Yet, he continued to fuck her, she would do his homework for him and clean his apartment (soooooo weird), and he would still bring other girls home from the bars and tell her about it. Needless to say, she was totally obsessed with this guy (even going so far as to move directly across the street from his apartment building) and he was using her. Of course, she would continue to get upset, ranting to me about how the other girls were not as cute as her and why he didn't want to be her boyfriend. I advised her MANY times to stop her obsession and move on with her life.
Fast forward to now. My female friend has been dating a new guy from work for 9 months. They just got engaged a few weeks ago.
However, I go on LinkedIn and find that she just quit her job and has created a new startup company with the ex she was obsessed with. She insists that they are only friends, but they are working out of his apartment! She's with him all the time and, of course, is probably doing 98% of the work for this company while the ex uses her. My guess is that she's probably fucking this guy again.
And, of course, the fiancé knows nothing about their history. He knows nothing about her obsession. The ex has been sold as her "friend from grad school" and no one has the balls to tell this guy the truth.
If you were in the fiancés shoes, would you want someone to tell you? I don't know the guy at all, but he's going to get burned badly. I know with 100% certainty that my friend isn't over this guy. She just really wants to be "married."
Just out of curiosity, do you have a life of your own?

Why would you want to get sucked back into all this drama with "toxic" people when you've already cut ties because you had enough? Just let it go and don't give it another thought.

Anonymous wrote:All other PPs are right, but guess what: you're obsessed with "toxic friend," OP. It's all over your post. Walk away from her and stay away. Focus on your own life. Yeah, she's crazy, but from what I read, so are you.
