A year later, the woman’s sister Lily revealed that she was secretly dating Mike and the couple were now engaged.
She added that her parents had known about the relationship for a few months but had not said anything about it “to protect her.”
“I had a headache and I felt like I was going to faint,” the woman said.
Lily had promised that the relationship had not started before her sister and Mike broke up, and tried to justify the relationship by claiming that they were meant for each other.
The woman said, “I felt betrayed on so many levels.
“I told them I wanted nothing to do with their wedding and stormed out.”

The post was flooded with thousands of responses from users on social media, many of whom expressed their disbelief at the situation.
Someone said, “Oh my god, that’s crazy that she’s marrying your ex who cheated on you.
“The fact that they were secretly dating makes me think she was the other woman. I don’t blame you for not going.
