If only every guy was like him...

The world would be such a better place. Everyone would be friends, and there wouldn't be a reason for jealousy. Every girl would be held tight in a long-term relationship because he sees the beauty in them and only them.

There wouldn't be such thing as cheating, or lying, or enemies, or hoes and bitches and sluts and flirts and fuckboys. If only.

If only there were 3.42 billion of him for the female population, no girl would feel left out. Every person would be happy.

I love him. And he loves me. But not in that way.

I'm in love with him. But he's in love with another girl.

His name is Slater. And he's been my best friend since we were in diapers.

He comes to me with anything he needs, and vice versa. And recently, he had broken up with his girlfriend, Madison. But he wasn't completely over it.

You see, Madison is a complete bitch. Excuse my French, but she is. And he thinks he's still in love with her after all of the shit that she does to him. He's not giving up on her. He asked me for relationship advice a while back.

"What should I do, Sydnei?" Slater said, leaning back against the tree. "I mean, I've got so many other choices of girls out here. I'm trying to stay focused on one, but it's hard."

"You've gotta do whatever you need to so you can stay focused on her," I said. "It's like girl therapy for you, delete contacts, pictures, the little things that make you not think about her. The one."

"You're saying I block them out of my life like that?" Slater questioned.

"No," I said. "You can still hang out with them and talk to them and stuff, but you've got to do anything you can to keep her on your mind."

And he did what I had told him that day. But I never knew it was about Madison. That he was only focusing on Madison. He wanted to get back with her. And I don't know why. A lot of us don't.

Slater did it. He was friends with every other girl, and focused on Madison. Although she had no concern of getting him back, he knew what he was doing.

Slater was the sweetest guys I've ever known. He's friends with everyone. And I mean everyone. He's too sweet for his own kind, and that's why every girl has got a crush on him.

If only I wouldn't have sunk down to people's level, my friendship with him wouldn't be ruined.
