My Side Of The Story

The Other Girls

Well, my best friend and her started dating. It really made me feel like I wasn't enough for him. I let them be and tried to get over him. This would be my first of many attempts to get over him.

I pulled the classic 'can't get him, go to his bestfriend.' It was a pretty good relationship until I realized I dated that guy as a rebound trying to get over my best friend. When I realized that well, I got really distant from him real quick.
I broke up with that guy a few days before our 2 month anniversary. What a way to go out, right? 

That guy acted like he didnt care that we weren't together for a few months then came crawling back. Wasn't a great look for him. I broke up with him March 13th 2020, I think. At least after the 17th we didnt have to see each other because of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Meanwhile, my best friend and the other girl were still dating. She took his phone once and blocked me so I couldn't talk to him until like May when he unblocked me.

Things with my best friend and that other girl got a little rocky going into summer that year. Yeah it was okay for them until she started talking to other guys. My best friends didn't like that too much. He got really worried that she would dump him. That didnt happen until July. But the worry was there for a while before that happened.

I helped him through that breakup and while they were dating we came up with something <6. Because <3 was for his girlfriend and <4 was for his best friend that wasn't me. I didn't like <5 all too much because I felt a little closer to him than that so <6 it became. It was more than just a symbol. It meant we were more than best friends even if we weren't dating. <6 means that we are blood and no matter what we dont give up on each other.

He got bored being single and he dated this girl who snuck out to meet him at like 1 in the morning, like an idiot. They didnt even last a month but they had a thing going on for 2 months at one point.

( Kind of confusing. Even for me and I know more about it than you reading this.
It's okay.
It doesn't make sense. Back to the story )

School time rolls around again and my best friend and that first girl become a thing on and off for awhile. She was toxic and he was masked by her promises that were made only to be broken.

Early October 2020 he was finally done with her for good (or so he thought.) For a while before they broke up for the last time he was telling me "the next time she screws around with another guy I'll drop her and go to you."

That wasn't exactly executed right away. It took almost a month of us flirting. Not to mention me sneaking out for him.
