So I'm dating this guy who has 2 sisters. One of those sisters is married, and the other is engaged. I'm starting to have some doubts about my relationship since my boyfriend isn't turning out to be everything I thought he was (he's sort of childish and self centered). Well, in the past few months his sister's fiance and I have been hanging out a lot at family functions since we're the 2 newbies. He's a really awesome guy and we have a ton of things in common. We both come from sort of strange dysfunctional homes, have 2 younger brothers, love traveling (and both have extensively), are both very book oriented and wordy, are both pretty laid-back and quiet, and have the same strange sense of humor. She's very needy, always wants to be the centre of attention, is hyperactive, isn't brilliant by any stretch of the imagination and hasn't been anywhere. To boot, I've known her for years (although was never close to her) and she's never dated a guy remotely like him. I'm no homewrecker, though, so I'm not pursuing anything, but at the last function we were talking a lot and during the board games, we kept finishing each other's sentences. Needless to say, people started to notice and I think he felt as awkward as I did. We didn't speak for the rest of the night, and he left without saying goodbye to me (which he never does). It leads me to believe that he probably feels something, too, but I'm not sure. It makes it even a little more curious when she confides in me that he's become a bit of a groomzilla since Christmas, putting his foot down about plans that they'd already talked about not doing (getting married somewhere else, etc), and generally being difficult. To me, his ideal wedding sounds perfect (small, intimate, on a tropical beach, with just family and close friends). To her, it's the antithesis of everything she wants. I feel so helpless, because it honestly feels like this man might be my soul-mate and he's due to wed my boyfriend's sister in August, and it tears me up inside that I can't do a darn thing about it.
