Some background info, I am 25 M and i was at a small party of my best friend about 2 weeks ago. He has a girlfriend who I got to know over the years we are just semi friends if that makes sense I invite her to my parties she invites me to hers but that is basically our entire text convo.
So i was at this party started talking to a girl named Sarah (not her real name). She was alone at the party and she was a close friend of my best friends girlfriend. So nothing really happened at the party we just talked and we clicked REALLY WELL and I got her insta and number.
So we started chatting and hit it off even more and after a week or so I asked her if she wanted to get a drink sometime? She agreed so the next day in the afternoon we went out. At this point I haven’t asked if she is in a relationship neither has she mentioned anything to me that she is in one.
So the day arrives I ask her if she needs a pickup she says “no i have someone taking me there”. So i go out with her make some smooth jokes she grabs my hand and stuff. So after drinking and having lunch for an hour and a half I had to go because I had a appointment for work. So we walk to the place where she would be picked up.
This is where the beginning of the screw up happens and I should’ve seen the signs. So we walk back she holds my hand and drags me into a side alley where we make out for about 5 mins. So some information the alley connects to the parking lot but it’s at an angle so you can not look into the alley from the parking lot if that makes sense. So I tell her “I need to go shall I walk with u to ur lift?”
Sarah: “No No No hurry to your car and go to work I had a great time with you (with a smile)”
Later she text me if i wanna do something later in the week i invite her over to my place for dinner and we did it with each other. After I ask her if she needs a ride home she tells me no someone is picking me up. I let her go and she tells me her lift is waiting around the corner, and then we make out and she leaves. So me being someone who hasn’t had a girlfriend in 5 years tells my best friend about this when I went over to his place
He grabs me by my arm and tells me no you know she has a boyfriend who she’s been with for 3 years. At this point my heart rate starts raising and my friend can see my shock. So I explained everything to him show him the texts.
His girlfriend, who was also with us then told us Sarah recently has been talking to her about breaking up with her boyfriend of 3 years since a couple of days.
I am someone who would never EVER cheat on someone or with someone so I feel AWFUL AND HEARTBROKEN. But this is not where it stops because I felt so much anger and guilt towards Sarah.
I walk outside of the room where my best friend and his girlfriend are and tell them I am calling her. They try to stop me but I proceeded and went outside and call her.
She picks up the phone and tells me wait let me get some where more private so I know her boyfriend is there. I tell her everything she starts crying and blaming it on me that I never asked if she was in a relationship which is ridiculous after some time talking we calm down and talk about it
She then tells me she wants to break up with her boyfriend and be with me. My heart RAISES to the moon and i don’t know what to do I tell her PLEASE SARAH DON’T and start yelling it over the phone. My friend and his girlfriend come in and see me hang up the phone.
She still texts me and tells me that she is sorry and she really likes me and she doesn’t know what to do and still ASKS ME IF SHE NEEDS TO BREAK UP HER BOYFRIEND.
After this, my friend also told me it was probably her BOYFRIEND WHO DROPPED HER OFF ON BOTH OF HER DATES WITH ME! because she doesn’t have a driver’s license.
Which explains why she didn’t want me to take her to the car.
