One minute theyre best friends, and the next, theyre swapping heart emojis.
But when someones hiding feelings like a ghost at a Halloween costumeparty, things get scary really fast.
Mike has this bestie, Vivian, who just happens to share his borderline obsession with Halloween.
Harmless enough, no?
Eh…not so fast.
This years VIP pick was Vivian, of course.
When she brought it up, youd think hed offer to switch things up.
Mike pulled the classic I wont change my traditions with friends for a relationship.
Oh, no you didnt, Mike!
But what about the OP, you ask?
Well, she was the accidental supporting role in his love story.
So why didnt he come clean sooner?
Thats the million-dollar question.
She even took a week off uni to recover from the breakup.
To find out more about the situation,Bored Pandareached out to the poster for more details.
Her ex did call and texted her 15 times to apologize after she broke up with him.
I definitely didnt suspect him and dismissed his behavior as a friendship with Viv, the poster explained.
She told us that Yes, they had their own things.
Places, movies, songs you name it.
No one else was allowed to share them.
I again chalked it up as nothing suspicious.
Well, some say its worse than physical cheating.
And honestly, I think theyre onto something.
So, does this mean that men and women cant be just friends?
Well, thats an age-old debate.
And theres no clear answer here.
Its pretty much maybe, maybe not.
I did some digging, and there have beenstudiesconducted on situations like our Redditors.
But if everyone approached it like men, lets just say it would be a totally different story.
