He likes you
This I know.
He doesn't like her
I also know this.
He touches you,
talks to you,
has fun with you.
He is bipolar towards her.
He's grown used to her ways,
lived them,
loved them,
learned from them,
hated them.
People say she's consumed with jealousy.
What they don't know,
is that she isn't.
She is not jealous.
She does not get jealous-it's not her.
She's come to the knowledge of:
He's not hers, she has no reason to be jealous
Come to knowledge that
She can't be jealous of something that's not hers
Come to the realization that
He may never be hers
and she's perfectly fine with that.

Now you-
You're in the same position they were.
You're just a different version of her.
You've come to the knowledge that
He doesn't like her
Come to the knowledge that
He does care for you
Come to the realization that
You can rub him in her face

But do you realize that she doesn't care?
I assume you don't.
I know you don't.
Because you are one of those people.
Because you are unaware.
This is not a game.
This is reality.
This is manipulation.

Now,
I've learned to read people.
I can read you.
I can read her.
I can read them.
I can read us.
Once a person is able to read others,
they become full of knowledge.
Knowledge of
people
life
peoples' lives
anything.
This is reality.
This is life.
