What I want to know is, what should the boundaries be? Is this kind of relationship what one should expect from unconditional love? Should that kind of unwavering support be assumed to be normal with love like that, or is it different between different people? How about between two people who arent in a relationship? What is generally considered to be "normal"?

hello Emily. I just wanted to answer those questions I hope you don't mind The bounderies in a friendship really depends on the people involved. Yes it is possible to love a best friend unconditionally but it should be from both parties. You ex loved his friend unconditionally. That is ok. He cared for her in a way anyone would for a close friend in trouble. That's normal for this kind of love. But it sounded to me (forgive me if I offend) that she was being manipulative to him. Like she was using his love for her to come in between you and him. And she may have loved him in a romantic sense. And finally it did. You did the right thing. But really he should have put you, his partner, first. Sorry that that happened to you.
