Okay, so my best guys friend and I are both juniors at the same college. From the moment we met, we had everything in common and we’ve always been really close. At the time we became friends, we both liked other people, and so we alwyas remained platonic. He’s the type that every girl on campus follows, but he’s such a genuine person that he has a small circle of close friends, waited for the right girl to start a relationship for the first time, and had never been with anyone before that. I helped set him up with said girl, and they’ve now been dating for three months.
I started to realize a little while after they started dating that I had feelings for him. From the start, he had reservations about this girl. She’s kind of rude and really controlling; However, he felt that maybe he should just trying dating her, and maybe he would get over his reservations. As time went on, the girl began to become more and more controlling of him, and was insanely jealous of the close relationship the two of us share. (He has, frankly, a lot more in common with me than with her) Recently, he put his foot down and told her that if she couldnt stop being a controlling brat toward him and learn to treat me (as his best friend) with respect, he wouldn’t want to be around her any more.
He said that she seems “willing to change”. However, I think she’s just putting on an act to keep him from breaking up with her. Do you think he’ll eventually see the light regarding his girlfriend? Is there any chance he’ll see the potential for our relationship?
Thanks,
Tess
