Help Me: I’m caught in a love triangle! I think.
admin October 14th, 2007

Kudos to The Fourth Baudelaire for being the first ever guy to write us! Hope our response helps you sort things out.
Hey Kristel and Lauren,
Great site you got running here! The letter you’re reading now is from a guy – just so you know. Now that we got that out of the way, let me begin.
Yes, I do check out your site every now and then just to see what’s up. I love hearing your side of things. And I’d sure love to hear what you guys have to say about this little problem of mine.
How do you tell someone you like her if she’s totally in love with someone else? Do I even tell her of my true feelings for her?
I’ve known this girl for months now. And I’ve been crazy for her for just as long. Problem is, she’s feeling the same way for someone else. It’s a damn love triangle. But there’s a twist! The girl doesn’t know that there is a triangle, and the guy, well, probably doesn’t know what a triangle is. Yeah, I’m bitter – I know.
Under normal circumstances I would have just stepped back and watched the two hit it off. I’m not a push-over. It’s just that I don’t like complications. I HATE love triangles. I’d rather watch the girl I like go with another man than get myself involved in some sort of situation where I’d end up losing anyway.
It’s different this time, though. This girl I couldn’t get enough of. I haven’t been this happy and hurt since that time back when I was a kid. I couldn’t sleep thinking of her. I couldn’t get over the fact that the guy likes her and she also likes the guy. I’m being left out of the story as days go by.
But it’s not all bad. She’s treating me like a good friend should. At least I’m getting some love back – even though it’s not the kind of love I was hoping to get in return.
And the fact that she’s working so close to me isn’t helping. It’s driving me nuts! Just when I’m trying to move myself away, she’ll pop up.
I know at this point she has her own problems. I on the other hand had made HER my problem. Friends had told me this isn’t going to work out. And they’re probably right like they always are. There’s no escaping how I feel for her though. Despite everything I’ve said, I’m still not going to tell her. Maybe I will in the near future but not now.
I am curious however as to what you guys have to say about this. Maybe you could convince me to blurt it out now. I highly doubt that. For some reason I think you guys would be taking the same side as that of my friends. And like them you’d probably tell me to go out with other people for this isn’t going to work.
Oh well, I guess it’s never safe to assume so much. For all I know you guys could be proving me wrong or may have another say on the issue. I hope to hear back from you guys.
