[quote=LoneSilverWolf] I'll say this. That first girl has a boyfriend already, so if you really do care about her, maybe it's best that you stand back, don't get in the way, and let those two be what they will be. I won't get into too much detail with my own personal life here, but I was in a similar situation...and find myself in something of a similar situation now (except the girl in question and I actually have a history together). Bottom line being, she's seeing someone and if said someone makes her happy....maybe you should let them be happy. Would be different if it was just someone she liked but wasn't actively dating, but if they are dating...maybe just try to let it go, hard as that is to do. [/quote] You are undeniably right. And I wouldn't argue with you at all. I'd merely like to bring out a problem with that. She constantly talks to me, and it's hard to let her be. We pretty much established that I would be her next boyfriend. Her current boyfriend is a dick, but he never does anything to her. So out of respect for them, I have been holding myself back. One thing I have a problem with is that we talked for two days straight while she had a boyfriend. It makes me ask myself "Why wouldn't she do the same thing to me?" I genuinely feel like we do have a special synergy, but maybe it means more to me than it does to her. Her boyfriend started sizing me up after school once. I may openly be a 'nerd', but I'm not a wimp. So I threw my arm over his shoulder and started strolling for a second, establishing that he would not be intimidating me at all. As opposed to simply beating the living shit out of him for sizing me up like that. So that is a tricky spot for me. The only reason I didn't beat him into submission is because she was watching. Sometimes I wish I did anyways. I was bullied as a young child, so showing mercy against people trying to intimidate me is excruciatingly difficult. I have a tendency to tackle anyone partaking in bullying on an impulse. It's the only impulse I have that I don't bite back.
