I recently got dumped. (Boo-hoo, no-one cares, right?)

I fucked up pretty bad, and she dumped me, end of.

What I DIDN'T expect was her to go out with one of my best friends two days after she broke up with me.

I don't even know where to start, I'm even surprised I still like her, but I do.

They asked me repeatedly if I was OK with this, all I could do is smile and say yeah, I couldn't say no, I want to stop this from happening but I don't want to hurt either of them.

So now, I'm stuck here, feeling shitty about this whole thing and I have a drum exam in 2 days which has completely also screwed me over as I am probably going to fail it.

I don't know what to do, honestly, I can't think of anything, Help?

I was just saying to my friends as they were worrying about exams... You won't fail it. You'll have a lot on your mind, but you'll focus on your exams when it comes down to it.
The ex and your best mate have betrayed you, so I don't know why they think you'd be all right with it.
But I stand by the saying "You can't pick who you fall in love with."
Feelings don't just go like that, but like I've said to many people you'll find someone else. Don't go looking while the feelings are still raw.
We've all (maybe not all...) been there, shit happens to make us stronger.

EDIT: You're 14!? Dude, you've got plenty of time for girls!

It still hurts. :/
Of course it will, it was recent. I'm 18 and it still hurts when me and my boyfriend have a tiff, it never does stop hurting but your skin grows thicker over time.
It's only human. If you felt nothing, I may be a little wary of you being an alien!

You enjoy drumming right? Do some of that to take your mind off it, and you'll be ok for your exam too :3

I was gonna say your mate's an ass, but you're 14. It's still a bit douchey to hook up with your friend's ex, especially that quickly, but everyone is dating and breaking up all over the place at that age. It'll hurt for a while then you'll get over it. Learn from your mistakes and move on.

Meh, you're 14. Wait a week, their relationship will be over and you'll be with someone else.

ok, you may choose which option to listen too.

MEAN:
dude, ur only 14, get over it! it hurt, but nothing worth whining about! before u'll konw it u wont give a shit about her, so its no big deal! Get some nuts! RRARGH!

NICE:
the pain will go away, u just need some stress relief, like playing bioshock and thrash metal at the same time :D:D or just drumming a lot. time heals, maybe not comletely, but i doubt it is serious enough to leave an emotional scar

Absolutely. I play my drums for like 3 hours a day and it's just the best thing to get stress, anger, tiredness and boredom to just disappear

What you need to do right now is get a little space from her, trust me its a lot easier when you cut an ex off until you feel as though have moved on (And before anyone says I know nothing I've had a similar but much more screwed up relationship)

Your friend shouldn't have gone with her so fast, but then again she may have come after him so I wouldn't judge him until you know.

Good luck with the exam.

Least you weren't with her for almost 4 years, and you go around to her place to help her while she's sick, hang around for 8 hours, and when you go to go home, she dumps your ass when you didn't see it coming at all.

Basically, you're young, like, really young, I expect it to hurt for you, you'll live though [twitching]killthefuckers[/twitching].

Well, if such a thing happened to me, I would make a snarky remark in this regard:

A) You most likely had your eye on my friend, hence reason for dating again 2 days later.
B) Mate, she was mentally cheating on me with you.
C) Conclusion, there is a very good chance what she did with me, she will do with you.
D) Enjoy your short-lived romance guys, and don't catch anything!

As a 15 year old, I feel like I should give you some advice which got me through these school years so far.
Don't have a girlfriend.
All they will do during school is take your mind off of your studies, get you hurt, and make you lose contact with your friends. Happened to a friend of mine very recently.
That's just my two cents, you don't have to listen, but this is my advice for what to do now.
