Caught in the Crossfire
So two of my friends just broke up and now I feel stuck in the middle. He's been my friend for almost three years and I just recently became her friend. So a couple days ago he calls me sounding really depressed so I ask what's wrong and he asks to meet up. Since I'm going downtown anyway I agree and he tells me that they have broken up, I guess I kinda saw it coming but it's still pretty bad when it actually does. Anyway we end up hanging out because he's majorly upset and I am still his friend even if we haven't talked in a long time. Next day, he calls me again sounding really really bummed, apparently something happened with the girl and he's pretty enraged about it. He really doesn't have anyone to talk to at that moment so I invite him over. Basically the day consists of him ranting and then watching TV. I figure it's better for him to get all his anger out before they talk because I know if they talk when they're both still angry they might say something they'll regret. Later on he calls me and tells me that they talked and still angry said things they shouldn't have. I'm glad that we can have our friendship back but at the same time I feel horrible because she is still one of my friends and I can only imagine how she is feeling right now. I mean, despite what I've over and over again said she thinks that I'll end up going out with him. But both me and him know that will never happen and have actually discussed it. I just wish I could make her see that, especially if it would help her to calm down a little. I think that they should talk it out, just not right now since they are both still angry. I have no idea what to do, both of them are special to me and I want to comfort them both but I feel like I have to choose. And so I'm stuck. I really hope that she won't hate me forever...

I don't expect an acceptance of apology. I expect the opposite. Your letter really hurt me, and I know that was it's aim. Goodnight.
