Tonight's confession
I leaked the baby name after my friend kept crowd-testing it behind my back
My friend wanted our group to pretend we loved her baby name choice while she secretly asked everyone else if it was terrible. I ended the secrecy.
One of my closest friends is pregnant and has been obsessing over names for months. She told me she picked one, made me swear to secrecy, and then spent the next three weeks polling everyone else individually because she wanted 'honest' feedback from people who weren't emotionally attached to her.
The problem is that she also kept telling me to publicly defend the name in the friend group so she could see who the 'real haters' were. It started feeling weirdly manipulative. She was basically setting traps to see who would lie to her and who wouldn't.
When she asked me for the third time to act excited in the chat while she privately workshoped alternatives with other people, I replied in the main group that the name was clearly still up for debate and everyone should just say what they actually thought. She says I ruined a special moment and made the group pile on.
