Should I let it go?
In December of 2000, I met S. He and I dated for the year of 2001 and then, after breaking up, became best friends and stayed that way for 7 + years (to present).
In 2005, S. met a lady named T. They became friends, and it became obvious that S. was infatuated with T., even though she was married and had a family. S. acted as though T. had a lot to offer him and spent a lot of time with her (he was working for her during this time), to the point that he would blow off jobs she had scheduled and blow me off as well.
After several instances of him "forgetting" about me, blowing me off, or lying to me and then denying it...T. showed her true colors. She kept two of his paychecks then dropped him like a bad habit and stopped talking to him. T. and I had it out. I told her what I thought of her. S. and I went through some hard times during that 6 month period, however, I stuck by him and he realized this during this time.
Then S.'s family (in Missouri and Kansas) contacted S's former place of employment (T.'s house) and inquired about him. T. lied about him and said she knew what was going on with him because she was still in touch with him (which was a lie, since she'd not been in touch for over 3 months). S's family drove out to AZ from their home and asked that S. come back home. S. said he had to go, he had no choice and asked that I keep some of his stuff in my storage and care for our ferrets. S. said he wanted nothing to do with T. again. That was over six months ago.
Now, S. has forgiven T. and is talking to her again. This means that he has no time to talk to me, rarely responds to emails or answers the phone if I call and doesn't call back if I leave a message.
I'm angry and hurt, yet again, that my best friend has forgotten who his REAL best friend is. Recently, he even mentioned on her Myspace profile that T. is his best friend...even though she's screwed him over 3 times in the last 2 years, and I've been loyal to him for 7 years, and have never turned my back on him.
Am I wrong for being angry? Should I just let him go, even though it's over 7 years of friendship invested? Is there anyway I can fix this?
