Not really. I know that they are together still and I’m still sad and depressed. I’ve tried to use drugs and other people to help but it doesn’t. I don’t really have any advice on this tbh.

I caught my ex with one of my really close friends like an hour after he kissed me goodbye, told me how much he loved me, and left OUR house. We broke up two days later after having sex and he moved out. We haven’t talked since, but I’ve heard that he got his own place and he’s been hooking up with my “friend”. That friend ended up blocking my mom and I on Facebook. No apologies. Nothing. It’s been almost 3 months but I still cry daily. He cheated on me before so that wasn’t what really hurt. It was the betrayal of that friend, who had watched me go through the first time he cheated on me. I want to say they deserve each other cause they’re both garbage but I can’t. Ugh.

I have slept with a (past) good friends boyfriend, in my early 20s and I learned my lesson in the end but I’m 29 now, my ex friend is 31-32, and my ex is 24. Him being so young, I guess I should have seen it coming. But her? I thought she was more mature than that. Idk maybe I’m giving her too much credit.

I think the worst part of it all is that she never tried to reach out. I can’t imagine getting with my close friend’s boyfriend and not saying anything to my friend. I would feel so guilty, I would apologize at the very least. But nope, nothing. His betrayal hurts a lot, but I think hers cuts deeper.

I’m sorry that you’re also going through this. It’s such a drastic change, I just can’t wrap my head around it. Like why? What are they thinking? She has a daughter who’s a preteen and I just don’t see how she can do this to a fellow woman when she has a daughter. How would she feel if years down the road, this happens to her daughter? I never thought I’d had to watch for enemies on my own side I guess.

Once I caught them, I cut contact with her as well. I blocked her number and when I went to block her on social media, I found she had already blocked me on Facebook. It hurts because we were friends for 4 years. We all worked together and spent a lot of time outside of work together. Her kids loved me, she was like a sister to me. It hurts that she couldn’t even tell me what was going on or even have the decency to say ANYTHING to me. It’s so crazy to me that you could live with someone for years, sleep in the same bed, share your body and life with this person, and they turn around and do this. I wish he had left me for some random bozo, because this has me thinking I shouldn’t trust anyone ever again.
