Hi, I'm 17 and just before the new year someone who used to be a good mate of mine managed to get a girlfriend and he still is with her now, however about 6 months ago I was forced to help sort out a huge argument between the two over MSN. In doing so i was told by her (Becky - 15) about how much of an idiot he (Ryan - 18) is towards her all the time and how often they were arguing. As a result of this I have always been there for her to cheer her up when she is down and especially after Ryan had managed to put her in tears through shouting at her or playing some the sickest practical jokes i have ever herd of because i have always been here for her. an example of how he is is that he more or less forced her to get to her knees, and well, ill leave the rest to your imagination. another would be that she was about to leave for a major operation and he told her that he would rather be out having fun than staying in hospital by her bedside.
After a while i started to develop feelings for Becky but tried to discarded them as she was with my mate and she seemed to like Ryan so much to even think about liking someone else.
Well, Ryan isnt one for changing his personality and the way he acts towards her, and as he found out that me and Becky had been helping each other when we were upset about something, he became jelous, especially as because of how he is, she would rather go to someone else to share her feelings. Also as a result of his jelousy, he started to slag me off behind my back with a load of lies and really telling her what he knew would upset me the most and that my other mates had also been slagging me off about the subject.
Only the other week becky told me that she had become fed up with ryan and was going to break up with him, i asked why and she couldn't give an answer. I asked if it was because of me and if she saw me as more than a mate. she said yes and that she had liked me a lot for a while.
She has only not gotten round to getting rid of him because he had changed a little and she didnt have a reason to get rid of him without raising suspicion on me. There has only been one time since we found out that we both liked each other that she had the chance and she couldnt then because the argument was blamed on me and i was threatened to keep things together between the two by Ryan. She does not want to be with him.
It wont be long untill those two finish now and me and becky both know that we will see each other a couple of weeks after that happens as ryan will be doing all he can to spot us with each other.
Currently i am able to physically be with her on my own twice a week when she comes home from school (Y11) as those two days i have the afternoon off at college but we only see each other as friends and no matter what anyone else thinks we are just mates for the moment.
And no ryan doesnt know anything about this story and it is not him that bothers me to much, its my other mates and how they will react to it
Does anyone have a similar story to this?
