Dear LIB readers; My best friend is dating my ex-boyfriend

From a female LIB reader
I am so confused about this situation and I want to know if I am over reacting or this is very normal? I have been friends with my close friend for 6 years (since 08)... when I got into my relationship with my Ex, I introduced them together. Everything I went through in my relationship, both good and bad, she knew about it.
To cut long story short, I was with My Ex boyfriend for 2.5 years and we broke up... But after our breakup, He still wanted me back and my so called friend knew about this ...She was one of those friends that said to me "Awwww, you two are so cute together, why don't you get back with him'
Well, I didn't take him back because I knew we were never going to work.(He is a big womanizer)
Even though we have been broken up for 1.5 years now, he only stopped making a move on me sometime in April 2013 after he surprised me at my  so called best friends house with a cake.(In-fact, she planned the surprise with him). I was flattered and happy but sometimes, somethings that are broken cannot be fixed.

Fast-forward one month after that, I met a new guy and so far our relationship has been a blessing to me.
Then I started hearing rumors that my home-girl is dating my ex... I didn't believe it seeing that we only officially ended things 6 months ago.
well, I walked in on them and dear Lord, You should have seen the look in her eyes.

And how she got busted was so funny...I went on a vacation in a different city with my current boyfriend and we went to a restaurant to eat one quiet morning...The waiter said to us that we have to wait 15 minutes and while we stood by the door waiting to be seated, Guess who walked in? My so called best-friend and my ex boyfrend?
She couldn't even look me in the eyes...she was so ashamed. And to add insult to the injury, she was wearing the dress I bought her 3 months ago on a date with my ex....

6 months and BOOM, Besty is dating my ex boyfriend. I am honestly very hurt by this and NO, Its not because I want my ex back but I feel she broke the code and she broke my heart...
Even when She eventually asked to meet with me, she didn't even feel sorry for her actions but rather, she justified what she did...she said to me "If you are happy in your relationship, why should you care"....

I know the right thing to do is forgive her but I feel so much anger towards her? do you think I am over reacting? please I want to know what your readers think about this situation.

Please post this Linda...I am never the type to send out something Like this but obviously I am hurt and I want to do the right thing.

  9. You being upset is absolutely normal. For people who experience similar breakups and have shared some personal information with their girlfriends, feel very betrayed. My dear you need to let it go. Find peace where u ars. Your will get what she deserves. Be weary of such people. Envy manifests in different ways.

  10. Its very hurtfull but You have to forgive her for ur own self...

  11. It really hurts bt u shld jst 4give her. They may b meant 4 eachoda.

  12. My Dear, this is my own opinion though, I think you re over-reacting. As long you don't have any feeling whatsoever towards you "ex". Don't think your Best friend has done any harm. Buh in the Nigerian context, I think what your BFF did is not right. Forgive nd Forget. The Koko is you are happy with your present relationship.

  13. Let me get this straight, you don't want the guy anymore but you are upset because your friend is happy with him? If the guy is her soulmate and makes her happy, she should not date him because he dated you before? Abeg park well jor. Is your name written on his forehead? Please face your own relationship and let them be happy.
    P.S. Your friend has NOTHING to be sorry for. You on the other hand ought to be ashamed of yourself. Except of course they started dating while you and your ex where still on.

  15. Babe move on. You're happy with your new guy. Your best friend deserves to be happy too. Maybe God used you to bring them together. Forget all that bloody code. Shit don't work no more. If she's truly your best friend and you love her as much as you claim and you know you can't be with your ex ever again then just be happy for them. This life is too short to be sprung on one guy and be keeping another one from your friend.
    Babes be happy for friend and be happy with your man. Life is too short! Y.O.L.O.

  16. dont be selfish, there is really no code or anything like that. you are through with the guy and the guy has moved on with someone he is now inlove with. you did not accept the man back and ur friend thinks she can stick to this guy. infact most likely sef the will get married cos they must really be in love to have made such bold move.

  26. Ok.first of all,u have to disconect from her,trust me dat relationship will not last,just forgive her n let them b.face ur man n try n make things work.she is not ir friend.

    ReplyDelete
  27. You need to move on girl. The relationship may not have worked for you, but may work for her. Whatever the conciquence that her cup of tea, aleast you are happy and fullfilled with your new man.

    ReplyDelete
  28. Truth is,she was never your friend,for her to jump into bed just six months after breakup clearly shows she's had an eye for him and probably sleeping with hm while you we're there,totally forget about her,don't bring her close to your current guy cos she would try to sleep with him and don't be angry with her cos someone would do the same to her very soon,enjoy your current relationship and be careful of those evil people out there that call themselves friends,

    ReplyDelete
  29. Since he is ur ex y worry let them be maybe the two are meant for each oda. And u have a new guy now so enjoy what u got.

