Tonight, though, she went out with her friends. Naturally, whenever she goes out I have an inherent insecurity without another guy even looking at her and me not being able to do anything about it. She's an absolutely gorgeous human being, and she's one of those girls where if you saw her in public, she'd make your head turn, and if youre one of those douchey college types, you'd try everything to get with her. That's where my problem starts.
When she was out tonight, she texted me saying "I'm sorry, I couldn't do anything." A few texts later, I find out a guy walked up to her, put his arm around her, and started to caress her in the middle of her talking to friends. She said all she could do was slap his hand away and walk away. She got in a friend's car to go somewhere else, and the guy forced himself into her car and tried to put his arm around her. She told the driver to stop, and she jumped out and the guy couldn't get out in time. For the first time in two years, someone tried to take her from me.
I don't go down to see her for another month and a half, so I just thought I'd break him when he least expected it. I'm 6'1", lean, athletic, and (this is going to sound corny as hell), and I have a warriors mentality and won't stop a fight until one of us is unconscious. But then I simply ask "alright, how big is this guy." and she responds. "That's why I couldn't do anything, he's 6'7" and 200 pounds.
Do you know how helpless that makes me feel? My woman, a person I am supposed to make feel safe no matter the circumstances, and protect her from everything that can harm her, was advanced on by a man that's a half a foot taller than me, and has 50 pounds on me. I can't do anything. I'm 1200 miles away, and she felt unsafe, and I'm sitting up here helplessly. I feel emasculated. I feel worthless. I feel like I'm not worthy of her because I could protect her.
I know it's a long shot, but does anyone on MMO-champ possibly have some advice for me?
