Well, technically speaking I haven't been in school since July, but I see what you mean, if it had been one of my other friends then I would have been more patient and sympathetic. There were a few other factors involved, but that's by the by.
I think, even for situations other than mine, I do have a point. If the new partner has given enough time and has tried to talk to the old partner, I think the old partner is wrong to say that they would never accept them being together. I guess it depends on the circumstances of how the relationship ended too, but then I can't imagine the new partner would be interested in someone who has hurt their friend like that. Friendship is a two way thing, if the old partner is going to let their friend be unhappy because they're incapable of moving on then they're a shitty friend. I'm not saying that they should not care, or that their ex should be able to jump straight into bed with his friend, but their ex is going to date someone at some point, wouldn't they rather it was someone they knew and trusted rather than some stranger?
