dearest friend would say something to me, because the pain of finding out that my dearest friend allowed a lie to be perpetuated for a long time would be even worse than finding out about the actual problem, no matter how insurmountable it may be. I deserve the right to run my life and to gather as much information to make my own decisions.
