    Got burned on this very subject last year....was not good.

    I have an illustrator friend who I was working towards collating with and it was looking like we were going to make a go of it as a business....I'd finally be doing what I really wanted to do.

    She saw (long story) a off the cuff text from her about 'how she wished she could have been with me doing this years ago'....out of context....she went fucking ballistic and our relationship almost ended.

    Needless to say there was nothing going on, the friendship was destroyed and my opportunity for happiness was fucked.

    • the first "She" in your third paragraph is your wife/gf/partner, right?dorf
    • sounds like this was based on an underlying trust issue more than anything elsemonospaced

    • Perhaps...though I think she saw it more as a threat to her status quo. My friend lives 1,100k away. Not like I'm going to 'working late' anytime...see_thru

    • That sucks to lose friends over this. Especially that your girlfriend (?) didn't believe you even after you told the truth, in context.monospaced
