well...it's happened again.
 
this time on an even bigger scale.
the guy i've been completely in love with and pining over and crying over and all the stuff that goes along with that has become my best friend.
 
we were lovers.
we were awkward
we weren't sure what we were.
became a stronger form of friends with benefits
but i can't keep doing it......i want more.
i want love.
i want mushy stuff.
i want romance.
and apparently there is too much in the way for that to happen with him.
 
and he's ready to date again......ready to find someone closer to love.
 
we still talk nearly every day.....
and now i get the stories of this girl and that girl.......
 
and it's deja vu.
i fell in love with my best friend almost 15 years ago.
it never went as far as this did......we never even kissed.
but we were still incredibly close.
we still are incredibly close.
 
this is love.
these are loves
the truest form of love.
to love a friend......and be accepted by them forever.
 
is it naive of me to want that in a relationship?
i want to end up witha  best friend that is in love with me.
but all i seem to end up with is best friends who end up with someone else?
 
now there are two.
one just married the love of his life....and i love her. and i've only met her twice. and i love her for making him so happy.
and the other is jumping into dating again....after finally having gotten over me.
i'm glad they are both happy. glad they are finding what they want.
 
so why am i so sad?
will he tug on my heart for years to come?
it took a decade for my heart to stop hurting over the first one.

    Dear Abby (Wombie) says, if you want the mushy romantic stuff, then hold out for that!  I am thinking you are sad because even though you are happy for him, you are still thinking, "Why not us?"  But if it was not meant to be, then you are still on the right track.  I married my "best friend" before.  I don't regret it because of our child that came later, but still---we should have been on the phone discussing our lives from a distance like we do now.  I wish for you to find all that romantic, mushy love!  (but remember to be friends, also!)

    it's like the biggest part of me is happy. and really really wants him to be happy.
    and then there's that little twingy jealous side that just really hopes she turns out to be a bitch.

    and yeah...i really couldn't end up with someone i wasn't incredibly close to. a best friend.
    it's just not in me.
  • wombat said on May 16, 2008....
    That feeling of jealousy is normal....my ex re-married a beautiful girl while I was still in pain and searching.  Inside I was screaming even though I wished him the best.  And she was nice and I liked her!  He told me that, "Yes, he was "happy."  He said that they were "best friends."
     
    I almost choked.  The two of us had been best friends for a few years before we married.  It's like he forgot.  Or he was just "repeating history." 
     
    They soon divorced also.
     
    (I married this one, and then we became best friends)  I think we both were just lonely and needed each other.  Life is strange.  Sorry about the complicated rambling.  My life is strange.
  • Fallyn said on May 16, 2008....
    i need complicated rambling right now.....i mean...really. you know? *sigh*
  • secretlife said on May 16, 2008....
    you better damn well not spend a decade pining over this one.
    you're older and wiser and you know what you want....so git out there and find it!!!!!
  • wombat said on May 16, 2008....
    You just ramble on.......I wish I could!   I would blow a few circuits if I did.  On the computer and on my brain!
  • Fallyn said on May 16, 2008....
    what happened to my comment? *shrug* oh well.

    secret......no....not pining....but right now every time i think about it i get leaky......and squeezy inside.
  • wombat said on May 16, 2008....
    Fallyn:  I bet you were commenting while we were PM'ing.....
     
    Give me another chance to PM when I don't have to get up early in the a.m.  I got the one, and answered, but I need to hit the hay soon!

    You'll find the love you want. Its just not him...at least not at this moment. I still love my best friend and I still talk to him. It just wasn't meant for it to be anything more than that. Well, it was for a time and it was perfect then. Then I grew up and realized I wanted something different.

    I'm not making any sense tonight. Not enough sleep. Nice to see you writing again.

  • Fallyn said on May 16, 2008....
    goodnight womby! go to SLEEP! we can finish tomorrow....or whenever. *HUGS*

    vacant....well....here for now anyway.....i'm in a mood lately.
    hermitish i guess.
    i kinda just wanna kick his ass too.
    but i'm a grown up.

    Freinds with the opposite sex is great and best friends is awesome but once true love calls having a best friend of the opposite sex can lead to complications if all three parties can't accept the relationship playing field as it has been set. Perhaps the field is just being cleared for you to meet your true love. My best friend dated friends for years before finding the woman who is now his wife. I hope your time is gonna come. It happened to evilT. It seems grapekoolaid is there too. Maybe your number is next...?
  • Fallyn said on May 17, 2008....
    *laughing* i'm not counting on it.....but who knows.
    anything is possible right?
