it all stinks something rotten and i feel sorry for you because you're obviously in love and would rather listen to her excuses than break up.
You're being a bit soft in my oppinion, and if it was me i'd have really strong words with the guy and the girlfriend!
Take care, and the best of luck.
Nah, he's got an online name 'Paladus' as well, for online games, and he calls himself that too. He's a bit weird in that respect. Wehn they frist started talking, he used to tell her he wrote stories about himself as a knight, and she'd make a good heroin / princess, and she joked and called him her hero. Reaaaaaallly got to me, but she's shown me the texts she's sent him, and I think his sudden 'lovedness' is down to the fact that they've got closer the past few days, but it seems apparent to him that they're not going to get any closer.
I know it stinks, and I've been very careful in making sure I'm not being lied to. But, from the evidence she showed me (texts from each of them, etc.) then I believe her, of course she speaks to him online as well and I don't know what she said there, but I can only presume they were the same line as texts (she just texts back saying 'hope you're ok x luv [xxx]'.
To be fair, the guy is the obsessive kind, but I do think she did encourage him, which is wehre a lot of the problems stem from. Just joking with him about calling him her hero (and this was months ago) still lingers in his memory, he still thinks she means it.
Shes told me he sent her some more texts and shes going to show me the dialogue today, so if nothing else, she's being open about it.
To the other comment: what I meant about her realising he fancied her - well she has known, but now he seems completely obsessed, to the extent where he knows hes putting tension on our relationship but doesn't mind, and he seems a bit fake, and just wanting to go out with her. I suppose she's one of those girls who thinks she can change people, she can get through to the nice guy in him who always worries about her as a friend - but I'm sure he's only that nice because he's completely smitten with her.
Stepping carefully now though, because I cant/wont take anymore. It's weird, if it was anybody else, I would have dumped them long ago, but before we went out we were best friends, and our 'bond' so to speak goes deeper than a relationship, which I suppose in a way is why I've tried extra hard. BUT if theres no point trying anymore, then I'll just have to move on. I told her this, and said because we've been good friends, then I would hope we could stay friends, as we're a large part of each others lives, it would be weird without each other.
That might be awkard though... will just have to see how things pan out.
Thankyou everyone, getting support on here, or on my livejournal, or by PM, really does mean a lot to me, one of my other 'best' friends was a bit of a cow when I talked to her about it and just started going on about how much of a twat her boyfriend (my best friend) was - even though he's amazing to her (he had gone out with his friend, for the first time in a few months - big deal!).
Either that or she has TOLD him to send her some texts that she can reply to, and then show you, to divert suspicion from whatever they're up to?
what? he followed her? she could've told him to go away in fairness. sorry and all but i think you need to stop seeing the good in your girlfriend.
Yea, that's a possibility. Might be a bit far fetched though. :chin:
ahh the wicked world of paranoia
Tell me about it. I've contemplated the idea that at times there were code signals that meant I was around, so nothing bad please. (i.e. when I was sitting with her on MSN). But she's coming over mine tonight, which should be nice.
play it cool
Hope you're OK...
