AITA for feeling so much anger towards my ex after what he did?

    Backup of the post’s body: Throw away account because I’m not sure if they use reddit.

    My ex (let’s call him Jason) broke up with me very suddenly just before Valentines Day this year. He said he was “struggling with his mental health” and “needed to be alone.” At this time we were living together for nearly 3 years talking about marriage and buying a house together. We travelled to my home country twice to meet my family so it was very serious between us, not just talks.

    One day Jason came home from work and he broke up with me out of the blue, “threw” me out his house knowing I had nowhere else to go as all my family live in another country and we are in the UK.

    He told me he wasn’t capable of being in a relationship and needed space to figure himself out. I was heartbroken but tried to respect it. I was also devastated because I had nowhere to go. I ended up couch surfing and eventually moving in with a relative, basically homeless for a while, with no one around because my family is not in the UK.

    Two days before all of this, his female best friend (let’s call her Jennifer) broke off her 10 years long relationship, to which they had a flat and were engaged for nearly 2 years.

    A few days after I moved out, he told me that Jennifer was staying over because of her ending her relationship and having nowhere else to go, which bothered me since he told me he needed space and to be alone, but he let Jennifer live with him just a couple of days after he kicked ME out.

    Jennifer and Jason would occasionally meet up to catch up about each other’s lives as they were no longer working together. The last time they hang out was a couple of days before Jennifer decided to break up with her fiance and told Jason this who then told me (this was a couple of days before HE then broke up with me).

    Just needed to mention that me and Jason got together because Jennifer decided to play cupid; so Jennifer and I were close friends as we all used to work at the same firm.

    Fast forward to now, I just found out they are dating, after he messaged me confirming it after denying from the day we broke broke up. The same girl who used to be my best friend.

    They betrayed me in the worst way. She used to come over, hang out with us, talk about her wedding plans with me. And now she’s with my ex, the one who broke my heart and kicked me out under the excuse of needing to “be alone.”

    It’s not even just the cheating (which I fully believe it was, even if they deny it), it’s the cruelty. They left me to suffer and acted like they were the victims. She never messaged to see how I was doing or if I needed anywhere to stay or just a shoulder to cry on, and I couldn’t understand why until now. Now it all makes sense.

    I don’t want them back. I just want to say: f**k both of you. You deserve each other. And I hope your little love story was worth all the pain you caused me.

    So Reddit, AITA for wanting Karma to serve justice after months of lies and for not accepting their timeline and thinking this was planned all along?!

    I don’t have feelings for Jason anymore, but they way things happened, was timed too perfectly and I just feel betrayed as I heard rumours but decide to not believe at the time because I trusted them.
