I know that he’s in a relationship now. I know that he likes her. I know that they’re continuing to become closer and closer.
…Yet, why do I have this attraction towards him? Is it because I have made the second leap from acquaintance to friends? Is it because he acknowledges my presence and jokes around with me? Is it because I was successful in my initial intention of becoming his friend?
Whatever the case, I must stop having this crush-like affection towards him. I need to remember that we are friends and will not go beyond close friends if he continues his relationship. I don’t want to ruin anything between us and his recent relationship with his girlfriend, even if I think she has her focus on her ex-boyfriend and his new relationship. Maybe it’s because I would act differently if I were in her place. I know I would enjoy his company whenever I would see him.
…I hope goods things will come my way in due course.
