[quote=Anonymous]I was going to say that Jane needs to get over it, but now I wonder if pp are right that it’s maybe either hurt that there wasn’t a conversation/heads up ahead of time or embarrassment in front of mutual friends.  I’m thinking if you were a master craftsman and could build furniture and your friend John has been talking about having a dining table built etc, heads over our to Amish country and has a stranger make the table, never a courtesy conversation before and then invites you over along with all your close friends to celebrate the new dining room table - that could seem sort of awkward.

I do think your fiancée was right not to hire a close friend for her first home purchase.  But it’s also possible Jane could feel hurt about the way it was done. In the soft skills training I do for work, they talk about how intent and impact are not always the same.  To work through a miscommunication with someone sometimes it’s important to acknowledge the impact to that person even though that’s wasn’t your intent.[/quote]
