I know this guy named Tyler who I consider my big brother. I call him "Nii-chan" sometimes when I want to be playful, or even when I want to express how much I love him by calling him by his nickname: Ty.
Tyler broke up with my best friend, Ani, because he loved her and he wanted her to let school come first instead of a relationship. He wanted her to pass with flying colors, I know. Ani didn't seem to mind the break up of a nearly two-year relationship. The other problem was: me and Ani live in a different state. Ty lives one state away.
I've known Ty for about two years, and I've known Ani for three. They're both a year older than me (currently sophomores), and they've been like a family to me for the longest time. Seeing that the break up could possibly be permanent made my heart ache -- it's like seeing your sibling divorce the person you treat like family.
Then there's Tom. He's a lot like Tyler, it's not even funny. Tyler is just a little more self-absorbed, but, in my opinion, he's realized that mistake a little late. But he's realized it nonetheless. My only problem is that Ani has a crush on Tom now. Tom's had a crush on Ani. Ani wants to kiss Tom.

This (I think) could be bad.

Ani and Tom have been friends for a long time, and I think that if she values her friendship with him, she shouldn't want to kiss/date him: it's very difficult to be friends with your ex-boyfriend/girlfriend; I would know.

My only problem is that suddenly Ani is starting to forget about all the fun we used to have. Now with all of the changes... I feel left out and alone. Tyler still doesn't know about Ani's feelings toward Tom, and that makes me angry and upset. Yet I can't bring myself to tell my own soul-brother that his ex-girlfriend has been wanting an affair with Tom since they were dating!

*sigh* My head hurts.
