you are right, the only reason there would have been to tell your ex about tommy was if you wanted to brag and make him feel jealous. YOU were being more responsible! The only way it would have been relevant was if you cheated on him with Tommy, or broke up with him for Tommy, neither are true. I don't know the whole story, but I assume that meeting Tommy put more of your unsatisfying relationship into perspective for you... you were talking bout being unhappy with your Ex A LONG time before I even remembering you and Tommy talking on the boards. With friends like that, right? Maybe she was just looking for attention and needed to deliver the juicy gossip. What a b@#$&. Forget about her! She will be lucky if you ever forgive her, her first responsibility was to be a good friend to you.
