Is it normal that i'm sadder over the loss of a friend over a girlfriend?

This may be a little angsty so bare with me.

A while back, one of my best friends set me up with a good friend of hers. We ended up dating for a bit until things went bad and we broke up. The break up wasn't anything horrible, as it was just a mutual break up with no arguments or anything. The worst part was when my friend said that she was going to stay friends with my now ex girlfriend but didn't want to be friends with me which hurts. Her reason behind that is she doesn't want to be caught in the middle. In fact losing one of the best friends I've ever had hurts way more than losing a girlfriend.

Has anyone had this problem?

    Ya its normal. You were friends with the friend for a long time, and it seems like you and the girlfriend didn't really mesh well.

      But why would my friend side with my ex and refuse to be friends with me any more? It confuses and hurts me.

        That part sucks a lot. My fiance left me last night and i'm actually finding that some of the friends that I knew before her are siding with her and ditching me. I can't explain it, and I would never ditch a friend like that, but I guess shit happens.
