I Thought My Friend Was Helping Me Get A Date, Until I Realized He Was Jealous | Gay Love Story

I thought Franco was the perfect wingman. He knew exactly what kind of man I needed, helped me improve my dating profile, encouraged me to go on dates, and seemed genuinely excited when I finally met someone I liked. But then I started noticing something strange. Every time I got closer to another man, Franco found a reason to dislike him. Every canceled date seemed to make him relieved. And whenever I talked about falling for someone else, his entire mood changed. Eventually, I had to ask myself the question I was most afraid to answer: Was Franco really trying to help me find love… or was he afraid I'd find someone who wasn't him? What started as a friendship slowly became something neither of us had been willing to admit. Sometimes the person you're searching for has been beside you the entire time.
