The song is more about the loss of his relationship with his friend than it is the relationship with the girlfriend. He talks about how his friendship was closer than friends but "more like a brother". He speaks on the intentional decpetion leaving the friend "no room left to defend". He understands the type of person his friend was but assumed he wouldn't betray him in such a way. Not only did the realtionship with the woman dissolve but also their friendship and in turn the relationship the friend had with the woman. It also seems that there is a bit of hurt in the fact that the friend placed the woman in the middle, or the it could have been that the whole need to get her was a game to the friend because of the end of the song "how could you be so careless with her heart".
