[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]He's lying to you because he likes having your attention. He knows you still have feelings for him, it strokes his ego to have you waiting in the wings for him, and he knows that if he confirms they're engaged, you might cut off the "friendship." And he's getting mad because he has no real explanation/defense, so he's putting it back on you to make you feel crazy (ever heard of gas lighting?)/ If they had been engaged and called it off, he would have told you that. And if he was never engaged to her at all, do you really think he's going to keep dating someone who goes to such lengths to lie to the rest of the world about them being engaged?

Please end this friendship. It's only hurting you, and he wouldn't string you along like this if he really cared about you and respected you.[/quote]

+1.  There are a couple relationshio issues that I see flashbacks of a Julia Roberts movie and this is one of them.  Classic "My best friend's wedding" where he is chasing after fiancé (because despite what he tells you, he left you for her and is now engaged to her he no matter how strong your friendship/she doesn't understand him the way you do/he is calling you three times a day), you are chasing after him in the sense of wondering why not you and not wanting to believe he is engaged, and as the character George so cuts thru the bs says "who's chasing you? Get it, there is your answer".  So, it doesn't matter if he is engaged to her or not or gets upset that you are saying he is engaged or not, he has not chosen you over her and your time holding on to this relationship could very well stop you from meeting the guy that will chase you, chose you, be your best friend, be the way you go home to.  No quality guy wants to chase a girl still hung up in her ex.  Take back control of your happiness and do not give this guy any more power over you and your happiness.  If you want to have a moment of wallowing, listen to that song "Congratulations" ( that song always brings me to tears) and get it out, and then dust yourself off and figure out how to cut ties.
