She probably met him and they really liked each other, but she didn't want to hurt you, but she really wanted to be w/ a guy she liked. You shouldn't get too worked up about it, b/c if you didn't really get too far w/ this guy and she did, she is obviously the right person for him. I got a question about someone liking their BFF's bf, and he liked her back, and they really wanted to go out, but they both didn't want to hurt the BFF. I think that your situation is kind of like hers, and your BFF and guy friend really do care about you, but it's just a weird situation for them to face b/c you don't like it.

Mercy_x_Me answered Saturday November 19 2005, 2:08 pm: Well, see, here's the thing. If she has been your friend for a long while, you can't give her up now. Sure there's hurt...but you need to tell her that! Not ignore her or isolate yourself. She might've figured that you were over him. Maybe it would've been more appropriate for her to ask you how you felt, but who knows. Not everybody is the same on that rule. It's not like she stole him from you. You and that guy weren't/aren't together. She might think your way done with him. The best thing to do would invite her over or call her up and tell her the truth about how you feel...explain it calmly so you guys don't have to fight. Make sure it's clear to her that you don't want to lose her friendship. Good Luck! [ Mercy_x_Me's advice column | Ask Mercy_x_Me A Question ]
brokenagain answered Friday November 18 2005, 8:48 pm: ok i understand what your saying but listen to your words"i moved on" and "it didnt work out between us" yes it is pretty rotten of her to go with him after she knew your story--but eventually she may realize he isnt what she wants--and she will still have you and vise versa--tell her how you feel but then say i wish you the best of luck--im not saying you and her and him should hang out as friends-i would back away if you cant handle it--seeing them together--but let her know your hurt but your still her friend--its hard and it is also your decision based on you moved on and you dont have feelings for this guy--dont stoop to her level of betrayal your better than that and she will see that in you and he may too and he will realize what he doesnt have! good luck hope i could help [ brokenagain's advice column | Ask brokenagain A Question ]
