>>177404241She did not even say she fucking say she loved him, she clearly just needed someone who cared for her because she did not get it in that shit hole. OP starts getting defensive even though she never says they are more than friends. He starts getting defensive of someone he is not even dating and his friend tells him to date her; he does not date her and so her friend shows her the attention she wants. She goes through all that without breaking up with the other guy and suddenly says she loves him.
For fuck sakes this is the same shit as Forrest Gump except without the bench
