Nice guys always something something...
I met a girl at a mutual friend's house a while back. I was instantly attracted to her as was a mate of mine (Lets call him Lucas).

After a quick chat Lucas agreed to let me try my luck. But then made a move at his earliest convenience anyway, successfully I might ad.

I quickly surmised that one: Lucas wasn't that good of a friend to me and two: he was even worse as a boyfriend to her. So using this information, I took to the best course of action and simply one-upped him at everything a boyfriend should be best at.

This was hardly as devious as it might sound. I didn't do it on purpose as such, it just naturally happened.

When he wouldn't buy her a drink, I would.
When he wouldn't listen to her, I did.
Etc...
etc...
etc...

Again, I wasn't doing this to get at him or to get to her.

After 4 months they had broken up and a short while later me and her were on. Still are actually. Nearly 2 years later. Just moved in together. Couldn't be happier. As for Lucas... Don't talk to him much anymore.

I'm pleased for you but confused...
If you weren't doing it to get at him or get to her, why were you doing it?
