amyO Posted December 30, 2013 Posted December 30, 2013 A few months ago I met a really great guy through mutual friends. I didn't think much of him except that he was funny and really awesome to talk to. I knew he had a girlfriend so again, I didn't look at him as anything more than a friend. I know he and his girlfriend have always had problems (they've been dating about a year and a half now) and have broken up once or even twice since they started being together. The past few months we have gotten closer as friends and get along really well. He's never been inappropriate towards me and has never made any advances whatsoever, but it's very obvious he likes me from the way he jokes around and what not. Even other people joke around that we'll probably end up marrying or being with each other one day. We usually talk to one another every week, but it's usually about school, work or what our friend's plans are for the weekend. It's always very friendly and respectful. There was only one time that he said something that I was surprised about. He was bartending one night and his girlfriend and me were both at the bar. He paid no attention to her at all, but texted me saying that he was happy I was there to support him at his bartending night. I sometimes forget he's even in a relationship since he never brings up his girlfriend to anyone, they never hang out and even if they are in the same room, they don't even go near one another. I have a feeling their relationship might be coming to an end in the near future, but on the other side I also have this feeling that it could just maybe be a bump in the road. I know it sounds fishy, but he really is a great guy and cares about everyone. I don't know if he's confused or trying to figure out his feelings. I feel myself starting to develop feelings and I'm terrified of falling too deep. I know it's wrong to even be texting him, especially now that I have feelings and he obviously does too, but I don't know how else to feel. It's a really weird situation for me. I feel pretty awful for her and I'm not this "type" of girl. I guess i'm a little in over my head already. Should I walk away completely or still be there to support him to a degree and see what unfolds between them? I would never want to be the reason for a breakup.
OpheliaSong Posted December 30, 2013 Posted December 30, 2013 Be his friend but make it clear that you aren't the type of girl to get involved with a guy who has a gf. He isn't available. End of story.
