A Heartwarming Story About The Power Of Forgiveness That Turns Into A Heartwarming Story About The Power Of Lack Of Forgiveness

A few weeks ago I ran into someone I hardly know but dislike a great deal.

My relationship with this person was “friendly acquaintance” until I went out of town for two or three weeks in maybe 2015 and she made an attempt to transfer the affections of my boyfriend to herself.

I’m sure she thought she was making great progress as there is something in the intensity of my boyfriend’s gaze that has made many people think he’s into them. I have bad news for everyone. It’s just his “I’m listening” face. That’s all!

He didn’t say “she’s bad, we can’t be friends with her.” He told me because he just wanted me to know. It bears mentioning that my boyfriend is not one of those guys who thinks everyone is hitting on him.

I didn’t do or say anything. I was like “nice try.” Months later, this woman behaved, right in front of me, as if she believed this transfer of affections might still be possible. There was plausible deniability but her vibe was coy and sneaky. I wasn’t worried about my partner falling in love with her or even having sex with her, although objectively she is quite attractive. It was just so rude. I attacked.
