Why do we stop being friends with pple that we cant have?
Question Posted Thursday November 9 2006, 9:57 am
Ok, theres this guy that I'e been talking to at school and we both talk about things that we both like and he's really nice and great to talk to. We would flirt innocently even though I have a b/f which I kept telling him after he kept making sexual remarks towards me. Then he started acting a little less like a friend and more like he was intresested in me and kept asking me when I'll dump my boyfriend. Now he's acting really immature and talks obviously trying to make me jealous by mentioning some girl that he likes to someone next to me. And he made a sexual remark to me the other day which i just anwsered by saying "Wouldnt you like to know" and he said "No...Ive moved on!" LOL I dont understand why hes so desperate to not be single and have a g/f and why he has to be immature and rude to me just beacause I wont break up with my faithful boyfriend of a year which I definitly think I see a future with. Should I stop talking to him altogether? Is there only one way he'll see me as and never as a friend? Why do we stop talking to people that we can't have? Why dont we accept what they've decided and who've they picked? Isnt it better to have someone as a friend rather than nothing at all?

As immature and annoying as it is, you've gotta feel a little sorry for him. He is completely infatuated with you. It's probably all he thinks about. There's not a lot you can do about it. You could make him stop by scaring him. It might not work and you could end up losing him as a friend that way, though. Another way would be to set him up with another girl. That could be difficult, but at least he'd stop giving you as much attention. The situation you are in really sucks because the best way to handle it is to wait it out and basically just get used to him being an idiot to you. He'll get over you eventually. Eventually could be 4 years, but there really isn't a lot you can do, sorry. Good luck. [ sizzlinmandolin's advice column | Ask sizzlinmandolin A Question ]