    ReplyDelete
  30. Its felt so bad, but try to move on. She won't go any far with him and he give her the bitter pill (disapointment)! So move on

    ReplyDelete
  31. When it comes to dating a sister of a friend or the ex of a friend, there is only one solution to it;
    "You must be ready to lose that friend for a relationship." So she has a choice, the complexities of emotion and all that would come between you, your friend and your ex can never be handled! She shouldn't even had considered dating the guy, The fastidiousness of some friends is appalling! They are just too hard to please!

    ReplyDelete
  32. Girl,something close to this has happened to me. It was so difficult,I liked d guy my bestie used to see. She had her bf and moved on,few months later I started dating this guy cos he made me happy,I bet u will do the same if u wee in ur friend's shoes. It hurts,but I dont think its forbidden,@least u don't need him again,so make ur bestie happy.

    ReplyDelete

  34. Well if you have truly moved on I don't see why you should be angry after all you told her all bout him and she sure knows he is a womanizer.....the good luck to her! You happy where you are! Njoy ur present relationship. After all if he doesn't date her he would be dating someone else too.....

  37. Sweetheart, you are over-reacting. I know it hurts but you have moved on. You said he is a male whore , well not only is she feeding on your vomit, she's one of the many ladies to him and best of all?...... You set the pace, she is so behind that the only way to catch up is by climbing the ladder you have abandoned. See it this way......you are her role model.... Don't sweat it.... Don't fight them. You have found love somewhere else....embrace it darling....xxx

  38. U be Wale Adenuga Production?this na script for "Super Story"?I beg,move on!the guy made moves for a year and a half,and ur friend helped at each point,

    So u no know say Ur friend's emotion will start growing towards him after seeing the plenty nice things he tried to get U back?

    Bcoz of u,make the babe no come marry?at least the guy dint propose to u...u are just jealous and u obviously still like that guy,cozif u have really let go f him,we wunt be here talking about him.

  40. Duh! let them be,that he wasn't good to you doesn't mean he can't be good to another lady.
    He was destined to be your ex and maybe your friends husband.
    you're supposed to have moved on boo.

  41. well there is hardly anything u can do about it,let dem be but she is the fool nd ur nt,cause u had reasons to leave him,like u said he is a Casanova dats enough reason if in the midst of all these she is aware of nd she still went ahead to date him den she is foolish,he might leave her for another frnd of hers,what goes around comes around,u cant plant yam nd reap potatoes no,so just wish dem well nd stick to ur new boyfrnd be happy with him u gat nothing to loose,nd let nature take its course huh.

  42. The best revenge is moving-on gal frnd! But Make your Ex regret losing you' n make your next want to thank him for letting you go.

  43. Just leave her alone abeg . as long as God has blessed u with a good man. Just leave am. U better shun that friendship. Someone like that is a freaking time bomb. Her reply proved that. Move on with your new guy

    ReplyDelete
  44. You're through with that relationship and you've moved on with someone else innit? Why bother about who's darling your ex? If your friend can manage his downside and she's happy, give her a breather and let them be....

    ReplyDelete
  45. Its not going to be easy buh the truth is if they are meant for each other u don't want to be the one stopping them. And rily, u are in a relationship pls let dem be. I won't rily advice u are best friend with d girl anymore for a while or friends at all, but do not wish her anything evil or talk about it too much cos u might end up loosing ur present relationship cos of something dats not worth it.

    ReplyDelete
  46. Seriously I personally don't see anything wrong. You have moved on so the guy should and he probably asked ur friend. Like u said, she advised u to give him anoda chance unlike some friends.

    ReplyDelete
  47. My dear, u r overreacting. If u weren't in a relationship I would have said "oh! No wonder" but u r happy in another. Although she would have discussed it wit u b4 taking the step but I tink she got d creeps. Anywayz 4give her and be happy 4 them b4 ur adorable boyfriend would think u haven't gotten over him...and enjoy yours. Moreover its not worth a strand of hair on ur hair fightin over a guy!

    ReplyDelete
  48. My dear, just let it go. There's really nuffin bad in it, at least u're happy with ur new boo...LYNEA

    ReplyDelete
  49. It may be hard but you need to move on. He is your ex and your so called friend truly broke the code.
    You don't need friends like that but no point being bitter. Life is for the living.

    ReplyDelete
  50. If your friend is happy with him, pls let her be and mind your business..she even tried to make you and your ex come back but you refused.so? Why are you bothered..do you want to keep two Bfs?? Leave her abeg...

