Recently my friend broke up. It was a 7 year old relationship.I was very upset because of that.But immediately after the break up,her boyfriend got a new girlfriend,who was his so called "children best friend".I have heard things like this before also.Why do always fall for their best friends after their breakup? is it true that in a boy-girl friendship somewhere there is more than mere friendship, often unrealized; which tends to surface after a break up?

as for me, i do have 6 BOYFRIENDS (not really boyfriends but bestfriends that im super comfortable with them) and so far after their break ups, they never fall for me. lol. that would be stupid, i think because for us, we're like brothers and sisters.
but i understand others why they fall for they bestfriends. OF COURSE!
their bestfriend is the one who's always there when they were brokenhearted
and the one who cheers them up.
In their bestfriends, they've found new place (or definitely old place)
where they belong. IT'S THE STATUS DEVELOPMENT.
:)
but for my case, it's a different story because 1 of my bestfriends is my ex-boyfriend.
and we've been bestfriends AFTER our break-up. :

Plus there's always a sense of belonging-ness. Always associated to best friends. Because they both think that there's no one in this world who understands, but their bestfriend. There's no one who loves them more for who they really are, but those person who actually grew up with them, since those people are witness/es to what they've gone through.
