Ok, I guess I should start at the beginning.....I've known both of these guys since I was a tiny kid, we've been friends all of our lives. (However they don't know each other.)
So last year, April 05, I bump into the younger of the two (Who is still 3 years older than me), John-Mark at the hospital when his Uncle was dying from Bone Cancer. At the funeral home after his uncle has passed away his mom told my mom all that he'd said in the car on the way home about how "beautiful" he thought I was....blah blah blah. Somewhere I muscle up the courage to him my number and we were together, pretty seriously (not physical or anything like that, just really seriously in love with each other), for about 3 months afterwards. Then he goes off to this thing for school (HS) for the remainder of the summer (5 weeks) and about a week into it, he leaves me. It took me a year, and the other guy, to get "over him."
The other guy, Isaac, is 5 years my senior and is the son of the pastor of my church (who has been the pastor three times before!) (P.S. he's also a preacher himself). I developed a crush on him when I was 11 and for the past 6 years he's been everything for me. Even when I was dating John-Mark, Isaac was always in the back of my head even though we weren't close anymore.
Now that Isaac's dad is back as our pastor, things are "heating up" between Isaac and myself. Body Language says any day now he's gonna do something, but....I'm still a lil nervous that I'm just jumping to what I want and not to what's really happening.
But then there is the bane of my existance, her name is Amy. She also goes to church with me and Isaac and goes to college with John-Mark. A couple of weeks ago, John-Mark's church was doing something that he didn't want to attend so he came to ours. This throws me into a tail spin because, in spite of myself, I still really like him. I'll admit it. I'm not in love with him anymore. I cried too violently for too long over him to still love him. But Isaac....oh God in Heaven, Isaac.
Anyway, this Amy chick-a-dee whatever has the hots for Isaac big time. She attends church functions that she never has before because she thinks he'll be there. Wednesday night services (she only did it once and when he wasn't there, she never came back), Christmas Caroling (I should have slapped her), Church picnics and church suppers.....she is a strictly Sunday Morning person....now she's making the effort at Sunday School, which is alright I guess but up until she laid eyes on him she didn't give a ****.
She drives me up the wall. Later that week I get on John-Mark's facebook page and see that she has left him a seductive message....sunday night. After she saw him and I together....
I know it's not the christian thing to hate a person, but she really is like quicksand. She's like some poision. She drives me up the wall mad. She sits slumped over all the time looking around me to see Isaac.
(Funny story:
In our Sunday School rooms we sit on old pews....no desks or anything, and Isaac and I sit next to each other and Little Miss Muffet sits next to me. No assigned seating, that's jus the way it falls. And one Sunday I was doing something and not paying attention to my Sunday School Book on my lap and it slides off onto the floor. Isaac sort of snickers at me, so I reach down, pick it up and playfully whack him with it. About 2 minutes later Amy leans down to look around me at Isaac and THROWS her book on the floor! THROWS IT! And then says "Whoospy." Isaac doesn't even look at her. It was funny. I almost laughed out loud.)
She's just....I've known her my whole life and I've never found anything about her I like. I'm sorry....I just don't care for her in the least degree. I've tried to be her friend but it just doesn't work.
I'm jealous because Amy is invading John-Mark and as his last girlfriend I still have dibs on the ol' boy and his next girlfriend has to be "approved by me!" (Just kidding.) I'm amazing myself that I'm jealous. Literally amazed.
And I get plain MAD when she grabs Isaac and yaks his ear off. There was one church picnic we had....me and him were talking the whole way out of the church and across the parking lot to the picnic shelter and then once we get out there she starts gabbing and he's stuck the entire meal. Her mouth never stopped running. And then when he and I finally hooked up again, she came in and SAT DOWN BETWEEN US! How rude was that?!
HELP ME HELP ME HELP ME!
