11 years ago in High School. He was going out with my best friend at the time. She cheated on him, they broke up. Up until that point id not really liked him, he had a reputation for being a bit of a player and seemed arrogant. But she begged me to be friends with him and convince him to take her back. Didnt go to plan
I got to know him and we had a lot in common. His friends were nicer than mine. I met some amazing people through them all. It felt like he was the first person to ever see me as more than just a broken spiralling mess.
after a few months she stopped trying and moved on. She went out with the guy she cheated on him with, and he cheated on her.
Her and my other friends knew, they live near me and saw him at my house, and they didn’t tell her. It was weird.
She found out at prom and tried to punch me in the face
We’ve been married 7 years though so I guess it was worth it. I do feel bad, but I found my person so I also don’t.
