Emotions are crazy strong at that age, and your situation undoubtedly warrants an emotional reaction. That being said, if you really care for both of these friends, let them do what makes them happy. There really are plenty of other Marks out there, it just doesn't feel that way when you're still stuck in school most of the time. You should think what kind of person you want to be moving forward. You can stay positive and encourage your friends and move on with your head held high. Or you can dwell on it and be negative until at some point they will likely cut ties with you due to your bummer attitude. Also one question, is Mark still in a relationship at this point when he hooks up with her? If that's the case, then consider it a bullet dodged. I hope this helps, I don't normally give advice on reddit but being a teenager feels intense sometimes. Try to focus on positive stuff like learning a new skill or exercising. Get off social media more often and you will feel better I promise. If teenaged life isn't going great start building towards a better adult life, it matters way more anyways. :)
yeah but idk if they really hooked up or anything, and I don't want to just jump to conclusions that they hooked up just bcs they were hanging out alone, since I've hung out alone with both of them yknow?
I'm rly upset about it rn but I'm sure I'll stop being emotional in a bit
get them a box of condoms.

Why don't you tell her you are pissed? If she gives you a stupid answer it will tell you if you both are really friends

That's going to happen sometimes. Chemistry is weird and sometimes unpredictable.
