Story time, TRP. It's AF/BB, only without the "bux".

There's this girl I know, she's my best mate's sister, let's call her "M".

She's what you'd call an old fashioned girl, these days. "M" was dating her (pre) high school sweetheart for several years. She then went to college while her bf didn't and kept working the same average job and doing the same things. He didn't really progress and obviously she soon got bored of him.

In college, there was this guy in her course... Good looking, rich, smart, had a band. Her course is 80% females and many of the guys are gay, so this dude was obviously in very high demand. She was still with Mr. Stuck at this point, but her being very good looking, Mr. AF starts hitting on her. So after a while of back and forth flirting, she dumps the boyfriends and fucks the new guy. At first it's "only physical", but she soon grows attached to him while never making it clear that she wants something more serious. Guy is not interested in a LTR and she does what he says like a puppy, driving to his house to fuck and just generally being obsessed about him.

While she does this, she complains how miserable she is because she hates being someone's FWB. This goes on for several months and actually only a few people know what's going on, for the rest of the world she is "single". Inevitably, she gets more and frustrated with the situation, but keeps "trying" aka fucking the guy. For some reason, she thought they were exclusive, even though they weren't dating. Until she finds out he was fucking 2 other chicks as well. Humiliated, she still fucks him a few more times until they graduate and she ends the whole thing. Let me tell you, she was devastated - crying the whole time, hating him and herself, etc. Loads of drama.

So she sets out to find a new boyfriend. Even asks guys out, which is hilarious since she's an 8. Though she's not the clubbing type and actually knows few single (heterosexual) males, which explains it. She starts a new job aaand: enter Mr. Nice Guy.

Mr. Nice Guy works in a supermarket at age 28. No college education, lives in a crappy house, skinnyfat, no real hobbies, bald. But he offers her flowers and asks her out (ding ding ding). He's there for her, tells her how beautiful she is and how much he loves her. Keeps her entertained, all in all. Soon she's "in love" again & he's introduced to her family and friends and they're the perfect couple. The day she invited him to her sister's birthday party (when he first met friends and extended family) I noticed she was stalking Mr. AF on Facebook. Hardly surprising, I know.

She's better looking, smarter, makes more money, has a better car, etc. Dude is not even average but he's there for her, he's the perfect boyfriend, BP style. This girl is not your average modern day slut, wants a family and kids, slut shames, etc... But still: she is better than him and we know where this usually leads to. They've been together for around 10 months now, I think. I find their relationship fascinating, since the whole situation is so cliche... Thought it'd be interesting to share.

Wonder how far gratitude will take them. Probably a bit further than usual, but at the end of the day when there's no tingle...
