No offense, but you sound jealous of what ya man's got, breh.
And who uses a dude in a committed relationship as a wingman at a bar anyway? Fck you expecting from him? Dont you have any other single boys who wont activate your jealousy that you dont have a woman, and also be better wingmen at bars or clubs?
Epiphany alert.
Holy shiit Batstan... i believe i was hatin'!
Damn. But i'm happy for my friends in deep, meaningful relationships (but i didn't see the light cuz i was never really in one so my understanding of it was vicarious - which is type unauthentic on some variant j's type stee-leaux).
Was kinda dissapointed when my dudes who were single, got into a relationship and weren't avail as wingmen anymore (but in retrospect, they weren't good at that anyway, too reserved, relied too much on their looks, and that caused the girl i was going for to shift their attention to the winger. The wingee gets duped. LOL!).
Any who... i can emphatize for JG's dilemma cuz losing a friend to relationships (especially during that era, early 20's when you kick it hard and experiment with new shiit/drugs, events, venues, parties and can travel, etc.) - it's tough.
Being as old as i is, let me tell you this John; Just keep your social circle voluminous enough to where you can have kick it reserves. Now, i know they don't hold the same weight and dynamic as the ones you were always tight with, but building a bond with an acquaintance or new friend will open up your eyes and expand your horizons to new life territories.
Enjoy your youth and don't fret cuz you lost homies to the game of love.
I always tell my young kinfoke that you have to respect other peoples relationships cuz by the end of the day, you ain't the one putting the spin on they proverbial hamster wheel - THEY IS!
You just have to take it as it is and be supportive.
