I traveled to Greece with my best friend. While there, I discovered that my boyfriend led a double life. I stopped returning his calls and blocked him from my life. I couldn’t have done it without my friend’s help. I met a handsome guy there due to my best friend, who introduced us and began our holiday romance. Imagine my surprise when, years later, I discovered that my best buddy had been planning everything. This is how I found the truth…
Years after that trip, I ran across my ex. I was surprised when he stated, “I am grateful to your friend for breaking our relationship. After we broke up, I finally met the love of my life.” I froze and sought an explanation. Instead of responding, he advised me to ask my best buddy. When I challenged her, she revealed that the vacation was well planned. She found that my partner was a cheater and insisted that he confess to me and quit the relationship.
When he declined, she decided to handle the situation herself. She organized my vacation to Greece to help me discover the truth about his double life.
To lessen the shock, she had arranged for me to meet the Greek guy, hoping that it would help me move on more quickly. And it worked: I was distracted, cheerful, and able to let go of my ex much faster than I had anticipated.
Looking back, I could not believe my ex lacked the fortitude to tell me the truth. But what actually shocked me was how far my dearest buddy went to keep me safe from suffering. Her acts made me appreciate her commitment and love even more, and I’ll be forever grateful to her.
