[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]The friend that shared this with you is worse than the friend who made the disparaging comment about your cooking.[/b] They were trying to hurt you and succeeded. The other friend was just venting and didn't expect to be snitched on.[/quote]

Can I play devil's advocate here? If my friend Ellen said something mean about my friend Sarah and Sarah thought that Ellen was her best friend ever and trusted her with her feelings and told her lots of things and I thought Ellen was going to reckless or flat out destructive with that information, I could see wanting to warn Sarah.

Now, in this case, I think you're probably right because WTF cares if someone says they're a bad cook? It's not like OP told the friend some deep dark secret and the friend betrayed OP's trust. The friend shared her opinion (which may or may not be true) about something trivial. So in that case, I agree that the other friend was just being a pot stirrer and should have stayed out of it.

I guess I'm asking if you agree that there are some things that someone should be told about when they're said behind their back?[/quote]
