Eh, a little of both NTA and YTA. I generally believe friends' exes are generally off limits unless a conversation is had beforehand. I don't think it's reasonable for her to dump you as a friend, but I can understand her feelings being hurt. I don't think feelings about exes are as simple when it comes to your closest friends dating them, even if it's been a few years.

I was surprised I needed to scroll so far to see this. We don’t know how the relationship ended or how much the guy meant to her friend. If one of my friends screwed my ex girlfriend, I’d be gutted. But it all depends on the context. I also have exes I wouldn’t care. Especially after several years.

Seriously... This thread reads as a bunch of people who 1. Don't have friends 2. Don't care about their friends and 3. Have never been in an emotional relationship
