am i a stupid jerk or just human?

this extremely sexy girl, a friend of mine who has a
boyfriend, was far too touchy-feelly for me to resist and it
was only inevitable that we would end up in some dangerously
intimate situation. the problem is not just that she has a
boyfriend, it's that i know that we could never make a
couple and i really just want to be her friend, yet her
attraction to me might be more serious than that. we didn't
sleep together or anything, but i feel i've made a deeper
connection than i should have, possibly giving her false
ideas about what i desire in our relationship. i am feeling
regret, but at the same time it didn't seem avoidable. it
doesn't seem fair that i should be so sexually attracted to
somebody i don't want a relationship with beyond
friendship.

maybe i'm making a bigger deal out of it than it is. i'm
known to be extremely sensitive. i think i have to talk
with her with a bit of seriousness before i sleep tonight
(we live on the same floor in a dorm) but i'm not sure yet
what i'll say.

this may not be place for this post, but it's so convenient
and relieving to tell these things to strangers in
anonymity.

you may want more than you think out of the relationship. i
don't think people realize how much other peoples looks
really affect what they do. you might want to think over it
alot and if you decide to get into something more than what
it is now, don't do it until the boyfriend is gone. but if
you want to be just friends you should let her know if
things get to be more than that. well, that's my advice. i
hope it's some help.

Id like to help but I am a stupid fumbler who always makes
bad choices concerning women.

you might be right. when i am physically attracted to
somebody i am emotionally attracted. there's no
distinction. i feel that if i let myself, i could fall in
love with anyone, which is why i'm hesitant to even think
that i want a relationship with somebody who i share no
common interests with. as much as i like this girl, we live
very very different lifestyles and i have trouble imagining
that she would ever understand me. there just seems to be
no answer.

ok, this post was just silly. i went to talk with her and
now everything is music. of course all i had to do was
verbalize, which i have a history of avoiding.

I'll say it plain m8, if she has a boyfriend, it's off
limits.

You have to respect that, otherwise you'll end up with a
heart broken by the same thing done to you.... :(

yes, totally off limits. the moment just sort fo crept into
reality. there had always been an attraction, but i assumed
i wouldn't let anything come of it. among a few reasons for
stoping the situation in it's tracks, one was the thought of
the other guy, who i think is the last person to deserve
such. i'm no asshole, life is just sometimes very
intoxicating, judgment imparing.

you.

yourself.......

live and learn eh?

Don't do anything while she's with the other guy. And by
anything I include any little things which may jeopardise
her current relationship (be that through making her want to
dump the guy or by giving him cause to be overly
paranoid/jealous - be this intentional or not). I've been
there (in the position of the other guy) and believe me it
hurts like fuck.

Listen to him. I have been cheated on and it permanently
rewired my brain in a dark way. If she wants you she should
have the courage to break up with the other guy. She can't
have her cake and eat it as one or more of you will get
hurt.

I haven't been cheated on as far as I know but this is
definately something I worry about. My self esteem is kindof
at an all time low (has been for some years now). I feel for
you man that has to be the worst thing ever. I have no idea
how I'd cope. Simple break-ups are bad enough - I become
desocialised and dehumanised and generally a wreak and fail
most of my courses.

I'd type what I went thru but the best way to sum it up is
that it's simply not good and it takes a long long time to
get over. I was a wreak and not fun to be around.

If I punch someone in the face I go down. If someone does
the same damage to your brain you have no comeback. It's
like because it's not physical it can't be classed as
damage.

Jeez this is something I really worry about because I'm
overly emotional (normal emotion squared) and so anything
small REALLY affects me so I dread to think... fuk Fuk FUK.
Does it still significantly affect you today?

Fuck yeah. But you never know and worrying is the worse part
so you can't do it until you prove it. The violence was one
of the worst things as I don't trust myself in that state.
You always find out tho, No possible way to hide those
things something will always pop up and warn you.

Violence! Shit! I don't think I'd ever lay a finger on
anyone in such a situation. The closest I ever came to that
would be recently when my accute and unjustified paranoia
wreaked a perfect weekend. So I went and slammed my fist
into a fire door until it went purple (still is a bit) but
that was more to damage myself and release pressure than
anything else.

Yes worrying is bad and generally causes you to see things
that aren't there. Gaahhhh! Help!

I wanted to fuck up all involved with a knife in each of my
paws but lucky for me I found whom my real friends where and
who the fake ass free ride bitches where.

I'm learning to cope with my paranoia slowly. I was running
myself to high and I realized at the end of the day even
with all my worrying that nothing would change so whats the
use? You think of a potential problem so why role play all
the bad scenarios in your mind over and over. Spot the
problem, resister it and move on. Worrying is a bottomless
pit and limitless. Worry about things that are there not
things that could happen or you will be on all your
lifetime.
