Hello all please I need your opinion on something that is bothering me because I’m really thinking of giving this a chance but before I do hear my story
I stay with my friend, we are roommates. She has this boyfriend who is a very good guy.
Her boyfriend takes care of her very well, he sends her money, buys her things, checks up on her, comes around often… the kind of guy every girl wants to have as a boyfriend
But the way she treats him is something else.
She talks to him anyhow, ignores him when she likes, and behaves like everything he does is not enough. Meanwhile, I know she has cheated on him twice. I’m not guessing, I mean I know. And she still acts like she’s the one doing him a favor in that relationship.
To be honest, it has been bothering me for a while, especially when I see how serious the guy is.
I even thought of telling him at some point, but I didn’t want to put myself in trouble where I’m living.
Then something happened recently that I didn’t expect at all
My friend travelled home to go and visit her parents then her boyfriend came to the house, l was even surprised. I asked him if he didn’t know she travelled but he said he was aware but he came to see me .
I was already uncomfortable, but then he told me he knows everything. He said someone told him and he also confirmed it himself. According to him, he is done with her and doesn’t want anything to do with her again.
I thought that was all, but he now said something else.
He told me he has been noticing me for a while, the way I carry myself and how different I am from her. Then he asked if I would be open to dating him.
I didn’t even know what to say.
The truth is, I like him too. I won’t lie. But I never allowed myself to think in that direction because he was with my friend.
Now everything has changed suddenly.
I feel like it’s somehow wrong to go for my roommate’s ex, but at the same time she didn’t treat him well at all and even cheated. I also keep thinking what if I miss a good person because I’m trying to be loyal to someone who wasn’t even loyal herself.
Another thing is, I don’t know if this is just him reacting out of anger or if he really means it.
I haven’t given him any answer yet, I told him I will let him know in a week’s time.
Please, I need honest advice. Should I give him a chance ? Would I be a terrible person if I do ?
