Would you tell your best friend you had a past with her husband, or take that secret to the grave?

One woman is carrying a secret that’s getting harder to ignore. Years ago, before she and her best friend were close, she had a casual situationship with a guy. Nothing serious came from it, so when she later realized he might be perfect for her friend, she introduced them without ever revealing their history. Fast-forward to today, and the introduction worked better than anyone could have imagined. Her friend married him, they had a child, and our caller is now so close to the family that she’s the godmother to their daughter. The two couples even hang out together, yet neither she nor the husband has ever revealed what happened between them years ago. Now every time her best friend jokes, “Istill can’t believe you found my husband,” the guilt hits all over again. There are no lingering feelings and everyone is happy, but she knows that if the truth ever comes out another way, it could change everything. Should she finally come clean, or could telling the truth cause more damage than keeping the secret?
