Here is what’s been bothering me recently. I’ve learnt that H is going to the vacation home during the Thanksgiving week. Obviously he wants to join our mutual friends there for dinner and stuff. Previously I didn’t have a problem with that. And now I do.

My mutual friends were taking care of H while he was there, and remained good friends to him. Invited him for dinners, helped him with the bills, etc. I was happy that they were taking care of him.

Something has changed recently. I just don’t like the thought that they are still close. It bothers me that they are going to invite him for dinner like a family member. I don’t know what it is, jealousy, anger, IDK. It occurred to me that our mutual friends are in an essence the OW. H left his family and they gladly accommodated him in theirs. Anybody has any thought on this? I feel like I’ve been cheated by my friends. Especially the female one. I want her to take my side. I don’t want her to be so accommodating and welcoming to H. Am I going backwards? Why am I feeling this way? I want to think that I’m finally starting to let the rope go, which is a good thing. But, at the same time I feel torn. I have no idea how I will be handling this with my friends. Do I also let them go?
