Q: I am a Denverite in my mid 20s. I recently met a friend’s boyfriend. The twist is that he is a guy that I have been shagging for about four months. The second twist is that he recently asked me to go to Bermuda with him.
Well, while we were all chatting with each other, my friend flashed her finger and it bore an engagement ring the size of my big toe!
She’s a sweet girl. You know the type: bottle blonde with lowlights, pink cardigan, pink lipstick, pearls. But this boy has been rocking my world and I am not in love with him. He played the whole thing off like a champ and I don’t want to give up my inter-office quickies, my in-the-loo shags at a certain restaurant and a FREE tan on the beach. What say you?
Twisted in Denver
SCOTT: Twisted is right. You consider yourself her friend and you’re “shagging” her boyfriend? Classy! Remind me to pursue a friendship with you.
If you didn’t know he was her boyfriend before you got involved which is not easy to believe then you should’ve broken it off when you found out he was with her. So do it now. Break it off with him and try to focus on what’s wrong with you.
Like I really need to tell you this, but I will anyway: in friendships and love relationships, there are lines you don’t cross. This is one of them.
