One recent time that I recall being anonymous by choice is when I gave honest and true advice to someone who was not my friend. In fact, it was relationship advice and what makes it worse in some people’s eyes was that it was advice to one of my friend’s girlfriend. Long story short I could see that together they were toxic and they weren’t making each other happy. I told him already that they should break up, but he is hanging on to it and just hoping things work out. So one day while his girlfriend was crying I talked to her and long story short told her that they should end it, listed the evidence and she agreed. After she ended it there was a brief period of sorrow, but then there was no more crying, heartbreak or off and on. Now the beautiful thing is that despite all the disagreements they had, they became friends again shortly after the breakup. I told them both to focus on themselves and they did. The twist is 2 years had past and they both grew and got back together. They have been together for 3 years and counting. My friend doesn’t know that I told her to break up with him, please don’t tell!
