    Hey all,
    K, just need advice bout couple things. its kinda a series of events so its easier to say it like that.
    Last year i broke up with my gfriend of 4 years!
    Few months later i got a promotion in job, so i had to move away from my family because of the hours it entails!
    Moved in with 1 of my best friends!
    She starts dating with my other best friend!
    THey break up and put me in the middle, so i tries to stay neutral!
    After the break up finally settles down and i have two best friends back but few months later they go behind my back to see eachother again, when i goes to work!
    So , presently i'm on my own in the apartment (friends went away together), with a job i do like but its like 65 hrs a week so i dnt get a chance to meet any1. so, I dunno how im gonna start a friendship or relationship ?

    Any advice wud be appreciative

    Well as for your two friends dating, breaking up, then seeing each other again? that shouldnt bother you really. Its them. Their lives.

    As for them keeping it a secret? thats usually the case when it was a some what emotional filled breakup. People tend to keep that to themselves when they get back together. As you say you were put in the middle. Its mainly to stop people from going "what are you doing?" ie you in this case.


    But the real issue is you having no-one and I say breaking up with your girlfriend of 4 years last year doesnt help things.
    All I can say is to re-evaluate your job. You're working 65 hours a week. Thats more than a job, thats taking over your life - "you work to live, not live to work" (there is a reason why that caught on op)

    Thing is, I love my job cos there is great prospects for the future. I know its tough going with all the hours, but sur, try to keep telling myself that it'll be worth it. Especially in this economic climate. Its tough tho when there aint no release really. No one i can trust to talk to (anymore) .

    Agree with Lighterguy that the issue with your 2 best friends is not really your issue and nothing for you to worry about.

    You say you love your job. To be honest, are you really in the right frame of mind to meet someone at the mo? How would you manage a 65hr week, which you don't want to give up, with a relationship? It sounds as if you don't have the time and that your career is your main focus at the moment.
