If you were put in a situation like this, how would you handle it?
Your live-in boyfriend's best friend just called off his engagement and is crushed. In an attempt to lift his friend's spirits, your boyfriend has been inviting him over a lot in addition to them hitting the town together.
I've always been a fan of the what if game which is why I love our new feature,
Handle This. Of course no one knows how they'd really react in any of these wild scenarios unless it actually happened to them, but it's always fun to imagine yourself there.
Below are my ten favorite posts of the year so be sure to answer them if you haven't already.
If you were put in a situation like this, how would you handle it?
You and your best friend made New Year's Eve plans months ago, which was a huge relief to you since there's always so much hype around that night. You each bought tickets to an all-inclusive party, and since most of your friends are coupled up, she's essentially your date.

You finally met a guy that you were excited to go out with. A date was set and you were looking forward to it all week.
You've been with your boyfriend for six months and he's finally ready to introduce you to his family, who live across the country.

You and a close friend have made a trip back to your college town to visit a mutual friend for the weekend. Since the friend you're visiting is married with kids, you both opted to stay in a hotel instead of at her house, figuring if you shared a room, it wouldn’t be too expensive.
One night you all head out for drinks and end up running into an old male friend who used to go to college with all of you.
You have a large group of girl friends from college that you still stay in touch with. You've all been talking about getting together for a reunion night, but after months of talk, no one's taken on the responsibility, so you decide to take it upon yourself. You all agree that instead of a big group dinner out, it would be more fun to make it a girls' night in.
Although your friends warned you about a friends-with-benefits situation, you did so anyways, and so far things have been going well. The sex is satisfying and you are both very respectful of the other, or so it seems.
One night when you have plans to meet up with your special friend for a lustful night, you decide to go grab dinner and drinks with girlfriends first.
