Having the upper hand.........

Ok, ok I'm sure everyone is sick & tired of hearing about my saga with my dear friend "Forrest".  This very well may be the end of my "crush" on him.  He's a great friend & confidant.  We have intelligent conversations, we have friendly debates & air our opinions. However he charms women & when the novelty of a woman wears off he loses interest & the cycle continues.  He likes the thrill of the chase & says once he gets it he just loses interest.  He says it's the excitement of learning about & finding out about someone new (and probably getting a piece of ass).  I think I'm finally seeing that he's not the type of guy I would want to be with.  Now he's being extra friendly with me, seems jealous of my other half (asks if "he's" around, won't mention him by name), and calls several times a day.  Maybe it's just that now he may be interested I lost interest.  It's good to see him squirm a little.  Hah! I feel victorious - I have the upper hand now! I'm listening to some songs by Maria Mckee.  One in particular reminds me of him.   It's called "Can't pull the Wool".  I especially like the lyrics:  You have no fear.  You got the mirror baby, you got a good tailor.  You have no fear.  You're not afraid of losing or being left alone.  That suit you're in fits you to a tee.  But you're waltzing round a landmine if you think you're bluffin' me.  Listen, you say you know how it feels baby, but you don't know what it's like.  And you can't pull the wool over the little lambs eyes.  I've learned a little bit about being hard.  I can see you, I can see you baby.  Ever poised for some eternal snapshot.  Well I know you, you needn't worry baby.  I won't blow your cover, I'll tell 'em what you got.  I won't blow your cover, don't sweat it out.  But you can't pull the wool over the little lambs eyes.

 

I love him as a friend, but am disgusted by his behavior when it comes to women.  He doesn't become emotionally attached to them, it's purely physical.  How can he be such a great friend but be such a jerkoff too? I'll never know, but I feel enpowered that I overcame this thing because it was making me miserable.  Saga ended.....................
