This real life story happened many years ago when I was studying. During that time I had a male best friend, whom I confide a lot of things in. And one of those things was about a girl that I was interested in who was also studying at that point in time. My best friend, me and the girl usually hang out together as we were in the same recreational club. However there was actually one time when this girl whom I have actually gotten successfully as a girlfriend asked me to go somewhere with her for 1 week. I rejected her because I actually promise another group of friends for an outing and the dates clashed. After I came back, this girl whom I have successfully gotten as my girlfriend then asked me out. I was quite happy then as she took the initiative to asked me out for dinner. However the situation wasn't what I expected, my girlfriend told me that she would like to break up with me and the new boyfriend is actually my best friend. My mouth was agape, jaws dropped, and kept quiet for at least 1 minute because the news was totally unexpected and extremely disappointing. I was also very upset but I told her I wish them all the best. She at that point in time didn't believe me till I prove my action with my words. I was no longer interested in going out anywhere with any group of friends if I know she will be around. And I have never tried to get her back, because I feel that what is broken cannot be fixed. With regards to looking back in time, I felt at that point in time, though the world came crashing time, I survive that test and came out happier in the process. I met the best friend who that time took my girlfriend away from me and he was very apologetic and mentioned, that I was lucky not to try to get her back because the personality of that lady isn't very good. He is now married to another lady and has a baby of his own. I met him, his wife and his baby kid when I was having a walk. But I will not contact him anymore because this bad experience from him speaks volumes.

Thanks for sharing nice.
