My hubby's best friends is confusing the heck out of me and all my friends.... he is going through a divorce and is always at my house. This friend, I'll call him Joe, was the best man in my wedding. Up until a few months ago we were polite to each other, but indifferent. We lived next door to each other from the time I was 4 until 14, he was the boy that threw the rocks at the girls and chased us on our bikes. He was hell to live by, for that reason.
Joe started coming to see hubby and I starting in February-on a daily basis. Joe and I talk at least once daily on the phone, and go out to lunch about once to twice a week. (yes, hubby knows-not an issue).
Joe met a girl in a bar and the two have been talking on the phone, she lives about 3 hours away from all of us. She asked if he had females friends--he said yes, and told her about me. She met my husband when Joe and hubby we out one night. He told he that when his wife kicked him out, it was my advice he took. He says he listened to no one but me. According to Joe he told the girl that he and I have known each other too long and are now too good of friends to let "some woman" object to the friendship. He told me that "no matter what happens you will always be a part of my life"
Joe had a date last weekend, just told me it was "some chic" and gave me no details. Last night we all went out (16 of us) for my bday. This girl he is talking to drive down 3 hours to meet me and see him. I found out the "chic" from last weekend was her. I asked why he didn't say anything--he tells me everything anyway. He told me "I just decided not to say it was her" It is very obvious he is falling for this girl, she was very sweet, polite and cute--she'd be a good catch. But he tells me he is scared.
He keeps telling me that "nothing will come between me and him-we are too good of friends" "i will tell you everything--you will be the first to know" etc, etc, etc.....
But yes he doesn't tell me about this woman--he accidentally mentioned the about of time he was talking to the woman (54hrs on his cell in 3 week
)
All my girlfriends that hear him talk to me, and then see the way he is hestitant to talk to me about her are swearing to me that he has feelings for me--- but since hubby and him are best friends (since they were about 14) he knows not to go there---but the reason, according to them, he won;t talk to about her is he doesn't want me to get jealous--he baffles me...
And yes i am sure I am rambling and unclear-- so I apologize. But from my ramblings--what is going thru this guys mind!
thanks all.
