Girl Code Violated

Dear WISY,

My close friend and I got into a huge argument because she started dating my ex.  She has been hiding it from me from a while, but a mutual friend let me know what was going on.  I confronted her about it and she tried to deny it.   I wanted to believe her, but I knew she was lying.  I've known her too long to fall for her bullshit.  So, I called my ex to see what he would say.  Long story short, he confirmed that they were dating.

I've known this girl since we were in elementary school.  We've been inseparable.  We  even planned to attend the same college.  I consider her a sister and she knows everything that I've been through with this guy.  Plus, I've only been broken up with my ex for 8 months.  I can't believe she would do this to me.  I feel like I can't trust anyone anymore, you know.  People are so f*cked up.

Anyway, I really love her and I would hate to lose her friendship.  I don't want us beefing over a guy because we're closer than that.  I don't know if I should forgive her though.  Is this a case where I should forget about the history we have and move on?

Signed,
Violated

WISY's Response:

Dear Violated,

Ask yourself if you'll be alright in the presence of your friend and your ex as a couple.  How will actions of affection affect you?  Once you figure that out, then you can determine whether you should move on from the friendship or not.

I think it's obvious that your friend doesn't share your sentiments regarding your friendship and sisterhood.  If she did, your ex would be completely off limits.  As you stated, she knew everything and you two shared a lot together.  History doesn't always mean that relationships should continue.  Time means nothing when a disloyal person is in the mix.  I'd walk away if I were you.

Walk good,
#TeamWISY
