Best friend dating ex?

[Lilly]

My best friend, we'll call her Sam, and my ex, we will call him Albert, are dating. Sam was my first real friend when I first came to Wylie (my new school). I had just moved in with my dad, my mom and step dad just split up, and a few months before I had gotten out of a relationship that really hurt me. Being my best friend, Sam knew all of this and more. We spent before school, lunch, after school, week ends, and holidays together. We were as close as sisters. Albert and I dated for almost a year. Anytime we had relationship issues, Sam would give me advice. Albert and I were madly in love. You would never see us without each other. At football games, in the hallway, lunch, walking me to each class, dances, the mall, everywhere. We were always together. He was the first guy I ever trusted that much. He was sweet (like the sweetest guy ever), caring, gentle, loving, affectionate, funny, smart, and adorable. People didn't like him because he was emo and he had failed a grade. My preppy friends always put him down and I would always stand up for him (this caused them to hate me too). I didn't care what ANYONE thought. Albert was perfect in my eyes. He introduced me to his friends Grace, Autumn, Sabrina, Eric, Christian, and Ethan. They soon became my friends (till this day I'm still friends with them). So I was thankful to him for that. Sam always told me that Albert and I were meant for each other. She never did anything to harm our relationship. Albert and I broke up during spring break. I was crushed. I didn't eat or sleep for weeks. I just cried and moped around. She knew I was taking it hard. In May she dated one of my ex's. Her and I got into a fight and didn't talk for a month. On the last day of school we made up and became close again. Her and I hung out every week in June. One night I went with my dad, brother, and step mom to Prime Time. We were leaving right as 'Teen Night' was starting so my dad let me stay with my friends. I had seen Albert and knew he was there but ignored it. I saw Sam with our other friend Hailey and we all hugged and greeted each other, everything seemed normal. Until I went into the game room 30 minutes later with some friends to see Sam sitting on Albert's lap. I was crushed. I went through the night, pretending I was fine with it, smiling and laughing with my girls. I texted Sam later that night and told her how I felt about everything. She sent back ":(". And after that we didn't speak unless we had to. I still don't know what to say to either of them. If your best friend cries over a guy, you cant date them. It cant even be considered. What do I do? Am I wrong for feeling betrayed..?

Honestly, if she was a true friend she wouldn't have even looked in his direction. She would have wrote him off as scum who broke her best friends heart. I agree with Damia. The truth is, girls are heartless, cold bitches when they want to be. No matter what, intentional or not, we are always competing with each other. It didn't work out between you and your ex, there's a reason for that. It's really not as much his fault as hers. Once you and your ex ended things, that was it, no more ties to each other. So who he dates shouldn't be held against him, he's no longer tied to your life. Now your best friend, that's different. She was still tied to your life. When he dated her he probably had no clue what was going on with you, if you'd be upset, or if you'd ever even find out. She knew it would hurt you and that you'd find out. It was her duty as your best friend, not to date your ex. She did it on purpose. You don't just 'fall' into a relationship. And the fact that she didn't even apologize makes it ten times worse. If you've forgave her once for this, then that just shows that she was taking advantage of your friendship. You should have told her to stop digging through your trash and find her own boyfriends. Seems to me that you're better off without both of them. Delete their numbers, block them on twitter, Facebook, etc.. And just move on with your life. Karma will eventually catch up to her and it wont be pretty.