    ReplyDelete
  51. You are over-reacting. She at least chilled for you till you moved on. One man's meat is another man's poison. Be happy for them and hope for the best for them. I would have said forgive her, but there really is nothing to forgive. So just go get your best friend back.

    Cheers.

    Ayo.

    ReplyDelete
  52. You are most certainly not overreacting. The both of them know it in their hearts too. That's a violation of the first code of friendship. I'd never trust her again or even consider her my friend anymore if I were in your shoes.

    ReplyDelete
  53. Don't think thers anything wrong with dat though one man's meat is another's poison. Since u have a new boo, just let em be, pray dat it works out for them

    ReplyDelete
  54. Evry body is some one's ex. Abi u wan frend d guy ne? Pls let dem be. After all u said u dnt want again n its not lik dey ar cheatin on u or sumtin. dey hav both found sumtin gud. Y d beef?

    ReplyDelete
  57. it wont make any difference, u are already angry and hurt...so keep it up.

    ReplyDelete
  58. Dts a hard one to swallow,she did break d girl code,u shld forgive her thou,but d friendship can't be as tight as b4,u hv to be careful with her cos her dating him myt mean dt she was eyeing him during ur relationship with him nd dt kind of friend can't be trusted,forgive her,still be her friend but give her space.

    ReplyDelete
  59. My dear, you better ex her too. Good riddance to bad rubbish

    ReplyDelete
  60. Hiaaaa see wahala, watin you want us to do. This is not just a topic for discussion. But if you badly need something to do,Nne go and date his friend ok, make the jealousy balance ok or better still mind your own business,

    ReplyDelete

    ReplyDelete
  66. She did break the code, forgive her but never be close again she is the type of friend you don't introduce to your husband.

    ReplyDelete
  67. Babe, pls move on n enjoy ur nw love. 4get dat ur friend eva did dat bt bcareful. Some friends ar just beast.

  70. If u,re happy in ur present relationship then u let her be morova the guy wasn't created for u that's why u both couldn't be 2geda till nw.I. Know its vary pain but let it go pls just try

    ReplyDelete
  71. You are absolutely right with your feelings dear, you are allowed to feel hurt and that is understandable. But hey! Look on the bright side, you need to forgive her for your own sake and peace of mind. :)

    ReplyDelete
  72. Dat was wrong!!but ma dear u hv to let go dere is obviously noffin u kan do abt it!!!shit happens and who tld u d'relationship might eventually work out!!some gurls dou huh

    ReplyDelete
  73. I honestly feel the writers pain. I am also of the school of thots that blieve u do not date a friends ex. Esp when its still kind of fresh, memories are still fresh etc. That just means all the while one was in the relationship the friend never really wished it well as she wanted him (in my opinion). I just feel its just unfair.

    Well, it is what it is so try to forgive her so she doesnt occupy a place in ur head rent free. However, i don't advice u keep her as your 'homegirl'. Got to let her go

    ReplyDelete
  74. U guys already broke up maybe ur bestie&ex are destined to be 2geda,if u are happywith ur new bf then u shouldn't care

    ReplyDelete
  75. Since you are cool with your current boyfriend it should not be too much of a problem. Although i know what it feels like to be betrayed just také a chill peel and move on.

    ReplyDelete
  76. You must be an idiot. you want ur happiness and yet you don't want your ex to be happy, after all u said both of them try their efforts so that u can stay with ur ex but u refused, if u are hurt then u must be an animal. Mumu

    ReplyDelete
  77. You have a right to be hurt,I honestly don't know what I would do if I were in your shoes

    ReplyDelete
  78. Move on gurl...it shudnt bother u but don't make friends with her cos she can sleep wit ur husband too.

    ReplyDelete
  79. Why's ur pain abeg move on aint he supposed to date another gal that ur new bf nobi someone's ex. Abeg make we learn to let go

    ReplyDelete
  80. Yea t can hurt, ts normal to feel ds way, like some form of betrayal.but be the bigger gal nd walk away, you have nothing to lose, let them be, they 're ur past, concentrate on ur present rshp and be totally happy in it.don't lose ursef to ds Dia drama, ain't worth it.life s short forgive forget nd be happy.Dnt let them ruin ur joy.de say karma is a bitch, time wd reveal allthings.

    ReplyDelete
  81. but seriously it hurts..buh try and forgive her...ooooh she was wearin a dress u bought...Lol

    ReplyDelete
  82. First off i believe 2 people not within 3 people....so the your first mistake is telling people the good, the bad and the ugly of your former relationship. Also he is now your ex so if your friend is dating him it shouldn't get to you as i can see it is now..Probably you still love him and just trying to hide it.....Anyways move on and be happy else you will loose this your new relationship too and mind you relationships are suppose to be between 2 people.

