Played the Fool

Yup, I've just been played the fool by a guy I thought was my friend .... and a little more. But, I've just found out that my suspicions all along have been true. He was just using me. Never would he consider an actual relationship going past being friends, not now ... not ever.

So. I'm done letting him play me like a toy, like the fool I knew I'd turn out to be. Yet, I still let him in. The attention was nice, but that's all it was because now he has "someone" to give real attention to. And, I'm tossed out like yesterday's trash.

They say you should be cautious when entering a "friends with benefits" situation. One person will always get hurt. I didn't think about this too much since dude moved away. But, he still wanted what we had .... long distance. Contact wasn't constant, maybe we talked every couple weeks, but the interest, the attraction was all still there.

Never the less, dude led me on because he didn't tell me he was seeing someone. As his friend, I thought he'd open up and tell me something like that. In fact, I know we talked about that before. But, he's a coward by nature and I have no interest in keeping someone like that around. I said goodbye and burnt that bridge like it was going out of style.

Moving on .....
