The 3rd Wheel

Its great being in a relationship. Nothing better than having someone there looking out for you. Believe me i know. M is just the best :p He listens when im rambling on, looks at me like im mad when im going crazy, and cheers me up when im down - and for that i wil be eternally greatful :)
But then someone else comes on the scene. A friend. But only known to your partner. And so the you start talking to that other person through your other half. Getting to know each other. Teasing the person in the middle. Becoming friends. Eventually you and your new friendbecome close, but you still dont know each other. The 2 of you still teasing the person in the middle. You are able to tell each other what that person is like at different times.
And then something happens that gives the opportunity for all 3 of you to be together at the same time. And you would be mad not to take it. And so you go. Anticipating the meeting with the unknown, with only what you have learned about them in the past couple of weeks to go on.
Then it happens. You are suddenly together. The 3 of you in one place. But of course there are no introductions because you know this person. You may not have met them before but you know them. And deep down you know you do.
Through the day you and your new friend talk. You smile. You laugh. You have a good time. Then your partner appears and wants to know why you are laughing and so you laugh even more and get strange looks off your partner. But they know that you are ok, and that you are having a good time. Throughout the day, as you and your friend carry on talking and laughing, your partner starts to get worried that you are talking about them, and no matter how much they want to know, they will not ask you what it was you were talking about. Because it is your conversation and they respect your privacy and know that you would never do anything to hurt or upset them.

This happens to lots of people. But to me this is specific to 3 people. A, M and myself. And to the day we spent at the track.
A is the great friend i first met yesterday through M and we got on brilliantly and i hope we will always be friends.
M is that person in the middle, the one who got me and A together. But he means so much more to me than i can say. And i know he will read this, and i hope this lets him know a fraction of how i really feel for him.


Thanks guys for everything :)
