We also believed that both of us would move on with our respective lives. Now, my ex has started dating my friend from school. She knows that I was going out with him so I don’t know what’s wrong with her. I want to get hold of her and tell her that he’s just playing games with her. What else can explain this sudden shift from his equation with not only me but also my best buddy? I’m so messed up.
