This isn't the funny pictures thread.
It sure is making me laugh.
Anyways, one of my friends, who has been dating another friend of mine has begun dating someone else since their relationship is on hold for college as they're going to be apart. She's known the guy about a week and so far it's been making out and general touching, but nothing sexual until a per-determined time later. It seems to me that this is going too fast, especially since the guy she's macking on seems lonely and wants her because he doesn't have "other options" and is creeping her out by "expecting" too much even though she's still technically with my other friend. It seems like she wants the guy for the physical part of the relationship when he wants her for both, and while he accepts that my friend is still in the picture, it's like he thinks maybe the physical connection will be enough to have her break it off.
Also, both of my friends are uncomfortable with dating outside of their relationship and are only agreeing to do it because they think it'll free the other to do what they want and not have to worry about them, and the reason she's all over this guy is so my friend doesn't have to worry about her being lonely.
IDK, from my perspective this all seems pretty stupid. She's fooling around with the guy within a month of being away from home because she wants to let her BF know that she's fine, and she's freaked out by him wanting something more, but doesn't want to say anything that will drive him away because he fills her physical needs, which she's willing to give up/rein in if her BF would just tell her that this is freaking her out because he feels like he gets replaced the instant she goes off to college, but he's afraid of upsetting her.
