GAF, I'm in lust with my best friends "ex"-girlfriend, but the circumstances are weird and not typical. First a little background.
Anyhow, this story begins on a little website called FFN.net. My best friend met his GF there on the forums of the site and they seemed to hit it off when all of the people on the forums talked through MSN messenger years ago. It gradually escalated to phone conversations, four-ways, three-ways, etc. Anyhow, that being said, keep in mind that we are HUNDREDS of miles away from each other and yet they still did the long distance relationship thing to my
disappointment. They had their share of off and ons and break ups, never ONCE in three years or so, seeing each other face-to-face, but we all got to know each other pretty well, through, as mentioned before, Skype and phone convos.
Something about the relationship made me
.envious. Not necessarily wanting to be in his place, because fuck long distance relationships, but I just wanted
her. To fuck her, and nothing more.
Thing is, I don't love this girl at all, I'm under NO such delusions. Hell, honestly, even IF he wasn't in a relationship nor planned on it, I wouldn't get in a relationship with her. Why? Simply because, she's attractive enough to have sex with, yes, but I wouldn't want a relationship with her at all, because she's not attractive enough to go THAT far. You ever have those women who if you were being as objective as possible aren't all THAT, but for some reason your dick wants to just dive right in and never resurface? That's EXACTLY what I'm in right now. Plus, in addition to that, a whole lot of other miscellaneous bullshit that doesn't need to be said.
Anyhow, as of now, they are broken up for good, but she still talks to me as a friend
I hope. While some part of me reads some of the texts we have as just platonic, some other part of me feels a bit
not necessarily creeped out just
uncomfortable. I told her now since I'm on my own (we all chatted and met when I was in HS) I could go see her and the others that were too far away for us to see. While I could see the platonic side of things, there's that *hint* that if I *tried* hard enough, I could possibly sleep with her, IF I so desired. I do, don't get me wrong, but at the same time, I don't feel like its worth it to betray my brother in all but blood, even IF she's an ex GF. The guilt would eat me alive.
But the feeling of "God I want to fuck your brains out so bad, but I can't." Even if she came on to me (which I doubt, but given how I don't know how she's feeling at the moment or what's her mental state [I mean that in the nicest way possible, not saying she's crazy at all, just an expression] who knows?) even then I doubt I'd indulge unless she was butt ass naked (again, extremely unlikely, but this girl even after all these years still manages to surprise me) and my lust took over.
How do I deal with this? I KNOW that'd I'd regret it if I did indulge and it happened, and I know my best friend would, rightly, feel betrayed, even if it was an ex he never saw. I KNOW that I don't love her at all, romantically. But, my feelings of wanting her just won't go the fuck away. Which is why when I do see her ( I promised) I'll keep physical contact to a bare minimum, just to be on the safe side. I'm confident I can restrain myself, but that doesn't mean it's unshakable.
Help?
