Dating his friends ex

Post Reply New Topic

Recently this guy I know split up with his ex and now one of the guys friends has started dating his former girlfriend. Because of this he really wants to beat up his friend (well there not friends anymore)

Do you think it's understandable how he feels?

Maybe he sees it as some kind of betrayal
So that might be why he's angry

Idk it's probably more complicated than that

Yeah, what bb said about betrayal.

Also, he is probably feeling jealousy and maybe some insecurity regarding why his ex-girlfriend wants the new guy and not him.

I understand how he feels—breakups can be incredibly painful, and it probably feels like a betrayal seeing someone he once called a friend now dating his ex. It’s a tough situation, and it’s normal to feel hurt, angry, or even confused.

That said, hearts can be broken and they do need time to heal. But violence is never the answer. Acting on those emotions can cause even more damage, not just to others, but to himself as well.

And it’s also important to remember: she is her own person, with the right to choose who she wants to be with. That choice may hurt, but it doesn’t make it wrong. Moving forward with dignity and focusing on healing is the best thing he can do right now.
