This one is for you, Brain...
So, BGF has a girlfriend...yippeee! He's happy, he's smiling, he's excited, he could (finally) be thinking long term...he has also yet to tell her about what I once called his "only baggage"- me.
Not me exactly, because not only has he introduced us (me being his "oldest and dearest friend" or something along those lines), but we hung out at Jamie's birthday party, and now we are even- gasp- facebook friends.
Being that I am a girl...here's the thing...we've known each other since we were 16. We've been best friends for almost 20 years. Oh, and during the first part of that 20 years, we were dating and engaged. But that was a LONG time ago. And now we just like to hang out and make fun of each other, although some of us are better at it than others (I win that one, Tom Collins). But, we hang out alot, and we talk alot. Seriously the only person I talk to more than I talk to him is my mom. As a girl, I think he needs to tell his new gf this information. Because if he doesn't, it's like an awkward secret.
I KNOW it's only because his last gf hated (ok, ok, I hear you saying she didn't hate) me that he is afraid to tell her. I get it. But already I can see that this girl is way different than the last one. I am afraid that the longer he waits, the more of an issue it will become when he tells her...and the last thing I want is for it to be an issue...because he and his happiness are very important to me. Also because I like to nap on his couch and eat Brandon's bbq.
So, BGF...tell her like it's the non-issue that it is...and if you do, I promise not to introduce her to Jordan Knight, haha ;)
