I'll Keep Your Secret

I talked to her again today. She talked about her boyfriend.
It tears me apart.
I can't tell her about my feelings for her; it would confuse her and she doesn't need that in her life. She already has too much going, which is why she's confiding in me. I provide her emotional refuge.
Whenever she talks about him I get choked up inside; I have to take short breaths in order to keep it together. She needs someone who will listen to her and I'm happy it's me. It's the only way I get to be near her.
Eventually she won't need me anymore; after all she has him.
I hate this but I have to do this for her.

I will. This cannot continue. She has her life and she'll have it with him. I still have my life. I'll just have to keep this lesson near to me. It'll be fine. It'll take a little time, and that's okay. I'll busy myself with my ongoing projects and before long this will all be a distant memory.
It's as simple as that.

That's entirely possible, but she needs emotional support. She doesn't need any more weight to the load she's carrying. She turned to me as a friend; I can't turn her away. I realize and accept I may be too nice but I cannot do this to her. I have to do this for her.
Thank you.

You sir are the personification of nice guys. I relate very well to what you are going through. I just wish more girls would go for "nice" guys like yourself than the bad guys. Afterall it is the nice guys of this world who ultimately provide emotional support for all the hurt girls out there... Who will provide that for the guys ? Some thing to ponder... :-/

She's lucky to have such a great friend. I hope she realizes that.

@graessparrow - thank you for your kind words. Right now she can't see much of anything because of her sheer neediness for something/someone sturdy in her life. She is both tough and tender and right now she's fragile.
Again thank you.

You should tell her how you feel , if she was your true friend and she cares for you - she wouldn't want you to feel that way.

I did and it didn't end well. If you want to find out what happened you'll see the story. But if you want I can simply tell you.

@Pixydust: I broke down and confessed my feelings to her about her.
Even though this happened five months ago I can still see her face. It was as though I had killed her pet or burned her house down. Her lower lip was quivering as she kept saying "please don't do this to me"
I felt - still do - like a monster. A greedy self serving monster.

Thanks for listening.

Thank you Malia. I'm very flattered by that.
However as you can tell I'm just a guy.
But thank you again.
