There's this girl. I'm crazy about her. This is our story.

[Funnyman42]

We met about 3 years ago on MySpace of all places. She popped up on the "people you may know" section. Her face caught my attention immediately. She was beautiful. It was just a profile picture that showed but it caught my attention in a major way. She had a very welcoming smile, beautiful long flowing hair, and two eyes that made me not ever want to look away. This all sounds cheesy, I know, but it really was like that. We had one mutual friend on MySpace, and unfortunately it happened to be a girl that I was having a "friends with benefits" type relationship. I know that sounds bad but I REALLY was blown away by this girl, simply from seeing her picture. I knew the mutual friend might end up proving a bit of a road block, but I didn't care. I was sold. I checked out her profile a little further and one thing was painfully obvious at that point; she had a boyfriend. And she looked happy. It was cool, though. We obviously did not know eachother. Hell, I had just seen her profile. But I thought what the hell, "send her a friend request anyway". So I did. And I messaged her. I told her I thought she was extremely pretty and jokingly told her of my disappointment in her having a boyfriend. Though I wasn't really joking. I didn't know her, but I knew I wanted to learn everything there was to know about her.

 

Over time we would exchange a comment on eachothers page here and there. Nothing major. But I still couldn't help wanting to check out her page every single time that I would see her post anything. So, I thought it was time. I created a secret admirer profile to flirt with her a bit. I figured worst case scenario she thinks it's creepy (not my intent) and I wouldn't reveal myself, no harm done. Best case scenario she thinks it's sweet and maybe I could finally really start to get to know her! Thankfully, she thought it was sweet and she was intrigued! She wanted some clues! So after a couple days of playful secret admirer banter, she had me pinned and was very flattered! I gave her my number and waited.

 

It took a couple weeks, but she finally texted. We exchanged a bunch of texts that day and I'll never forget the excitement it brought me to finally be talking to her! We would text on and off every now and then. I'm a stand-up comedian and eventually convinced her to come to a local show to check me out and so that we could finally meet in person. This was a couple years ago last December. I was pumped! After the show we talked for a few minutes and there was a very obvious chemistry. Afterward, I went down to a local restaurant with some friends and had dinner. Mid-dinner I got a text from her that read "you're cuter in person : )". We began talking and texting much more after that and I couldn't of been happier.

 

It all sounds good so far, right? Well don't forget that she still has that boyfriend. And by this time, I had began seeing someone else as well. I know it makes me sound like a real scum bag and maybe I was. But, keep in mind I never really thought I stood a chance with my MySpace girlfriend. After all, she is stunningly beautiful, has an amazing personality, and a very funny sense of humor. An absolute ten! Throw in the fact that she has a hunk of a boyfriend with whom she has a ton of history with. I didn't think I stood a chance. What could she possibly want with a goof ball, professional comedian like me?

 

We continued to talk and she kept coming to any local shows I would do in the area. Fast forward a couple months after we finally met in person and one night we were having one of our late night texting convo's that were becoming common between us. She mentions that she'd like to get into promlying shows and she was wondering if the guy that promotes my local shows might be interested in taking her under his wing and teaching her the ropes. He's a real klutz, but that's beside the point. I knew this was a GOLDEN opportunity to be around her even more. I told her I would set up a meeting soon between the two of them and myself, of course. That night happened just a couple days later.

 

We met at a local pub around nine. We all talked shop for a few and after a couple beers, my promoter pal took off. Then there was just the two of us. After a few cocktails, things happened. At one point, she looked up at me and said "I really want to make out with you right now". And that was all I needed. We were all over eachother the rest of the night. Couldn't keep our hands off of eachother. It lead to us grabbing some breakfast and crashing at her place. One of the best nights of my life. This lead to quite an affair over the next few months. But it was more than an affair. We were basically in a relationship while in our respective other relationships. I had always been ready to leave my girlfriend for her. But she was never ready to leave her boyfriend. We had many great nights together in this few month span. We only had sex once though. Because it was something bigger than that. One day I sent her a text, she didn't text back. And that was that. She didn't speak to me for months after that. It sucked. I reached out to her a lot with no responses. No explanation.

 

One day while on the road doing a series of shows in Dallas, TX, I received an email from her. My heart leapt! It was a long email. Long story short, she missed me. And God knows I missed her. We made plans to see eachother when I got back home and I couldn't wait. She still had her boyfriend and I had my girlfriend, but I thought we might actually be on to something this time.

 

We decided to meet at a local watering hole in our city where we both lived around. I arrived first and waited in the parking lot. She pulled in and parked next to me. We hugged and my God did she smell and look great! After a few drinks and catching up, she wanted to go outside to smoke. I went with her. As soon as we stepped outside, I made my move. I planted a big one on her. The chemistry was still there. She explained to me that she stopped talking to me because she felt guilty about what we were doing and wanted to try to make things work with her boyfriend. I respected that but she agreed that she should've explained sooner. She also told me that she was hoping she would just naturally get over me, but it never happened. Every time her boyfriend acted like an *******, she would think to herself he (me) wouldn't do that. We also talked about how we both felt that a relationship between the two of us would definitely work. The rest of the night was very hot between us. Just like before, we were all over eachother with an energy that couldn't be matched. One thing lead to another and we ended up back at a friends house on his couch, doing adult things.*

 

We had another hot couple of months. But, alas, she never left him. And eventually things cooled off due to her feeling guilty again. Eventually, we stopped talking altogether. And even though we stopped talking, she was never far from my thoughts. I would think "what if I had met her first"? We would drop eachother a line here or there but she would always deflect my attempts to see her as she was trying again to make things work with "him".

 

About a year came and went. I had a couple of girlfriends that came and went, always comparing them to her. I couldn't help it. We started talking again but nothing really came of it. We were just being friendly. Then one night out of the blue, sh texts me telling me that she is starting cosmetology school and she met a friend of mine, Lisa, who happens to be my best friend's girlfriend. I didn't think much of this, but it eventually lead to a hangout with he four of us one night at a restaurant in town. And it was a lot of fun. When the night came to a close and we all walked back to our cars, we said our goodbyes to our friends. We stayed and talked. Talking about how we had a great time and hat it had been too long. Then the convo turned a little more serious. She told me that she's not a big believer of fate but she doesn't think it's an accident that she and Lisa ended up in the same class together. She feels that eventually we're supposed to be together. We kissed. A lot. As snow fell around us. It was truly a very romantic moment. I wouldn't trade that moment for anything in the world.

 

That night lead to us talking and hanging out more. And to be honest, it seemed different this time around. We were hanging out during the day. Without any alcohol. And really getting to know one another. And just when things were looking great, her boyfriend started acting like he should. A good boyfriend. And she tells me she has to really try to make it work with him while he's making an effort.*

 

Eventually we started texting again. Without me or her pushing to see eachother. We started talking more than we ever had. Without the pressure. It was nice. I was waking up to texts from her and they wouldn't stop until we went to bed. So I didn't want to push it any further. But, eventually the texts slowed and weren't coming as often. And this is where I sit. She's distant again.

 

For those of you still reading, help me out. What should I do. I truly am nuts about her. I never stop thinking about her. I don't want anybody else. So I know all of you are going to suggest to just let it go. I don't want to. I've been in love before. This is different. I have an attraction to her that I cannot shake. Help me out.

will she still look as good in twenty or thirty years' time? she holds sway in a way that is unfair, she has the other guy and you too, just atmo she is beautiful

and two eyes that made me not ever want to look away.

 

If she'd have been a Cyclops, would you still be crazy about her? I think not.
