TestStand Posted February 7, 2008 Share Posted February 7, 2008 Thats all the same person. I'll try to make this short so someone actually reads through this all, and I have to be up early tomorrow. I just gotta get this off my chest and see if I can get any response back. About a year ago, I moved into a house with a friend of mine from college (roommates for two years) and his girlfriend. They had been dating for about 3 years prior to this. She and I got along pretty well, and so far the three of us have been smooth sailing. He works a lot, so she and I get a lot of time to spend just hanging around together, just the two of us. We have a ton in common and have pretty much become best friends. They broke up about a month ago. He is a bit of a pushover, and she is getting over some personal stuff in therapy regarding a past abusive relationship, mother issues, and general anxiety (mostly resulting from the first two). Apparently, she has been unhappy in the relationship for a couple of years now and has gotten to the point where her low self-esteem is no longer forcing her to "need" to be with someone. She loves him, but she really prefers (and is attracted to) a more forceful personality. He moved out of their bedroom and into the office next to my room. He keeps his emotions bottled up, around me at least, and seems to be taking it OK. Things are weird, no doubt, but they are slowly getting weirder. She and I have been speaking on AIM the last few days (I'm out of town for work) and have touched on sex, relationships, life in general, but have danced around the idea of "us." I'm sure she has a thing for me(probably an understatement), but with all the changes she's going through and the situation with her (now) ex-boyfriend (again, good friend of mine) its very confusing. Oh, and in case you're still wondering, I am head over heels in love with her. She's everything I could ask for, and the first girl I've gotten to know that I think I could spend forever with. Any ideas/advice/experience would be totally appreciated. I'm new to this board and haven't explored around much, so if you just want to direct me to a similar thread I'd be happy to take a look.

norajane Posted February 12, 2008 Share Posted February 12, 2008 Nope. Way too much drama, especially since you live with both of them. She doesn't have her head together anyway, and the odds are you will be hurt in the end. Let it go. Maybe one day in the future when you don't live with either of them AND she's gone through her therapy, you'd have a chance. Right now, it just reads like disaster waiting to happen.
