Search Results: ex boyfriend best friend

My best friend (WHO HAS A BOYFRIEND) of 6-7 years kissed a guy i used to hook up with.
Background
The guy and I had a horrible falling out, he said awful things and never apologized for them. My best friend has seen me cry over this guy. A year later he comes back to hanging around the friend group. I have a boyfriend now and i love him so much. The guy came up to me and said “we are cool” even though he never apologized so of course I hate him. He also tries so hard to become friends with my boyfriend, but of course he isn’t having it.
I just recently threw a party for my boyfriends birthday. The guy ended up showing up because of the mutual friends we have. Of course my boyfriend and I did everything in our power to avoid him all night, and he would still try and talk to me.
When I was dealing with a drunk person during the party my friend and the guy went to go get food. She got in his car!!! Of course it's the one time I wasn't in the room. Like an hour later they come back into the party with food, then my friend comes and stands next to me and doesn't say anything. There's also a chance they went to the bathroom together. The next day I ask her what happened and she admits that they kissed. She claimed she shut him down but then immediately contradicts herself with her next text. This is not the first time she has displayed “pick me” behavior
I guess it's just never been this bad. Her boyfriend emotionally cheated on her a month or 2 ago and ever since then she has been manipulating him. I also maybe feel sometimes she might be jealous of me, not on no cocky stuff.

The cheating aspect aside, do we think I should or. Ever can forgive her. Should jus let that bridge burn no matter how long we have been friends?

Let's call my ex boyfriend for LUKE

Yesterday me and my best friend were texting about work and she suddenly texten this👇, but I tried to play it cool=

She= By the way, would it be okay if I come in contacted with Luke again? I don't want to do it behind your back, that's why I'm asking☺️

Me= As friends or a date?

She= Friends

Me= I was going to say that no matter what, you don't need my permission for that. Sure it's uncomfortable, to be honest, but I would never stop someone from being friends or anything with someone.

She= No, I know that! But I still wanted to ask you because I didn't want to go behind your back, you're still my best friend❤️

Me= That's my honest answer. Well thought out, that's my honest answer anyway.

She= And if you had said no, I wouldn't have contacted him

Me= Cute, but it's okay

She= Okay, good to know❤️
Me= yes

Story = so in 2023 me and this guy Luke dated from May- August, but broke up because he says he had issues with his family and work and is so stressed and can't jungle everything rn or give me the kind of man I want rn. So I thought that I should not be a burden and just accept his excuse and break up. During the first week we were dating , I had asked my friends if they knew him. my best friend sayd she knows him and that they had a small crush on each other when they were teenagers and he had kissed her on the cheek and run. I felt uncomfortable and even tho I had began to like Luke a lot, I was ready to end it, but then my best friend sayd that I don't need to end it because they don't have feelings for each other and that I should not let it come between me and love. So I trusted her words, but still felt uncomfortable and wanted to hear Luke's side of the story too if he likes her or if they were together of something long ago. He sayd no and a assured me that it was just a small crush back then and he doesn't feel anything for her. So I trusted him and felt less ucomfortable.

God I was blind...
