It started out innocently enough but is now to the point where I can barely deal with it anymore.
Shy people, I have a question. If you introduce yourself to a girl and get to know her, but she asks you about your co-worker, and months later they're practically dating, would you take that as being passed over for a better option?
And if this happens to you all your life where you know a girl but she wants to know your best friend and eventually they're dating, is it because you're shy to make your intentions known or because you're just not attractive enough?
I am dealing with a situation at work. My co-worker and I who is also my best friend for about five years work 2 floors down from a girl who we both met about a week apart. I met her first and was chatting her up for a week, making her laugh and whatever. I was saying in the back of my mind that she's a really cool girl, meaning that my hopelessly romantic self would eventually fall for her. I also know the pattern in my life, and once she met my best friend, then I'm a sidebar. Just as the stars aligned, she meets my coworker/bestfriend and the next thing you know, they're a couple.
It would not have hurt so much if it weren't for the fact that I overheard her saying that Brian (my coworker) was a hottie. She even did that little wave of her hand as if it were burning. She found out through me that he was single when we were hanging out during a company party and she basically asked me 'what's Brian's story, he seems like a cool guy and you two are best friends right?' Now I see them about 5 times a day talking laughing flirting the whole deal.
I keep telling myself to keep my emotions in check. I am very frustrated and angry at my personal cupid for fucking me over yet again. And unfortunately I am developing a crush on her.
My question is, why should I continue to hold on to hope for love when this shit happens to me like clockwork and has happened to me like clockwork since 1984. My shy ugly ass has run out of answers. Fuck love. Thank you for your time.
