Desperately need ya'lls advice!

[Bowyn Aerrow]

So, a few questions:
1. Should I keep being friends with Richard? I know the decision is up to me, but input is greatly appreciated.
2. What am I going through? I don't think its depression because I don't feel depressed. I don't feel anything. I don't even have the energy to make food, much less be angry.
3. How can I feel again? Whenever I try to muster up emotion all I get is anger and hate for Richard and his new boyfriend.

1. No. First he cock-blocked you, then he started dating this guy even though he knew you were interested in the fellow. Real friends don't play these games.

2. You are going through the 5 stages of grief - trust me this applies to much more than just a death. right now you are in denial mixed with depression. Sadly you are in denial not only that your 'best friend' is a S.O.B. - you are also in denial you are in depression. This is somewhat dangerous because when it does hit home your anger stage may be a bit 'dramatic' as you compensate for the lack of anger earlier on (as you should have some anger here).

3. Time wounds all heels. Wait, reverse that - Time heals all wounds.

Actually in this case both apply.

I strongly suggest you drop Richard. Preferably off a fishing boat with concrete shoes to learn him an important life lesson. However since murder is illegal everywhere you should settle by dumping him as a friend.

I doubt the other guy knew what was going on, it is not his fault. So do not take it out on him.

Don't bother telling him either, Richard will say anything to have this guy - he lied through his teeth to you, he will lie to his partner saying all manner of bad things about you.

Bet bet is to turn your back and walk away - as far away as possible.

Time will get Richard. Karma exists and it will turn around and bite him in the ass... eventually.
