starting from january 2002 and eventually coming to a dreadful conclusion in april of the same year, i also fell for the prettiest girl i had seen - which, i suppose, was not your same gal
- and she also had a boyfriend whose shadow was so thin and pale that i almost came to think she had made it up.
although she wasn't as blatantly explicit as your target is, a fair deal of puzzling statements and weird behaviour took place on her part while i acted the "friendship" act and didn't try to hit on her at all. she used to spent huge amounts of time with me without as much as receiving a phone call from her bf - whom of course i never met - and this guy's features or thoughts or actions never made an appearance in the conversation: she seemed to ignore him altogether, and he seemed to ignore her.
my efforts - and at one point hyena's - to get closer to the core of what the girl was thinking/feeling and her real stance towards the phantom boyfriend didn't net up any sensible result, except for one night when she burst into tears in my car claiming she was so very happy in her relationship (yes, i know it doesn't make any sense).
to cut a long story short, she left for germany for a period of five months on a university project. a week before her departure i made the greatest effort to have her have a good time and forget her current predicament - namely having to face the loss of a relative - while all the time i was being treated as a ghost myself, since she spent no empathy on me, nor she tried to get closer in any kind of way.
a month or so after her departure, she decided to let me in to the precious information that she and her bf had split - as i was later to understand, simply because of total mutual indifference, surprise surprise - and after that i only hear from her every once in a while, when she decides she feels like seeing or talking to me. as far as i reckon, she's still a single.
why do i write all this now to you, poldarn?
because i think you shouldn't trust her, and my experience proves it.
her feelings are numb, or watered-down, or introvert, and there's nothing that says this is specifically directed to her bf only. she's in a relationship, and yet she seems to ignore it: is she prepared to notice anybody else? is she
interested in noticing anybody else?
chances are she's just way too deep in her own fantasy world where bf's are disposable and friends are a silly purple haze. you might be making the way too understandable mistake of assuming
you are going to make all the difference for her: beware.
as an afterthought, it is possible that the girl i mentioned scans through the pages of this board every once in a while. this is a very good reason to keep on debating her lack of sensitivity and social skills, don't you think so? hyena?
