A Reddit user told her friend about the party and ruined her party … The woman could not calmly watch Kate crying on her birthday, and told her the truth: her relatives decided to arrange a surprise party for her.
“My friend Kate turned 25 last weekend. A few weeks before the holiday, her boyfriend Rob contacted me and asked me to help him throw a surprise party for the holiday. I was supposed to take Kate into town for lunch so the two of us celebrate her birthday while Rob and all the other friends are busy. But in fact, everyone is free and will be waiting for us at the restaurant. Rob rented a room in the restaurant and decorated it, “- said the author of the post.
The woman could not keep it a secret. During the trip to town, Kate looked very sad. A friend complained that her boyfriend, whom she has been dating for four years, did not even take a day off to celebrate her birthday. “She started to wind herself up and started crying,” the user remembered. In the end, she decided to tell that the birthday girl was going to have a party, and asked Kate to look surprised when everyone came out to congratulate her.
When her friends came to the restaurant and friends came out to them, Kate could not pretend. She admitted that she found out about the party during the trip in the car. Rob got very angry with his girlfriend's friend and accused her of spoiling the holiday. In his opinion, the woman should have come up with another way to convince her friend that her friends and boyfriend really care about her.
In conclusion, the author of the post asked the users how they assess the situation. Many commentators supported the narrator's decision to inform her friend about the party to calm her down. “You were traveling with a friend who was on the verge of a nervous breakdown and thought that no one loved her and everyone forgot about her birthday. You felt uncomfortable and decided to tell her everything to please her. There was nothing wrong with your actions, “one of the users wrote.
