Not having a warning, that’s the “flash” part of flashing back. 🙂
When we last saw Dax in the future present, he said he was going to get help, and then we flashed back to the current future past: It would seem reasonable to assume that the help he’s going to get is from his old planet-destroying-merc college buddies, and this is how we’re being introduced to the characters and his relationship* with them, which would be why we are flashing back. (Of course, since that’s the reasonable assumption, I’m probably wrong.)
*Bonus points for dramatic tension if one of his old buddies is now dating/married to/divorced from his former girlfriend. 😮
He looks awfully stunned there, even more so than you might expect for a sudden unexpected breakup. Are you sure that’s exactly how it went down? I think maybe it was something more like THIS? Hmmmm…
And thus, The story of Dax’s Friendzoning unfolds….
No, that’s not friend-zoning. They were definitely a couple. That’s the tale of Dax getting dumped.
Why are we doing the flashbacks again? O_o
We really didn’t have a warning, it just happened. XD

Hmm… sounds like a reasonable assessment. Guess we’ll have to wait and see.
Fair warning, this chapter has a few flashbacks. It’ll all add together into a lot of payoff though (hopefully!)
Man, that’s rough. Poor Dax.
