My Friends Blocked Me Because I Lied About Being Single

Dear Tee, I recently told my three university friends that I’ve been married for 4 years and have 2 children and they blocked me. Should I have continued to lie about being single so they could stay my friends or are they jealous?

Let me clarify that I had no reason to lie about being single particularly as my girlfriends married after we left university. They all have 3 kids and have seemed to do being well before I left for the UK for my masters and stayed back afterwards.

My friends and I stayed in touch having conference calls every weekend for the past seven years but I didn’t tell them that I’ve been married for 4 years. I did a small private court wedding and I had my babies abroad. I finally told them last week and they all started blocking me.

But before then, they sent me long paragraphs to insult me. When I was lying about being single, they used send me pastors number to pray for husband for me, they used to say I’m 33 l should try to have children quick. But now I have told them, they have left me.

I am an adult, I don’t need friends to survive or anything but I am thinking to myself why are they so angry about life? Does it mean that they never cared about me? What if they have been gossiping with my name since? What should I do? Should I apologize?

Or should I let them go? I can always reconnect with other friends but these three are my main friends. I feel like regardless they should be happy for me.