    ReplyDelete
  83. Dearest I know ow u feel exactly,I'd advice u to let it b between d 2 of dem,u have a right to b angry dou,she did break d code. You shld distance urself frm her,best frnds don't date dia frnds ex,expecially 4 ladies. Pray for ur relationship to grow more fruitfull also pray for dias 2,pray dias crumble like d wall of jerico,d stupid bitch.

    ReplyDelete
  84. To b sincere,we r humans n u wil alwys feel bad eachtime u c dem,so I feel u stop seeing her til u hget ober it bt if u happen to meet her u cud greet her say hi ,chat a bit n free her bt try avoid seeing her cos wen u do see her u c betrayal..its human for u to feel dat way cos I wud also feel bad if in dis same situation weda I av a man already or noy,there's no point decievin ur sef darl

    ReplyDelete
  85. Eyaaa I knw hw u feel,but since u re with sm1 and happy wit him jst let dem bE and forgive her.

    ReplyDelete
  86. Forgive her and move on

    ReplyDelete
  87. My dear, not that I would I ever date my girl's sloppy ex but the truth is you now know her worth (which is cheap). And I know how annoying and painful is to see them together it is normal that you feel that way. But she is right, let them be since you are happy with your current boyfriend allow her enjoy your left over and forget the whole issue and your current boyfriend shouldn't see you getting mad over their relationship. Meanwhile, you guys (I mean you and your so called bestie) shouldn't be best friends anymore just casual friends will do. They are both not worth your stress. Always enjoy your boyfriend and your vacations.

    ReplyDelete
  88. you are not over reacting my dear.had the same experience,the girl told me "that guy is too cute shei snatching is allowed atleast you don't want to take him back" I broke up with the guy because i thought he was single not knowing he already married with 2 kids and wasted 3 years of my life.His mum played along with him playing inlaw to my parent.anyway moving on please break every contact with that bitch u called friend because she can kill you.
    Forgive if u can,i have not forgiven my own friend and will never forgive her.
    free the ex and bitch friend for life.forget they exist.
    very annoying people.

    wish you luck in your new relationship.I pray God will compensate you in the new one like he compensated me.

  89. No hunnay,u are not overreacting,some girls can be such back stabbers,sometyms I think its best 2 be alone wtout close friends sef.just 4give her and move on boo so u can have some closure but dis shud be a big lesson 2 u.

    ReplyDelete
  99. I don't think there's a code or rule stopping 1 from dating his/her friends ex. It feels awkward yeah, but since you've moved on it shouldn't bother you. We share same plight; I'm dating my ex's friend too for over a year now. Ex is happily married, and her friend is yet to inform her.

  100. Betsy has no class Sista, Frankly she is not ur friend. Might just hit on ur BF if ur back is turned. Take the next train out of razzville baby. It shows an envious nature and u got to be careful. Forgive and Forget especially her as a friend. Takia dearie, Do ensure she never comes close to ur current BF.

  102. Dis is the 1st time i'll be commenting on any issue on this blog, i'd rather read the story and feed my eyes with numerous comments. But I just have to make my opinion known on this issue. My dear, u are in no way over reacting, ur so called best friend broke the code and u need to let her know that, and do urself a favour by stop being friends with her. Dis is an unspoken rule with us women, u don't date ur friend's ex simply becos u feel they no longer together, even if u want to, u shld discuss dis with ur friend, wat am I even saying, don't even do it, it's wrong. That friend of urs has always got her eyes on ur ex even before u broke up with him. She is not a friend and u need to stop being friends with her. My opinion

  103. Hello girlfriend. It's normal to feel upset about this type of situation but ask yourself: 'why am i actually upset?... Is it because i know the 'new' girl he's going out with? Would i have felt this way if it was someone i didn't know? Do i wish we were still together even though i know it won't work out?' Your answers to these questions will confirm if you're really over him. Remember, you can deceive others but never lie to yourself, you won't get help that way. Besides, the fact that your relationship with him didn't work out doesn't mean theirs won't...That is one of the ironies of life!

  108. You are not over-reacting. Your friend is stupid for breaking the code, and I guess she wanted him while both of you were still dating. All you need to have for them is PITY, PITY, PITY... And my advice, Keep your friend far away from you....

  109. I feel you but if he is a womanizer, he will still cheat on her in future. Forgive her and enjoy your new bobo

  112. Hey gurl, the best revenge is silence..

    And hey wish them well and if its so happen she get hurt or come asking your advise in later days never say a word.

