| 0:00.0 | This is an I-Heart podcast. Guaranteed Human. I'm engaged, but my best friend just told me he loves me. What should I do? This is OKOP, home of the craziest true stories on earth. I'm Sophia and Riley. What do you do when your best friend rushes in and yells, I object at your wedding? You got to pick. You got to be on the spot. |
| 0:21.1 | Yeah. |
| 0:21.6 | Who gives you the most laughter? Mm-hmm. It makes you feel safe. Mm-hmm. The best friend's not cutting it. That's an awkward conversation. We just watched the notebook and I feel like that. Yo, that's a good point. I mean, I guess they were best friends. This is giving me made of honor type of. Oh, interesting conspiracy. |
| 0:38.9 | Well, let's find out what's going on. |
| 0:40.7 | So Honeybee, 1, 2, 3, 3, 2, 2, 2.1 says, I know that this sub has a huge issue with large age gaps. So I would like to point out that the age gap between my fiance and I is not the center of this post. And I would appreciate it if you kept your opinions about that to yourselves. What? I'm interested what this age gap is. Well, we're about to find out, but you've got to |
| 0:59.0 | keep your opinions to yourselves. Okay. I won't say anything about the age gap. We won't say anything. |
| 1:04.4 | Now, some backstory, I met my best friend Trevor, 39 male, and my fiance, Burke, 44 male, |
| 1:10.0 | almost five years ago when I was 22. |
| 1:12.1 | Now 27 female and they were 40 and 34. |
| 1:15.6 | Okay. |
| 1:16.2 | We can do math though. |
| 1:17.8 | Well, we know. |
| 1:18.8 | We're just doing math. |
| 1:19.7 | We're not making any assumptions. |
| 1:20.8 | We're just repeating. |
| 1:22.1 | O.P. was 22 when they met their best friend who was 40. |
| 1:25.7 | No, sorry. |
| 1:26.8 | When they met their fiancee, he was 40 and their best friend who was 40. No, sorry. When they met their fiance, he was 40 and |
| 1:28.9 | their best friend who was 34. They are now 27. That's 20. That's 18 years and 12 years. |
| 1:35.9 | Anyway, they both work together and for privacy purposes, I'm keeping their occupation a secret. |
| 1:40.9 | But I met Burke first and we became good friends and then I met Trevor next. I was immediately infatuated with Trevor. Him and I spoke quite a bit. We went out on a few dates. And I thought he felt the same way about me. But one day he dropped a bomb on me where he basically told me he never felt anything for me other than friendship and doesn't want to lead me on anymore. I played it cool and pretended that I too only wanted friendship. he laughed and said, great, glad we're on the same page. Okay. So, so he friends owned her and now maybe is coming back. I have my thoughts on this. Okay, we'll get back to it. Save those thoughts. I was bitter and spiteful at first, but eventually I got over it and Trevor and I became best friends. And instead of avoiding him and cutting him out, my pride got in the way and I didn't want to appear butt hurt, so I carried on like nothing happened. I have zero feelings for Trevor now. We're much better off being friends than lovers anyway. Before I only ever saw Burke when he was at work, him and I had a running joke where I owed him a date. He gave me a lift home one day because it was raining. |
| 2:35.3 | And he said, now you owe me dinner. |
