TheLostMan. Posted October 13, 2013 Posted October 13, 2013 (edited) You read the title, I have known this girl for years, she always liked me but I was too naïve to realize it. I finally this summer realized it and we started hanging out and I felt we had a strong bond. She knew my friend but my once I started talking to her more and more he seemed to always be around me when I am with her. She is perfect. And no, this is not one of those girls that you say is perfect, I know she is. I never really dated because I felt like it was a waste of time and effort and it is all for naught (which it is). Unfortunately the hormones in my brain have altered my emotions and they are extremely powerful. But it seems my friend is trying to steal her, she talks to me a lot and shows her affection for me when my friend is not around though. I feel like this will end in two ways -- My friend gets her and the friendship is ruined and my friendship with the girl is ruined I get the girl and the friendship is ruined and the girl and I will go on but leave my friend in the dust (Side note: I am a realist and have all relationships end in pain and IT IS ALL FOR NAUGHT) Love has brought the greatest people in history down. But do have any other option? It would be hard to rectify my friendship if he gets her, it has already happened to me once sadly. Should I just stay single? What is the point.

bubbaganoosh Posted October 13, 2013 Posted October 13, 2013 Two things. The reason she's "perfect" is because you can't compare her any other girl you dated because you haven't dated any other girl. Second thing. Old saying. You snooze. You lose. 2

This may be true but you don't have to touch a fire to know it's hot. She is into everything I am into (which is rare may I add). Second thing: I did not snooze, nor did I lose.
MercuryMorrison1 Posted October 13, 2013 Posted October 13, 2013 Pretty much what the poster above me said. You lack dating experience which is causing you to put this girl up on the ''perfection'' pedestal. Little advice here, no one is perfect...Male or Female, we all have faults, It'll get you hurt in the future if you put someone up on a pedestal like that...Trust me on this one. Secondly, dating is a competition. Now if your friend knows that you have feelings for this girl, than the ''bro'' thing for him to do would be to step down and let you pursue. But if he has feelings for her as well...Then you better start impressing her now, otherwise you might not stand a chance at winning her over. Keep in mind though, either way this go's, your friendship with both of them is now walking on thin ice. One wrong step could result in the end of your friendship with one or both of them.
