Q: In this task you are given an anecdote. You must find out whether the anecdote is something the author has done or is considering doing. Label the instances as "HISTORICAL" when the author has already done something and label them as "HYPOTHETICAL" when the author is considering doing something in the future.
So some background information my friend ( I'll call him GB) broke up with his girlfriend (HR) and we still have the same friend group so you could see how this could be a problem.


 HR and I have always been kinda close even when they were dating we were all best friends. At the time i kinda had romantic feelings for her but they weren't strong enough for me to like do anything about it and since they were dating i was like duh no chance but i was fine with that because I was doing my own thing and exploring myself I wasn't in a state to have a relationship at that time but do keep in mind I was not the reason they broke up.

But Now things have changed 3 weeks ago I started talking HR and she told me that she and GB broke up because reasons. I didn't know that at the time everyone was kept in the dark about it.

 So I felt like wow I waited awhile to ask her out and when I did she said um yes of course. Now I told some people in our friend group and was met with immediate backlash with them saying how awful I am, that I shouldn't be doing this, and how that I'm only doing it to cause drama which is not the case.

So right now I'm at a loss my reasoning is that relationships are about trial and error and thar if it didn't work out then respect each other and move on and not take any hostility towards their new S/O but apparently not and now I'm doubting myself 

So WIBTA if I started to date her
