It’s a tale as old as time: You and your best friend want to set up a double date with your partners, so the four of you spend weeks (months?) in a group chat, volleying back and forth to pitch dates and lock in a reservation. When the day finally comes, you slog through a full work day before meeting up with your partner to grab a cab. Then en route to your reservation, a revelation: As you mindlessly open social media, your thumb stops mid-scroll when you see that your best friend has posted a picture of them kissing someone. And that someone is not the partner you’re about to meet up with.
Congratulations! Your best friend is non-monogamous, and you’re five minutes out from needing to play it cooler than the other side of the pillow.
