Fake relationships are one of my favorite tropes.  There was a lot of foreshadowing about the Petra/Miles situation, but it worked out better than I expected. Petra and Peter are really toxic people.  It's like they get off on making people unhappy when they're unhappy.  Miles and Daphne had a lot of family trauma. 

Sadie can go eat a bag of Richards.   What kind of friend texts someone that they're not going to pick sides?   You basically already picked sides then. You picked your boyfriend and his cheater friend's side.  She made zero effort to make sure her "best friend" was OK.
