Lookback: A few days

I went on a date with my best friend's sister-in-law.

I went on a few dates with my best friend's sister-in-law, and even though I was transparent, my friend was very hurt. I ended things with her, but I broke my friend's trust and he now wants nothing to do with me.

What I wish I knew
"I wish I had understood how much my actions would hurt my friend, despite him initially saying it was okay."
If I could tell you one thing
"If a situation feels weird, it probably isn't the right thing to do."
