Moving on from that red flag, i& #39;m friends with another one who has been with his partner for years. We first met at a launch event at salesforce where my colleague introduced us to one another.

I had to leave so I hugged him and he said "Oh wow you give great hugs!" Score!
I didn& #39;t get to see him physically until I saw him queuing up for the clinic. I was bringing over my hazelnut milk tea with herbal jelly and he flipped when I told him my drink - he likes the EXACT same drink too! We clicked even further.
After he was done I walked him out and had a HTHT - he opened up about his newfound bisexuality while I opened up about my condition.

He asked "Are you flirting with me?" To which I replied immediately "Yes". He laughed as he appreciates my honesty and we made out. SCORE!
We exchanged numbers, flirted more, and arranged our first "date". I& #39;ve been stalking his social media for a while and I saw that he& #39;s attached. I probed about his love life, learning how he and his partner met and how they& #39;ve been anchors for each other. Damn sweet la pls!
Surprisingly, I was ok. I like what I have now with him and he does too. He was saying how we would have been an item if he had not met his current bf to which I retorted;

We would have been two very different people than who we are right now so I& #39;d rather us to be this way.
We keep in contact once in a while (because boundaries). My happiness for him is to see him grow and be a better version of himself every time we meet. It doesn& #39;t matter if he& #39;s not mine; maybe some time in the future.

For now I want to be like how Tomoyo is to Sakura - his #2.
I want to be there for him when I can. I want to see him smile when we are together again. All from a distance.

I think I might have discovered what love is from all this.
