Two-Timing with the Bestie	comment	Friendships and relationships are similar as they both need trust and honesty to work. Both members of the party need to display these qualities to keep the relationship healthy. Unfortunately, not all relationships follow through with this. Sometimes, the person you're supposed to be with goes behind your back and hooks up with someone else. While this is already bad enough, it only gets worse when they are going out with one of your close friends. Situations like this can really break the trust and bond between not only the romantic partners, but the two friends as well. While the victim of this will reasonably be angry at both of them, more of their anger goes towards the friend instead of the romantic partner. This is usually due to how friends are supposed to be the ones that they can lean on for support, which makes the betrayal hurt more. In some stories of fiction, this would allow for a Love Triangle to occur in the fandom. There would be fans that would support the former love interest, due to how they were hurt by this betrayal. Other fans would root for the new couple as they felt the former relationship was unhealthy and abusive. Then, there would be the fans that would Take a Third Option, and say that all of them were at fault for what has happened and wouldn't take any sides at all. A situation like this can lead to tropes such as Et Tu, Brute? or We Used to Be Friends, as they both involve a friendship being broken due to betrayal from their friend hooking up with their partner behind their back. Some cases could also apply for Sympathetic Adulterer, depending on how the former relationship was and if the cheated victim was a good person to their ex when they were dating. This is one possible reason someone would Blame the Paramour; friendship betrayals hurt just as much as romantic ones. Compare A Family Affair, which involves a similarly personal betrayal, as well as the cheater "hunting close to home". See also Bros Before Hoes, where characters put their friends over their romantic interests and My Sister Is Off-Limits, where someone forbids their friends from dating their siblings. No Real Life Examples, Please!

When Brody returns, Jessica and Mike end the relationship so that the former can be with her husband. Unfortunately, things get really complicated due to Brody's role as a sleeper agent for al-Qaeda, and then his mission for the CIA affects his marriage.

White leaves no doubt that Sir Lancelot was a good friend and loyal knight of King Arthur, nor that Lancelot and Queen Guinevere were engaging in adultery. The conflict when Arthur must judge them both after they've been caught in the act is a dramatic high point.

They both immediately regretted it, with Patrick only phoning Joni prior to the hike to reaffirm it was a huge mistake and that he wanted to fix his marriage, which Joni agreed with.

The problem is that she's dating Harry at the time and (unbeknownst to her) Spider-Man is Peter Parker, his best friend. On the other hand, Harry is shown to be increasingly insensitive and controlling, so it's easy to sympathize with her. Harry later attempts to convince Peter that it's happened in reverse in Spider-Man 3, by coercing Mary Jane into telling him Peter that she's found someone else, and then smugly informing Peter that he's the 'someone else'. By this point, of course, Harry doesn't exactly see Peter as a best friend - but Peter doesn't know that yet.

However, the trio went to the movie theater, and when Allie left, that was Tess's chance to get to know Bobby more. They shared a kiss. Allie caught them and ignored Tess's apology. But eventually, Allie accepts that she and Bobby have a lot less in common than he and Tess do, and they hug it out.

She thought that her boyfriend was messing around with her best friend Maki behind her back, but he was actually just asking her for help in picking out an anniversary present. Double Subverted when it turns out that Maki was actually trying to break them up so she could have him for himself (though she admits to Shirogane and Ishigami that she'd never been able to fully go through with it because she cares too much for Kashiwagi as a friend to break her heart like that). Tsubame developed Commitment Issues after her boyfriend cheated on her. It's implied that the other girl in the equation was her best friend, but Onodera doesn't give enough detail when explaining the situation to Miko to make it clear one way or another.

He and Rick's wife Lori start sleeping together after Shane tells her that her husband died. Rick is still very much alive and Lori is quick to take him back when they're reunited; she's also not happy with Shane for lying about his certainty over Rick's fate. Things are further complicated when Lori finds out she's pregnant and isn't certain which one is the father. A jealous Shane becomes increasingly antagonistic towards Rick and obsessive over Lori, even trying to drunkenly rape her. This culminates in Shane trying to kill Rick, who is forced to kill him in self-defense. Rick later acknowledges he knows that Lori's baby was fathered by Shane, but he still raises her as if she were his own.

Then they're forced to have sex with each other to entertain a visitor, unbeknownst to Oenomaus. Afterwards, they find themselves developing an attraction to each other. They initially try to bury their feelings and avoid each other as neither of them want to betray Oenomaus (whom they also believe would kill them if he found out), but when Melitta learns Gannicus is to be sent away from the ludus, she visits him so they can have consensual sex. Unfortunately, this inadvertently leads to Melitta's death. Oenomaus remains oblivious as to what occurred between his wife and best friend until several years later in Vengeance, when Ashur reveals the truth to break him. This causes a rift between Oenomaus and Gannicus until the end of the season, where they finally reconcile.

However, the '80s had Johnny Storm aka Human Torch and Alicia grow closer, with them marrying in the FF's 300th issue. Johnny and Alicia getting together was naturally the source of some tension between Ben and Johnny, and proved so unpopular with the fanbase that roughly 50 issues later, it was revealed the "Alicia" Johnny had married was the Skrull spy Lyja while the real Alicia was rescued and picked up her romance with Ben.

She denies knowing anything, but Obi-Wan can sense she's lying and stows away on her personal starship as she goes to Mustafar, where Anakin is waiting. When she confronts Anakin about the attack and the murders, Obi-Wan reveals himself. An enraged and unstable Anakin accuses Padme (his secret wife) and Obi-Wan (his best friend and mentor) of betraying him; the subtext implies he's accusing of them of infidelity too. Anakin is thoroughly mistaken, but he Force Chokes Padme and engages Obi-Wan in a duel. By the end, Obi-Wan has fled into hiding, Padme dies after giving birth, and Anakin, grievously burned, is sealed into an armoured suit as Darth Vader.
