Imagine being asked to be the best (wo)man at your best friend’s wedding, only to have the bride-to-be accuse you of trying to break up their relationship. This is the predicament our friend, let’s call her ‘Sasha’, found herself in. Sasha, who hails from Russia, has been best friends with ‘Jay’ since childhood. They even dated briefly when she was 18 before she realized she was a lesbian. When Jay proposed to his girlfriend, ‘El’, Sasha was naturally his first choice for best (wo)man. But when El suddenly demanded Sasha step down, accusing her of being secretly in love with Jay, things took a dramatic turn. Let’s dive into this rollercoaster of a story.
