Thank you for the insight, this is similar to what I and my friends came with.

Now I just don’t know what to do about it, if anything. I’m severely pained by losing both a friend and my lover whom I intended to spend the life with. The betrayals went really deep.

Yet I still worry about her, and she herself voiced that he does come off as possessive at times when they started talking. What could I even do in such a situation? Should I leave them alone and hope it ends sooner than later? Should I try to remain close to her as a counter force?

When it comes to him, and despite the vile treatment he subjected me to in the end, I can’t stop thinking that things could have gone a different way. The fact that he chose to invalidate all our years together and blame all he ever did on me, was a very painful blow. Despite everything, I still cherish the memories we created together.
