Hello,
Was just thinking about posting this as a topic for discussion as it is now five and a half years since I fell in love with the best friend of the father of my child. Hurrah! Not.
I had been with ex for a couple of months before I met his BF who was closer to my age and whom I had much more in common with. We always spent a lot of time together as a threesome (not in that way...unfortunately), had some really good nights. I often caught BF looking at me funny - long, hard, plaintive gazes - and felt that the attraction was probably reciprocated in some way, though I'm not sure to what extent.
I literally fell for him the moment I saw him (in the middle of the night in an Asda car park, as it happened). Ex and I never worked out, we split up when I was pg, and are now nothing more than civilised friends/co-parents. However it makes me feel quite sad that nothing ever happened, or ever will, between me and BF. It is almost as though he is 'The One' and I can't have him, and that anything else I have is just messing around, filling time before I die a lonely old spinster.
Of course BF is a faithful BF and would never betray ex. Ex used to joke that there was an attraction between us. Well there was. He is gorgeous, everything I could ever wish for, we can talk for hours, even think the same thoughts. But it ain't never gonna happen.
Anyone had anything similar?
