Yes, the way you impetuously dumped your ex before me is a red flag. We had a solid year or so and were together through college graduations and family losses. My gut began telling me your roommate’s motives, but I’m a girl’s girl so I gave her the benefit of the doubt. I ignored that your name rhymes with cheater.
I hated losing friendships because of our breakup. At least I enjoyed a rebound fling with the other woman’s (hot) ex who was also betrayed. We bonded over our mutual baggage and “The Nightman Cometh.”
You’re divorced now and balding in the most unflattering way.
