Would This Move Make Him That Guy?

 A friend of mine came to me the other day with a quizzical look on his face. I said what's up and he said he was having a women issues. Dr. Phil I am not but I was at the point of no return. This is when he filled me in on his dilemma.

He said it all started with this girl who he had his eyes on for a year or so but never made a move because she had a boyfriend. Which is a problem but he had more to tell me. Supposedly this "couple" (he used air quotes so I decided to do it as well) are not really a couple. If you are as confused as I was read on.

They don't introduce themselves as a couple when out and about. She is looking for a way out but can't really find a man worthy of her company. I had a couple of thoughts flash across my mind but decided not to make them public. He wanted to know if he starts talking to her and putting on the moves does it make him that guy? Which guy you ask? The douchebag who steals another guys girl. But as wise man once said "if she starts talking to you and is looking for a way out then it's not your fault, it's her boyfriend's fault."

And then after rationalizing his decision to go for it he dropped a line that just echoed the sign of the times: "I guess it's really not that bad because they are not a couple on Facebook."
