Hello to All! I am a 28 year old female and I need some advice from the "experienced" women out there willing to provide me with words of wisdom.I must say I have several of situations that has occurred over the last two years that will blow your mind completely out of its frame. I would like to begin with this : I was dating this guy (lets call him X) for about 3-4 years and he decided that he could longer carry on the relationship, after I indicated to him that I wanted more..(engagement). He then relocated out of the country, literally, to pursue his career endeavors. I was heartbroken for over 2 years with the sound of his voice saying move on with your life.
One day I met this wonderful guy (lets call him Y) through a mutual friend who introduced us. After about 6 months into seeing each other we were discussing our childhood memories and he proceeds to show me pictures of his friends from home. He pulls out a picture of his best friend he grew up with and it was the guy (X) who relocated out of the country!!! Bizarre!! What do I do? Would it be up to the gentleman (guy Y) that I am seeing now to tell him (guy X) that he is now seeing me? What is the odds of this happening to anyone? Apparently guy X never mentioned me to any of his close friends. SO WHAT DO I DO? Do you think that I will cost a friendship to be severed?

If you were all that important to the first guy (X), and the second guy were all that important to him, he would have mentioned you.
empressjy,
I would call it a love coincidence rather than a triangle. I find it more amazing that you dated guy X for about 3-4 years and never ended up meeting his best friend, guy Y. I don’t understand why a man, (be him X,Y or any letter of the alphabet) would keep his G/f a secret from his close friends. I also find it odd that the mutual friend didn’t make the connection either. If guy X was a best friend from years ago then like shy says, I don’t think the bond is strong for it to be a concern now.
