Met an amazing woman on my old Reddit account and had an intense year long emotional connection. We ended things amicably. She is now getting married to my closest friend and I’m invited. What do I do?

Ask Thirties

Hey everyone,

I’m stuck in a complicated situation and need some advice.

About a year ago, I connected with an amazing woman on my old Reddit account. What started as casual chatting turned into a very intense, year-long emotional connection and sort of a long distance relationship. We had a really strong connection, but things got complicated, she went through a layoff and her mental health wasn't great and she wasn't comfortable with long-distance (it was too much for her) so we ended it mutually and amicably and moved on. She thanked me for understanding her situation.

Fast forward to now: She is getting married to one of my closest friends through arranged marriage and I just got the invitation.

I literally know everything about her, right down to the most minute intimate details and she knows everything about me.

No one else knows about what happened between me and her.
