We used to go out as a three sometimes (I’m female and the other two are male (M) and female (F)and knew each other through work). It was very obvious he likes her, unsure about her liking him. Both are in long term relationships.
I see F a lot just the two of us and we’re good friends, been away together etc. I think she would sometimes tell M we were meeting and he’d invite himself. Usually when it was just for a coffee or walk in the park during covid.
To be honest it was a good laugh but I knew I was the buffer or cover up as I’m sure his girlfriend wouldn’t have liked him meeting F on their own, especially because he’s cheated in the past.
M invited us both to his birthday and I ended up cancelling and then F cancelled based on the fact that I wasn’t going. This was a year ago. He never acknowledged my message cancelling and apologising about this but he acknowledged her message.
Now a year later he’s messaged me asking how I am.
I should just get mug tattooed right or I don’t ignore it?
