    It always feels rotten to me when someone jumps to a new partner so quick after breaking up with the last one (not a universal view but people really are different). Sorry this happened, dude. But you'd have to be pretty rotten inside to do that to someone, so to hell with them.

      it's funny to me now, and even at the time (years ago) i was more confused than hurt but i remember i split with a partner after about 6 months together and like 48 hours later all her social media stuff was her all posed up lovey-dovey with some new guy who looked a lot like me. not a twin, but even i was like, "uh... does that guy look like me to you?" and my friend was like, "lol, that's why i showed you."

      i had gotten off social media earlier that year, so i was kinda out of the loop. both of us were like late 30s too, if that matters.

      i try not to have judgement for how people find each other, because everything is a mess, but when people go from one thing to something else really quickly, my gut reaction is to make the same face as when someone over 12 puts a lot of ketchup on scrambled eggs.