    FYI keep her at a distance and learn to handle your relationship affair only you not with friends..let it go and focus on your present relationship.better days ahead for people with Good heart.bye

    ReplyDelete
  113. I understand you hurt because she didn't tell you herself. Forget about girls code because honestly, the heart knows no boundaries. But look at it in a different view, what if they are might to be? Everybody deserves some sort of happiness. Sometimes we have to go through the wrong ones to finally recognize the right one when he arrives.
    People react differently to situations maybe you would have done differently if you were to be in are place but my advice is to forgive and remain friends. What i think she did wrong was keeping her best friend in the dark.
    Think about it if you were in same situation maybe you would have done same. Moreover you happy with your present boyfriend right?

    ReplyDelete
  114. Gurl your overeacting,what code? So if the gy makes her happy or he is the gy meant for her she should breakup with him just to make you happy,you are selfish giving the fact that she also wanted to bring you guys back,do you no how long she might have secretly loved him but kept it hidden so as not to be the reason your not happy? Your happy with your current boyfriend so stop being a kill joy and let her be happy with whosoever regardless of whoever the person "WAS" to you.

  132. 1st to comment. IMO I fink u still like ur ex instead u shouldn't be 2 bothered. Tins like dis happen, u shouldn't blame ur bestie unless she had something 2 do wif him b4 u guys were done. I couldn't date my friends ex cos I couldn't stand d fact dat I might be compared 2 d oda partner & d fact dat my friend got into d "holy grail" 1st made matters worse!

  134. Well it's normal to.feel.hurt by it.....she shouldn't have gone there and if she really cared about your feelings. ..she would have asked about your opinion. But since you're over and done with it...guess its time to move on. Forgiving isn't always easy..but with a conscious effort you will. Though this means you'll be a lot wiser now and know who you call "bestfriends"

    ReplyDelete
  135. The best thing to forgive her.it takes great strength to do that.and it will eat her up if u forgive her n even accept it and bear no grudges. Cos its really a betrayal from her.

    Shes d one in danger now cos she will experience d same issuea u had wit him.if she decides to eat ur leftovers....allow her.

    One more thing...choose ur friends wisely n avoid telling dem things dt go on with u n ur man.

She was never your friend.

  153. She broke the code and nothing justifies her actions. But at the same time you are happy in your relationship, so move on from this. Get past this. But when very important advice, DONOT trust her. Never!!!. But forgive her completely n move on. Tomie

    ReplyDelete
  154. I used to support the code but in this case, I will make an exception. This guy is a womanizer. Not someone that is worth much as you said in a relationship. If she wants to try out with him...so be it. You are with someone that makes you happy, then let her try her "luck". I wouldn't so the same to my friend but hey, this is the situation you find yourself in. Focus on your new man, this old man is not yours anymore. He isn't your ex-fiancee or ex-husband so I would not be too hurt. Watch what you tell her from this point on. Good luck to both of them.

    ReplyDelete
  155. so pathetic a story. well, u didnt want to go back to 2.5-year old relationship cos your ex is "a big womaniser".how couldnt you ve figured that out within the first few months of the reletionship?
    now you are terming your few-months old relationship with the new guy "a blessing to me".hope this wasnt the same statement you made in the first few months with your ex?
    my dear,u ve to look b4 u leap. will dis your new relationship b able to stand the test of time?
    as for the advice you ask for, i will advise you move on.give yourself some time.and dont label this new guy as a blessing to your life lest you will be disappointed;he might even be worst than your ex, it is only time that will tell.

  174. As far as I'm concerned, the only mistake she made was not telling u about it when it started and asking for ur opinion and/or blessing. That being said, as long as u don't still av feelings for him and she didn't start dating him when u guys were together (which techincally ended since and not in April as u would want to believe) I don't see any reason y u should hold it against her. If she knows all his flaws, as uve told her about em, and she still wants to date him, then let her go ahead. Ur friendship might be strained for a bit, but sooner or later u guys will be close again.

    ReplyDelete
  175. Why don't you leave her and let her be. Maybe that will be her husband who knows. Just let them be!

    ReplyDelete
  176. I think the mistake your friend made was not telling you. However, in all fairness, if this was really her one chance at happiness, would you begrudge her that? I think if you are happy in your relationship focus on that. But your friend does need a lesson in loyalty... even if she felt the need to take that step., she should have cleared it with you first

    YOU broke up with this guy; so why can't he move on with his life? Your homegurl never cheated with him when you guys were together, so what's your grouse?? You are happy with your new boo, so please let them be happy too. Move on, please cos they have absolutely done you no wrong. Is your current boo not someone's ex too???
