Dear GhanaWeb,
I was friends with this girl who was about to get married. Since I was into event detailing, she asked me to provide some services for her wedding, which I agreed to do without charging for the workmanship, as my contribution to her special day.
When I reached the groom styling aspect, I interacted with the groom for the first time, and he was friendly and jovial, which made it comfortable for me to work with him.
Over time, my friend seemed to develop some discomfort, though she never directly addressed it with me. The groom and I both attended the same high school and studied the same course, so we often chatted, shared memories, and had common topics to discuss.
Despite this, I made sure to follow my personal principle of never meeting him alone without my friend or having private conversations with him. It’s a practice I’ve stuck to throughout my career, and I’ve always been glad I did.
After the wedding, I noticed my friend started acting distant toward me. She seemed to be trying to detach herself, so I decided to bring it up and ask what the problem was. She told me that her husband had advised her to let go of all her single friends, including me, and focus on building a new life with new circles.
This struck me as strange because her husband didn’t seem like the type to say something like that, but I didn’t feel it was my place to question it.
I respected her decision and moved on. Over time, I realized she had a tendency to make subtle remarks about friends who were envious of others’ successes and tried to steal their spotlight, but I never thought of it in relation to myself.
A year later, I was organizing and hosting a business conference at a prestigious hotel, and I saw my friend’s husband there. His company was one of the sponsors. When I saw him, I chose to completely ignore him.
He kept looking at me, seemingly expecting a reaction, but I stayed in my lane. I couldn’t shake the feeling that he might’ve told my friend to stop being friends with me, thinking I had no business being cordial with him.
During the lunch break, he walked over to me and asked why I was ignoring him, as if I didn’t know him at all. I didn’t want to bring up the issue, but I felt I had no other choice, so I explained the situation based on what his wife had told me.
He was surprised when I shared what she had said. Then, he told me that he had asked his wife about me and even requested my number from her.
According to him, my friend had told him that I said I didn’t want to have his contact because I only saw our relationship as business-related.
He said he told her to let me know that he just wanted to recommend me to others, but my friend then told him that if I had any recommendations, they should come through her first.
Then he told me that he had given my friend two clients to pass on to me, but my friend had told him I was fully booked on those dates and couldn’t take on the work.
He seemed surprised when I told him that his wife had mentioned this. I was also surprised because my friend had never brought up any client recommendations to me. He then called her on the phone, put it on speaker, and shared everything I had said.
The silence that followed from my friend was deafening, and it was clear that guilt was weighing on her. He eventually ended the call.
Later, she called him back, and things escalated quickly. She asked him what the two of us were doing together and accused us of seeing each other.
She then told him that I was “so pretty” and that she was afraid I might try to steal her man, which was why she had acted the way she did.
She admitted that she suspected I had feelings for him. I just laughed, though she didn’t know I was listening in on the conversation. After some back and forth, her husband asked me if I wanted to hang out with him.
I was so angry at what my friend, I wanted to pay her back for what she did to me so I agreed to go out with her husband.
When we went out that night, I tried seducing him and he fell for it as if he was already interested in me. He turned me on, so quickly we went to have sex in his car.
The feeling was amazing and I enjoyed every bit of it. I just wanted to revenge my friend but our relationship got intense.
Her husband always comes to my place and we are mostly having sex. He is not attracted to his wife anymore and I didn’t plan for all of this to happen. I feel like I’m gradually breaking someone’s home.
My mind is not at peace knowing my friend is not happy because of me but she doesn’t know the woman behind this. What should I do to end this?
