There’s this new girl I started talking to recently at one of my social clubs. I’m about 85% sure she likes me, but it’s hard to pursue because this 5’4 manlet follows her around like a lost puppy. Every time we finally get isolated this dude comes up and it’s embarrassing. And I don’t like the look it gives off with 2 guys going for one girl so I’ve fallen back, but now she’s pursuing me harder. I've even been on dates with her and this guy would know and text her weird shit during it. Honestly typing this as a rant and maybe advice to other men. If she’s flirting with other guys in front of you and telling you about dates she’s on don’t follow her like a lost puppy YOU'RE FRIEND ZONED. Gives off extreme levels of desperation.
