Were you friends or just acquaintances?

If I found out one of my friends was dating my ex immediately after, I'd pretty angry. However, if it I found it it was simply an acquaintance(and many people call these people "friends" in casual conversation which is why I ask), then I wouldn't blame him at all (and this did happen to me cause obv all the crazy soulcrushing stuff in the world happens to me).

socalsucka it's a pretty annoying situation but standard. she probably just realized that moving away meant a relationship wouldnt work and it would just make things more painful the longer the inevitable was postponed. It hurts shes dating so soon and not waiting before she moves which is one of those weird cases where girls don't seem to understand the mixed messages saying one thing and doing another sends to the last guy they were with. Don't feel bad, it happens to the best of us.

Yes.

She either left you to bang him or they were banging even before she broke up with you

Sorry

SL MSpaint thread in the future.

this **** doesn't even make sense. it's pissing me off trying to figure out what the hell it is. why does the teacher have no goddamn arms? what's all that scribble on the chalkboard? is it important to the mspaint?

lol he is not your friend, if he knew how you felt about her, he should atleast tell you he might have feelings for her, not just hooking up with her, You need to get rid of friends like this, he is a douche bag. And yes i would be soul crushed, it seems like you really liked her.

Why do all of your folks wanna cockblock your friends? What if Friend and that dirty cheating whore end up getting married and having 1000 babies?

Calling dibs on women is only acceptable in the most nub social circles, along with informing people of who you're actively sexing.

Thremp is right. There is no dibs on girls.

I don't think that's true, I think that in this case the sentiment you're reading from those who replied to the guy in question are giving a reasonably accurate representation of the majority of social circles, whether you feel it should be that way or not. Granted, I can't quantify this, but having been friends with so many different types of people, I get the feeling that most agree with the type of sentiment talked about above.

For the record, if this is just a girl that nobody amongst a circle of friends has hooked up with or whatever, I totally agree that there is no dibs. Two or more friends like a girl? Fine, everyone go after her, let the best man win.

So, again, not talking about situations like that. Dibs in a situation like that would be dumb. I'm just talking about when a friend has been in actual exclusive relationship with a girl and/or has clearly formed a deep emotional attachment with her.

Doing something that you know is very probable to hurt your friend, whether their hurt is rational or not, is always questionable, both from a standpoint of being a good friend and from a standpoint of maximizing your own utility.

And, depending on the social circle, if it's going to hurt your rep not only with this friend but with a decent chunk of your other friends, then...it'd better be worth it. To me, this would mean that you'd better think that the situation had good long-term relationship potential rather than just being a couple of hook-ups and done. I realize that your likely stance is that if something like this would hurt your rep in the eyes of a significant number of people in your social circle, that you should just get a new social circle...but I stand by my previous assertion that you really are dealing with a majority of the population who think this way.

Cannot even fathom why so many people aren't just scrolling right past those.

While I agree that a lot of people feel that way it is irrational. You broke up. She is going to date other people. What difference does it make who it is?
