I met this guy over the summer. we talked once. I met him on halloween at his big party. he kept flirting with me, he was really sweet. later on a bunch of us (guys from my school who he knew also & my cousins & her friends) all started party hopping. it was fun & he was such a sweetie all nite.
After that night, we talkedd on aim a lot. I was really starting to like him.! so I realized that one of my friends knew him and I asked her about him. she told me; "oh yea. are u guys talking?" I said we were just attracted to each other but weren't talking like that." then she said "oh because you know he has a gf of 10 months!" WOWWWW. I told her I'd confront him & I did. he called me and he admitted he did, but I had reminded him of his 1st love. we talkd on the phone more for about 2hours. I knew I should hav just got off the phone after I asked and been done. he kept flirting & I wuldnt flirt back & he'd say "gosh you remind me of her so much blah." ugggh. its so wrong.
the next week my cousin and I had a house to ourselves & her & him talk as friends & she wanted him to come over. I said ok, so we could all hang out. We watched funny youtube videos. I was really starting to like him unfortunately.! We were watching a movie & got bored & started talking. We were talking TOO much, started kissing, & stuff happened, but not sex. I am NOT the type of girl to do that I don't know why I did that. after we were done. We talked for about an hour. he said he felt really bad & I did too. I asked about his girlfriend and it sounded like she didn't have time for him. she never shows up to any of his football games, she never calls them, they text only after school, and never wants to hang out over the weekend. I can say I didn't believe him at first, but our mutual friend agreed.
The next night he invited us to a party. We got lost & he left the party super far away to meet us. he even took his friends car. But anyways, All of his gf's friends were there except her. We then left with him in different cars & stayed later.
But wow. I feel really bad. He really wants me to his game friday. I want to, but I just want to be done with him. I'm disappointed in myself, I know what it feels like to be cheated on. I don't know how to let him go? wat to say or anything?
You did screw up. Messing around with guys in relationships is no go. But people make mistakes and it doesn't sound like you pursued him without regard to his status, you just like him. The badness is more on his side than yours.
That being said, I understand unhappiness. If he truly ISNT happy and he's straying, he needs to nut up and break up. Part of becoming a man is learning to make the tough choices when theyre the ones you need to make.
Plus, you havent given me any indication that hes lied to you. It sounds like he's a decent guy who has screwed up because he is screwed up (in the head) and doesn't know how to get himself out of his situation.
Your job is to stand back. If you want him, tell him so, but don't see him again until he can take you out on a date as a single guy.
Tell him to break up with his girlfriend and date you. Tell him you can't see him again until he does that, because you don't want to be just friends and you don't want to be his "other woman"
Tell him that you don't deserve less, and you'll do more for him than she will. If he tells you all these things and can't leave her, then either he's lying or has some dependency issues you don't want to deal with. [ WittyUsernameHere's advice column | Ask WittyUsernameHere A Question ]
