So.... my best friend dumped me because his girlfriend doesn't like the fact that we hang out. Jealousy at it's ugliest. He left me an email "just to let me know", (not having the decency to even call, when he should have just talked to me in person). Well, we did have "feelings" for each other and that was his excuse with me; because he didn't want anything to get in the way of his relationship with his girlfriend. The fact that he has feelings for me should say something about the way he feels for his girlfriend. This whole thing is high school drama all over again, only he is 20 years old! It is his first girlfriend though and she is still in high school (that might have a lot to do with the high school-like drama).
So here are the important parts of the story. I went down to the Navy base in San Diego last week to visit Tim, and while there we took a picture of me and him. When he went up north to see his girlfriend this weekend she saw it on his phone and had a flipping cow. So they got in this huge arguement and supposedly almost broke up over a picture! 16 years old all over again! So to make her happy he decided we couldn't be friends anymore, claiming that she'd been hurt before and he didn't want to do that to her. Has he even thought that that is a form of manipulation? I know, I've used it before! LOL Now that I'm on the outside of a relationship like that, it's funny to see how easily people can be made to look fools, and actually be ones for that matter.
Apparently my feelings and the fact that I, too, have been hurt before, and I'm sure in more detail than her (considering her experience is a high school relationship and foster care), didn't matter or come to his mind. We've known each other for like, six years, and he's only been with her since January but apparently that doesn't matter either. I'm also sick and need my friends and family around me, not stepping on me. But you know what? I don't need a friend who can discard people this easily. That's just a waste of my time and energy, when I would give my life for my friends.
