My friend likes a guy who may or may not like me and idk what to do
ok to make things easier, let's call my friend Dione, and the guy, Mike.
Ok so Mike likes to text me quite a bit, because we both happened to hate this particular teacher we have, and the teacher lives in his neighbourhood. We both encounter this teacher more due to ahh circumstances (it's complicated), so I didn't think much of it when he texted me this news. Subsequently whenever he'd see the teacher he'd send me a pic of him and complain how he'd have to wait and let him go first.
And because he's really chatty this leads to other conversation, and I end up having to go 'ah sry gtg study bye' AHAHA esp when I'm talking to my crush and him at the same time I'm like yep ima let the convo stall a little. I started to notice that he talked to me more at school and several other stuff, so I knew he must feel smth, but I didn't really want to pursue this speculation because I already had a crush on someone else, and Mike's a pretty nice guy, and a good friend, so I didn't want to make him feel bad.
Fast-forward a bit, my crush has been on my mind the whole time, but there's a lot of complications between us and a lot of hurdles to cross, plus playing the guessing game has been both necessary and tiring. I probably treated my crush the same way Mike treated me anyway, except for the fact that my crush did some of the same things back to me.
But I started to look at Mike a little differently and I wondered if i'd consider dating him if he asked me out. I mean, he's not perfect in every way like my crush is (I know I am blinded but idc), but he's such a... safe option, like he's genuinely so sweet and like a little puppy. (oh geez) I didn't tell anyone though, I mean I still had my crush to look at and fuss over so Mike was still like a passing thought.
Then recently my friends started teasing Dione about Mike, and it was a little jarring, I was like whaaaaa? Then a few days later my other friend told us that Dione confessed that she did like Mike, if only a little. My other friend asked Mike what he thought of her and he said he only saw her as a friend. Well, obviously, because he's too busy helping me adjust my costume hat and telling me I looked fine in an odd way when I'm having a performance.
I wish I didn't start looking at him like an option sighz, but of course I would never date him now that I know Dione likes him. And don't forget my crush, still there, looking fine, going out with me on what I look at as a double date today, (although I don't think my crush sees it that way ahaha wasn't even me who invited).
But I feel bad for Dione though, if only I could divert Mike's attention on me to her.
