Hi Bluesses,
YOU tell everyone you’ve been together for almost a year!! One starred FB status update should do it. A new profile picture of you and him. Saying, “After the most romantic year ever, BF proposed!” You can then write that, yes, you two “kept it a secret until the time was right!”
He will get pissed that you let the cat out of the bag. The “friend” will be hurt. His other friends either already know, or don’t care. On the dark flip side it IS possible he’s been lying to everyone. That the “friend” is really his other GF and the other friends actually think that.
Time to regain your pride by letting the truth set you free.
In future conversations say “us” and “we” a lot. Never show any schism between you in public. And don’t mention this to him again. If he rants and raves say, “Oh, don’t be silly” and let HIM deal with the fall out from the “friend”. Who will think that HE was cheating on HER with YOU!
Obviously, I’m supposed to write “Call off your engagement” but if it’s in less than 100 days I know that won’t happen, thus the throw back advice above!!
This was a classic “Don’t pee on my leg and tell me it’s raining” situation.
Blessings,
Inky
