<human>: Provide a brief overview of the text.

In order to comply with the rules - I've known both other people involved in this for about a year (hopefully that counts as length of relationship)

When I was with my ex (I'll call her N) my friend (who I'll call L) told me at the beginning of the relationship that I was an idiot for being with her. L told me that she used to be friends with N, but she turned into a bitch and didn't deserve me.

I later asked N about this and she explained that she went through a rough patch in her life, but she's out of it now. So I didn't hold it against her.

Well eventually N broke up with me because she wasn't fully over her ex. I was a bit upset about it so me and L went through a period of bitching about N to each other and generally agreeing that she sucks.

N generally seemed quite apologetic about the whole thing so I didn't *actually* hold much against her.

Well recently I've been talking to N again, and I agreed to get coffee with her on Tuesday. L is *PISSED*. Which I don't want because she's a pretty good friend. I want her to be my friend because she's pretty cool, but at the same time I'm trying to be a good person by being friends with N.

I mean, L doesn't really have a right to tell me what to do here. I know she's just trying to look out for me but she's being very very immature about it. She can't just tell me what to do. I understand where she's coming from but she's really really having a go at me for this when all I'm doing is getting coffee. She's telling me N is manipulative and just wants to use me, stuff like that. I honestly don't know if she's right, but I'm just trying to be friendly to N either way.

What do any of you make of this?
<bot>: L hates N. N is my ex. I agreed to get coffee with N. L is pissed at me. What do I do?
