I really like this guy and have for going on 2 years now. We've known each other for a while but we didn't really get to be friends until 3 years ago. He was in the hospital and I and another friend of ours went to visit him, but he was in surgery so we just left a note and our present for him with the nurse. Today my friend Lisa told me that when she saw him this afternoon, he told her he was glad he was in surgery when we came. Am I wrong to be completely offended by that?
pinkkittykathy answered Saturday January 6 2007, 2:12 pm: no, you like this guy & it is probaly a little envy. if lisa is his friend then why is it wrong for him to be glad to see her? i don't think you were wrong i think you just feel as if he is rightfully yours in a sense and you dont like that he "likes" other girls. does lisa know you have a crush on him? are you going out with the guy? have you two flirted?

You have been his friend for 3 years, and you took the time and cared enough to go to the hospital to see if he was doing alright, brought him a get well gift, even.
What kind of friend doesn't appreciate that?
However, you could be taking it the wrong way. There is always that possibility.
Be sure and not assume he was rude, confront him about it. Being a friend means being able to share your true feelings. [ Brandi_S's advice column | Ask Brandi_S A Question ]

If nothin hasnt happened in two years between ya'll but friendship, then you know he doenst like you and he is probably gettin tired of being around you so much because he knows you like him.
Word of advice- find a new guy. Show this guy that your life doesnt revovle around him.

He might`ve meant it like, he probably didn`t want yall to see him looking like crap or something. Unless he meant it in the way you`re taking it, then of course you have every right to be offended by that. He probably was just making a joke to cheer himself up, don`t be mad or anything just yet. Find out why he said what he did & you`ll understand a lot better. =]
