Did you ever lose a friend because of someone else?

Friendship refers to the state of being friends. What happens when a man/woman steps into the picture and ruins your friendship? Have you ever had any experiences wherein you gave up your friendship because of him/her? Please do share... - - - - - - - - - - When my ex left me for another girl, an officemate of mine was there to see me through it. She did her best in trying to put us back together, but wasn't successful in doing so. Her being there for me during one of my lowest points in my life made her one of my closest friends in the office since then. She would be the only person in the office who I could trust enough to share my secrets with. With every year that passed by, our friendship got even stronger and stronger. As I got into another relationship, she started to become active in the dating scene as well until she found her match. I never met the guy she had been dating. For some odd reason, she didn't even want me to know his name. All I knew was my good friend was finally in love as well. The day came that she resigned from the office to look for a better job. I was one of those who cried as she bid the office goodbye promising we'd still keep in touch with each other. One day, as I was browsing through friendster, I saw that she had uploaded a picture of herself with the guy. It kind of looked like my ex, but I thought he just looked like him. Another day and another visit to her profile, another picture of them had been uploaded, this time it had a caption on it stating their names. Yup, she it was indeed who I suspected it to be. She was dating my ex. I asked a common friend of ours if she knew about it and she told me all about it... from how it started, when it started and how hard she tried to convince my friend to tell me about it. I also found out that almost everyone in the office knew about it, except me. *argh!* It just hurt me because of all people, I believe I was supposed to be the first one she should've told especially that someone from my past was who we were dealing with. When it reached my friend that I found out about her little secret, she e-mailed me and sent me a text message on my mobile saying how sorry she was. Her reason for not telling me according to her was because she valued our friendship so much and didn't want to ruin it. I never got in touch with her since then. I found out recently that they broke up as well. I have been trying to get in touch with her again after all these years, but it seems like she has deleted her yahoo accounts. A good friendship put to waste. *sigh*
