Am I Being Used if It's Fun?
Dear Bitter Single Guy: I'm in love with this girl. We have had sex and often made out, but now she has a boyfriend who doesn't treat her right. The other day we went to a theme park together, just us two. While in line, she looked at me and we kissed. I tell her that he doesn't do her right and she knows it. She says she loves her boyfriend but I can't see how that's possible. I'm -- Lost and Confused
Dear LAC: The Bitter Single Guy wants to give you a supportive paternal-type hug where he pats you firmly on the shoulder (pat pat pat). LAC you're hooked on someone you can't have and it's making you crazy. As hard as it seems, you need to cut the cord and not get wrapped up in this Delicate Flower.
She's certainly got it all, doesn't she? She getting consistently treated poorly by her boyfriend (at least he's consistent, eh?) and then she has you for thrills, kissing in line and for being all sexy and fun. Heck, all this girl needs is a mud bath and she may as well be having a day at the spa. Don't play the fool for this girl anymore LAC. What's her motivation to be with you when she seems to have everything she wants from you without losing Consistent Boy? Why should she buy the cow when she's getting the milk for free? (hint: you're the cow)
