maleficent

My best friends girlfriends. Had absolutely no use for her and she was not even close to being good enough for him.

Tom was a great guy, really kind heart especially for stray puppy dogs, and that's what most of the women he ended up with were. I never quite got it either, Tom was really good looking, intelligent, athletic, great sense of humor, but when it came to women, he seemed to be attracted to those with lots of emotional baggage or just plain issues.

Usually that baggage came bubbling up in the relationship and he ended up being the one getting hurt and not really quite understanding what had happened. He was definitely the anti-maleficent. As cynical as I am towards people, he was the opposite, he saw good in these people... but when he was sitting there with his heart in his hands... he realized the truth about these women.

Thru it all though, I never once abandonded my friend, friends don't do that. I sucked it up thru many dinners and other events with these women, knowing what was going to happen at the end. He was an adult, he made his choices, but in the end he still needed me as his friend, and no matter what choices he made, I wasn't going to let him down.

I would give my right lung to have him back.
