He said, She said

She's talking to me. He's talking to me. I can't tell them that they are both talking to me. Sometimes, they tell me the same story but from their own perspective. One story comes out as drama, the other as a tirade. Don't ask me how that happened. At times, their stories are conflicting. I don't know who is telling the truth. All I know is that one of them is lying, I just don't know who. I can't accuse anybody of anything because I'm not supposed to know all the "facts". I'm caught between a rock and a hard place. It crossed my mind to let them just have a face-off. But I know that would be detrimental to my well-being. If and when they find out that they are both confiding in me, I'm sure they are going to be angry. But I did not betray their trust. I'm just being a sounding board. I'm toast. =o(
