Wow. I have drama in my life. Of the romantic kind. Who would have thought? Oh, Flist, I need your advice, because I am so out of the game I am confused! [Poll #1420072]
Boy 1 is a user. He wants all the benefits with none of the commitment. He will drop you whenever it isn't convenient for HIM.
Boy 2 is actually showing some respect and interest in YOU.
Now Boy 2 is on the scene, Boy 1 is getting possessive because he is losing the 'good thing he has going at no cost to himself'. If you dropped Boy 2 then Boy 1 will just revert to using you again.
So... I think you would be wise to give Boy 2 a chance.
I think you're 100% right. Boy 2 was very sweet and respectful today, and it was a very fun date. We're going out again next week. My only lingering worry is that I don't want to hurt Boy 1, even if he is being stupid at the moment.
