Before I regale you with this tale of redemption let me preface by saying anything we we want to attain on this earth is possible.
Me: 6’1, 7.5″, 170lbs Indian
Her: 5’4, toned, mixed-asian
We were friends since the second grade, families knew each other, went to the same schools and got into college together.
Leilani and I were friends but it was more a familial obligation rather than out of our own vested interests. In school I had a mid girlfriend while she dated the captain of the swim team. I honestly didn’t think of her being attainable and in my head looked at her as an ornament that ‘would be nice to have’.
Moving onto college, we moved in with our families and hardly saw each other: barely 6-7 times over the next 4 semesters
Freshman year: She joined the hottest sorority while I starting smoking a lot of weed and focussing on my academics (rigorous university).
Fast forward to this September: Leilani found a mixed – asian boyfriend who was 6’2 and seemed super happy with her relationship.
Throughout the next three months I kept seeing her post him on her story and it angered me and I questioned why she wasn’t mine but someone else’s when I had known her for longer, been friends with her longer and tbh probably cared about her longer
