[QUOTE="Tanager, post: 82985, member: 1986"] Yup, I've been there. From both sides. And it bites anyway you look at it. I'd advise you to keep quiet it really isn't worth the grief to everyone involved. Put the shoe on the other foot, if Morgan did this to you, how would you feel? What kind of a person would you think him to be afterwards? Do [b]you[/b] want to be that person? Part and parsel of the course of long term relationships. Particularly at around the one/1.5 year mark, when the mystique of someone new has worn off and parts of the relationship has become a somewhat routine. It's never "happily ever after", but that doesn't mean it won't last. Be happy that Morgan found somebody special. Be happy for Ann that she found somebody special (after all, he's your best friend, so you must think he's a good guy). I know it seems like that now, but you can, and will get over it. It takes time and hurts like a b***h in the meantime. But it does get better. [quore]I can get Ann and possibly lose Morgan...[/quote] There is a third possibility you haven't brought up. You could lose them [b]both[/b], and other friends who get caught in crossfire. Ultimately, my advice, for what it's worth, would be to give yourself a little space. Don't stop hanging with them, but start something new in your own life. Meet some new people. Easier said than done, I know. David [/QUOTE]
