So me and my former best friend haven’t talked in months. We fell out because of drama involving his current girlfriend (yes, the same girl in this story).
Out of nowhere he texts me asking to hang out. I thought it was random but whatever. Later that day he keeps telling me to text his girlfriend. I said no like 5–6 times because it felt weird. I didn’t want to get involved in their relationship, especially since that’s literally what caused our friendship to end before.
I’m not into her at all. I was actually thinking about asking out her sister at one point, so I had zero reason to try anything. But he kept pushing and pushing. So I finally sent her a simple “hey, are you okay?” message. She replies normally.
Then I find out he told her not to respond to me if I ever texted her. So basically he set up a situation where it looks like there’s something between us. They end up having a huge fight because she replied. She calls me confused and explains everything.
So I call him and ask what the hell is going on. I tell him I’m going to tell her he was the one who told me to text her.
He starts begging me not to and says our friendship is done if I tell her. He also says I shouldn’t care because I have nothing to do with her.
I told her anyway.
He has cheated before, so part of me feels like he was trying to create drama or distract from something.
Now I’m wondering if I should have just stayed out of it.
