Hi everybody
I have a slight problem and I was wondering if you guys and gals could help me.
The predominant bothering on my head is how to handle this situation;-
I’m madly in love with a friend who satisfies everything I look for in a partner. However, said friend is currently in a relationship with the love of her life.
Right now, I’m thinking I should let it go but at the same time, watch and wait.
The Unfortunate-accident-happening-to-her-beau situation has crossed my mind but I’d like to think that I’m not that sociopathic just yet.
That said, the beau is called Kenny and if I killed him whilst she was present then I’d be able to say ”Oh my god, I killed Kenny” to which she’d reply ”You b*****d<br>!” and we would laugh at the funny South Park quote and end up giggling and cuddling in a nice mutual appreciation gig.
But since the latter sequence would result in me being incarcerated thus, unable to hold a sustaining relationship, I’m going to need a better idea.
Any astute suggestion would be welcomed.

A tricky but familiar situation.
As I remember, the correct procedure in such circumstances is to allow the girl you love to prey on your mind until you can’t sleep, eat or talk about anything and all the life is slowly sucked from you over a period of several years and every relationship you ever have for the rest of your life is a pale imitation of the one you never had.
Or so I’ve heard
By the way, the boyfriends always seem to have comedy names, although in this particular case, he’s chosen Kenny rather than Ken or Kenneth, so, if you think about it, he’s actually asking to be dispatched in a South Park manner.
And make sure you write it all down. You might be heartbroken, but at least you can get a decent play/two-part drama out of it later on.
Hope this helps
I don’t think murder is the way forward, however tempting it might be. ;)
Unfortunately I wouldn’t know what to do – apart from wait on the sidelines like a total idiot. I don’t suggest telling the girl in question what you feel either, as it could mess the situation up slightly.
To be honest I’m looking for wise words on this subject as I too am in love with a friend of mine, although the difference is he’s single and he knows about it, but the situation is about as clear as ditchwater.
If all else fails you’ll probably have to start looking elsewhere – not pleasant at first. Dwelling on something that is unlikely is not good…but it’s up to you to see how "unlikely" the situation is. :(
I’d echo Aranalde’s sentiments entirely. There’s also the possibility of not letting on for a second how you really feel and wait for Kenny to shuffle of this mortal coil in his own sweet time (say, around 2066), and only then reveal your true devotion. Chances are she’ll be impressed with your patience and virtue and you can live happily ever after (until circa 2071).
Jeez, it’s crystal clear.
Forget about it.
If he’s right for her, it’ll work out. If he isn’t, it probably won’t.
Go out and enjoy your life. Have some fun. Sleep with other girls (not her friends, though).
If she becomes single again and you’re not with someone serious, it’s game on again.

I believe that a new government initiative should put an end to all this angst. From 2007, every February 20th is to be designated "sleep with a platonic friend day", where everyone will be obligated to make the beast with two backs with whichever friend can book them first. I’ve got a little list already…..
Rory
That’s a terrible idea.
If you ever manage to get it introduced, I hope the first friend that books a go on you is a guy….. :biggrin:
Steve
To (greatly) paraphrase Dan Akroyd from the movie Dragnet:
"Relationships are s**t
. Give them up by not taking them up. EVER"."He didn’t say that exactly but he bloody should have, because it’s true.
There endeth my input. I wish you luck Kotki, because frankly it’s the only thing that can help you now.
Kotkijet.
You have my sympathies.

If you feel the need to talk.
I’ll always be there for you!
Lollys mate. XXX
murder seems a little extreme.
why not buy a pay-as-you-go mobile phone, and send kenny some explicit ‘Loos-esque’ texts? then simply mention to your friend that you think (or had heard) that kenny was a low-life sh@gger and bingo! works every time…
alternatively, as previously alluded to, use the situation to your advantage. are you a bit podgy? if you stew on things and wait until you are completely sick and obsessed, you’ll have hardly any appetite and the pounds of flab will simply drop off…
Here everyone.
Koky hasnt replied to this post yet.
Does this mean he has done the Kill Kenny thing and got caught? Or has he gained sucsess and is "doing his thang" as we speak?

