Loving Marshall is easier
Hooray for boy troubles.
Only... Not.
I've posted about this here as well.
So one of my oldest friends (not including ppl I'm related to, or live next door to) has apparently been in love (he didn't say "love" but he appears to have a decent thesaurus) with me pretty much since we met over 7 years ago. He is one of the best people I know! And while I am somewhat attracted to him, he has bad timing. To be fair I did confide in him about a crush a few months ago, but I'm not really ready for a relationship at this point in time. At least not one that's meant to survive more than a few months. I've been hurt pretty badly and I'm not keen on spending entire nights sobbing into my mother's comforting presence. And it would be more than just the one night if Z and I had a wielding romance and then broke up. He's been there for me through a lot. He's more into me than I am him. I mean, yeah we've been flirting on and off for 6-7 years, but I didn't realize he was actually interested in me the whole time. I know that sounds stupid but there you go.
All the ladies I've gotten advice from say not to give in. That I should sort myself out before I even consider it, but the gents say go for it. Admittedly, only 2 guys, other than Z, but 4 girls.
Loving Marshall is so much easier. I just read stories, ache for him a bit, drool over pictures and enjoy some kickass songs.
No worries about hurting him or destroying one of my oldest friendships and potentially, far fewer tears.
