What’s the reality of being the other woman?

Nothing but enjoyment of the present

Do no fret; this is not a happy ending.
I’ve become the in-between; I had have been the girlfriend and the girl-friend. And what’s worse about feeling both? You’ll realize it’s not the gender that’s going to be right or wrong but the realization when the two of yous’ moment are there. Timing …
I know right now I should feel the guilt of having an affair with a committed man. I know karma is around the corner waiting for me to stumble upon on but instead I felt happy and sad not for them but for myself for having the person I do not deserve from the beginning.
Let me travel you back at the time when we started as friends, and as time goes by he fell in love with me and I fell for him as well. Maybe because he’s funny and we do crazy things together or we have certainty that we’ll take care for each other in the mere future or we are officemates. Maybe, just maybe that is all where we started.
Sad truth?
Not all “other women” are demanding. I do not text nor call him, I know where I belong. Never be the possessive girl-friend to him because that will pull him away. He wanted me to be his companion and that’s what I also need at the time. But when from this past month of the year I eventually think throughout the times he’s going to ask me to be with him and leaving that girl I realized I wasn’t ready to commit.
I let him go.
…
He has to make up his mind if he really wants me in his life but if not, then it’s fine. You got to believe when I say if he really wants you, he’ll find a way.
