Exactly. If she had said, after I said that I DID have feelings for him, that she wouldn't go out with him, and, he turned around and started trying to hit on me, I'd turn him down. But, we did go out for a couple weeks. I mean, on a few dates, hung out a lot. But, yeah, I would think that, even if she didn't turn him down on grounds of us being friends, that she would turn him down because he and I went out first and NOW he's going after her. I'd have a problem being second, too. Oh, well. At this point, I'm not stressing anymore. I'll just deal with it one day at a time. I know it'll be weird the first time she and I see eachother, but, I'll survive.
