Ok, I'm not perfect but I do have a lot going for myself. I'm college educated, I don't smoke, not an alcoholic, not a drugee. I don't use and abuse women. I try to treat others how I would want to be treated. I always desire to have a better life. Anyways, I had a girlfriend who I was with for 2 years then it abruptly ended. It ended due to the fact that a close friend of this girlfriend's was very manipulative possesive and conning. This friend constantly bashed me towards my girlfriend and bated on her to leave me. I saw this behavior and confronted both my girlfriend and this friend of her's about the matter to try to remedy it. However, this friend finally succeeded at getting my girlfriend to cheat on me and then leave me for a friend of this friend's husband, who in my opinion is not any better than me. I know there are always two sides to every story, but I know for a fact that what happened was not justified in any way. Advice, opinions?

Just knowing you are better then both of them should be enough. Learn from it and move on. Dont doubt yourself.

That is so s.t.u.p.i.d... Unless your ex's friend knew something about you that made her try to protect her from you, she had no business getting in the middle of your relationship. And, how childish of your ex to be so easily manipulated by a friend. You shouldn't be concerned anymore, on the contrary, you should be grateful that you don't have to put up with two very immature women in your life.

Better that she is your ex GF rather than your ex WIFE, you would had to dealt with more drama from that manipulative persuasive friend. If she really "loved" you she wouldn't be persuaded into doing what she did. Next time around, who ever you end up with make sure she can decide for herself instead of having her friends be involved in her love life.

Blaming a third party seems ridiculous. Even if that friend did exactly what you say, she is not responsible for your relationship.
All any of us can do is to look at our own part of the demise of a relationship.... and work to be a better person.
Can't change other's behavior..... friends or spouses.

There are two sides to every story. Ask yourself where you were at fault in this situation. Learn from your mistakes, and move on. Stop rehashing the past. Whether it was justified or not- people do what they want to do. She obviously didn't value your relationship, or she wouldn't have done what she did- regardless of her friends input.
Move on. Don't live in the past.

There is this thing called "Free will" We all have it. Her friend didn't make your girlfriend cheat on you...plain and simple. It wasn't meant to be, had it not been then it would have been later. Learn from it and get over it.

Be happy that your idiotic girlfriend who is easily manipulated is gone. Find someone with brains.

Then if you're as wise and knowledgeable as you profess to be you'll have realized that you can do without them both very nicely in your life.
