See, I actually don't see you as some dude whose mission is to infiltrate girls who are taken and destroy their relationships, however, you are still doing it regardless. I see you as an enormous asshat because you know what you are doing is morally wrong and yet continue to do what you're doing.
there are so many things that are "morally wrong" that we do as human beings. underage drinking, drugs, stealing, lying, the list goes on. yeah, i know what i'm doing is wrong. but she did (yes i use past tense, see below) it too. so it's not all my fault. and it's not like i'm jon and i'm an emotionless robot.

Regardless of what you think -whether you think that they'd be happier with you, or them (how you can even judge for a person and what they believe is beyond me, but...)- the situation is clear in that you have no business in messing around with girls who have boyfriends. You're already a bad person just out of this (and fuck if I know if you kick puppies, steal from babies or some other bad shit that we don't know about you) but how are girls going to be better off with someone who thinks the way you do?
i know they'd be happier with me simply by the fact that i'm not x miles away. it's not my fucking fault that i meet these girls. i don't pray every night saying "oh God please just let me meet more girls who strike me and who i hit it off really well with who also are really taken (but it can only be long distance)." that part of the equation isn't my fault.
you still make it seem like i'm some relationship-predator, even if you deny it, because you label me as a bad person because i develop feelings for people. there's so much more to being some "bad person" than just liking a girl. and just because you don't fuck around with long distance relationships, that doesn't make you a good person, either.

"All is fair in love and war" is something that I more or less live by.
If I meet some girl that I truly think that I could fall in love with, and she has a boyfriend, I think it is more unfair to myself to hold those feelings in that it is to the guy that she is dating. And I'm looking out for number 1 at all times.
However, the way I see it, this is very different in long distance relationships. I would NOT fuck with that. Girls get lonely and horny just as much as dudes do, and they're gonna have skewed perspectives on how they feel about someone if they are far away from them. There is no such thing as "I think this girl would be happier with me" if it's a long distance thing. No one is ever nearly as happy when they're far away from the person they love. Stupid arguments pop up, people get mad over things they wouldn't normally get mad about, jealousy is abundant, and, in my opinion, it's just plain unhealthy to begin with. When you're not with the person you love, it opens up time to meet other people, and grow attachments to the opposite sex that would probably not have ever happened had you been in the same town with this person.
I could go on and on about this saying the exact same thing, but I'm gonna stop rambling. I see both sides of the equation and it's hard to find out who is right. Follow your heart, but use your head and don't be a fucking douchebag.
see now you make a much better argument and open my eyes up to something i never actually saw before. i guess i'd have to agree with what you say...the whole "skewed perspectives" thing. i should've figured that shit out the moment he surprised her.
the thing is with homewreckgirl b, her boyfriend and her were on the rocks before i ever met her. so would it be right to develop feelings for her (well it's kind of already too late for that), and just hang out and get to know her better but not actually do anything other than make friends? i mean, i see no harm in that, and she's been talking about breaking up with her boyfriend anyway. it's just now i see this whole skewed perspectives thing and yeah. i don't want to be "that inbetween guy". i don't know, it's too early to tell anything.
either way, it's done with the first girl. like, i should've stopped maybe five pages ago (yes, this thread is a measure of time), and i was pretty well over her until she decided to kiss me, but i think that was good closure to everything. it's good to know that i make her happy (oh, and this isn't confidence, this is her saying "you're what makes this shithole inhabitable") and we'll probably hang out (much less) and stay friends because she makes me happy too.
i guess a big problem in this whole thing is that i have this problem. um, i guess i'd call it "drama queen syndrome." i fall really, really, REALLY hard for a girl, but when i have her, it fades quickly. but if she keeps toying with me and keeps me guessing, well it just gets worse and worse and i like her more and more. and i don't know if it's still around because i haven't really had to chance to test it out because i've pretty much been slutting myself off this past year. it's something that's prevented longer relationships. but i may have outgrown it.
after this whole fucking incident, i think that "girls are dumb" is something that i more or less live by.
