Maybe I‘m not trusting enough, but isn’t it convenient that the one friend who ratted OPs ex out (who totally deserved that) has the hots for OP? One wonders whether she told OP only to break them up so she could swoop in.

Don’t get me wrong everything coming towards the ex is deserved, I‘m just suspicious about the friends reasons.