I’m ashamed with your response…..<br> You of all people should know better!
Go away and analise your crime.
Hi everybody
Thanks for the advise / sympathy / mocking.
I deliberately left my response for a few days in the hope that the situation would make itself clearer and it has.
To start with, I chose the get blind drunk, get laid, get over it approach. Now do you know that silly face Richard Johnson pulls everytime he jumps a fence? I pull that face everytime I cringe, thinking about where that approach got me. Lesson learned I suppose.
Things took a turn for the better on Tuesday when I started college. Now the first thought that came across me when I strolled into college was ”Ewwwww! Look at all those students! However, seconds later, I realised I couldn’t turn without getting an eyeful of a pretty lady. Even better, they’re all legal!
Needless to say, after spending a few seconds there, it’s easy to forget about whatshername.
Anyways, to answer the questions posed to me on this entertaining thread:-
Since she seems blissfully happy already, why should or would any one or thing be interested in you?
I’m afraid I’m going to answer this with a question. Why would anybody be interested in anybody? Everybody has certain attributes which other people may or may not find alluring. Being a very humble person myself, I couldn’t possibly imagine what it is that has made people come onto me recently (it does happen!). Perhaps it’s my humility.
Are you tall/athletic/attractive?<br>Are you able to financially provide, if the relationship develops?
I’m 5’11” / used to be very athletic / beauty is in the eye of the beholder. I’m trying to be a nihilist thus, long term obligations and money are obsolete. Perhaps it’s not a mature outlook on life but I’m a new school 21 year old and I wouldn’t expect myself to be taking life too seriously just yet.
Why should anyone’s life be affected by you?
Since I’m not a sociopath, I think Kennys life is in safe hands. (Unless these voodoo dolls actually work!)
are you a bit podgy?
You’ll never meet a podgy vegan drug user.
Why not get together with Meshaheer? – at first, I wasn’t going to dignify that with a response but I’ve had a change of heart.
The racehorse? Oh, the TRF regular! Could this be the hand of destiny coming down to earth, guiding us all into our slots of the world? Seriously, it makes sense when you think about it.
I have fond memories of my few visits to Cornwall
Meshaheer agreed with one of my posts for the first time ever on the 8th – nearly 3 years in the making!.
Refering to the OMG – I killed Kenny thing, Kennys second name was McCORMACK
I once had a crush on a guy called Cormack.
Sounds great huh? But that’s where the realism kicks in. For a relationship to work between me and the firestarter, she must be willing to do the following.
Move to within 10 miles of Manchester.
Become a vegetarian at the very least.
Accept that horse racing is a cruel and barbaric sport promoted solely for the bourgeois.
Learn how to launch bricks at multinational retail outlets.
Withstand the painful embarrassment that comes with watching her would-be beau dance gracefully to Gary Numan songs whilst messed up on acid.
The ball’s in her court now :biggrin:
Cheers everybody
Thank you for those clear bullet points Kotki :)
Unfortunately I feel right now I’m unable to meet your demands of becoming vegetarian. I’ve eaten meat twice already today, and I haven’t got round to making dinner yet!
Manchester – a bit far away from Exeter for my liking, and more northerly so a bit too cold in the winter.
Launching bricks at multinational retail outlets also isn’t my thing – using them is closer to the mark!
And horse racing cruel?…Don’t get me started ;)
Apart from those minor hiccups, we must be a match made in heaven! I can hear the ding dong of cyber wedding bells already…
Koki
Skys initial veiw regarding your problem<br> The question really was<br>You really want this girl to remove her underclothes in an intimate moment with you
What do you have to offer ….<br>Your skint<br>your a bulls**t
ter<br>your CV consists of a thousand professions ..which you were were good at none of them , not that you done any of them :biggrin: <br>your a spotty kid with all of the answers without the experienceYour plus points………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………
Why would this angel even look at you
A warning to the fellow students of Koki , watch out this geek is leering over your girlfriends :o
A definate insight into your moral fibre that you feel your friends girlfriend is fair game :angry:
<br>Best keep on the 5 a day hand shandy my son <br> Sky<br>
Hi Grasshopper
I’d have you struck off!!!
Hi Razeen
You know I’m not that shallow. Getting to do her was around fifth, sixth on my list of priorities.
I am skint and I’d have a problem with any girl who had a problem with that.
Whilst I’m a bulls**t
ter, I only ever lie to myself because I’m very gullible – I enjoy the abuse so much I wouldn’t want to share my bulls**t
ting with anybody else.My CV is pretty s**t
but the best way I could justify that would be to quote a former boss in a credit sales agency ”Simon, you could go to the top here if you wanted to but you’re a ******* narky little tw*t”. Personally I thought I was a very credible journalist / jockey interviewer guy – it’s just a shame security at Bangor & Hereford didn’t see it that way.Funny you should call me spotty because since I was 11, a spot has very rarely crossed my face. Though when I started college last week, this ”Student Zit” popped up on my jaw.
How would you know the girl is an angel? For all you know, I could have a fetish for hairy pitted, shaven headded sociopaths.
I’m not leering over the girls at my college, I just enjoy beautiful sceneries. The Yorkshire Moors are beautiful to look at – that’s not to say I want to fornicate them!
Nice to see that you’ve been paying attention, only Kenny is NOT my friend. As a matter of fact, I’ve never even met Kenny. Therefore, I don’t view my friends girlfriends as fair game.
A par, if not very well researched dis.
Hi Mesh
One cyber step at a time now! <br>Whilst they do say that opposites attract, I’m not sure if that applies to, well….. us!
I tell you what, I’ll make a compromise. Though I’m totally opposed to marriage (being a nihilist and all) I am willing to have a cyber boy & girl affinity thing with you. You know, to keep in practise – just in case either of us stumble upon a real relationship. I just hope you’re not a dependant type.
