The inner voice says stay out!
Ok, time for a sappy post.
This guy I used to like sometime back is kinda interested in a close friend of mine. At least that's my guess. And from where I see it, they're hitting it off pretty well. Except the girl is quite the bitch. At least when it comes to guys. She's my friend nevertheless, but I know her habit of dropping guys like hot potatoes after a few initial dinner and movie dates. It's like she gets a thrilling ego trip everytime she does that. And, invariably the guys feel miserable having been led on to think this would be their lucky chance. The silly creatures they are, they never learn. Anyway, a post on that some other time. So this time around, I'm having mixed feelings.
In a weird way, I want to warn him of where this is going, given that I know how serious my friend is about him. Knowing her, this is all there is to their 'close friendship', so if he's hoping for more, all he's going to get is a terrible heart break.
On the other extreme, something in me wants him to go through the pain of this heartbreak. I know, I am evil. But what to do, we all have our dark sides. So yeah. I want him to go through the whole heart break, the way I felt a while back. When I learnt he was interested in her. I didn't like it one bit, even though by that time I had no feelings for him. I don't blame him, cos we never got down to talking about us. But I completely hated it that he liked her.
It was denial at first, how could he like her, they don't have anything in common, for crying out loud. But what to do, love is like that. And given how my friend is so damn good at leading guys on with all the flirting and eye lid fluttering, the poor guy's lured into this trap. Ugh. I don't know, may be I should stay out and not meddle. At least that's what the little inner voice in my head has been asking me to do!
