It is never how we want it (in love)

A few weeks ago I went with my friends S and E (high school friend who found me via Facebook last year)to the bar Söders Hjärta http://www.sodershjarta.se/ to have some wine and chat. We had a very nice evening and S and I were talking (before E turned up) about how hard it is to find a good man and that it happens so often that when one likes someone that person rarely likes one back or vice versa. And... I got proof of this before the evening had ended because when S had left, E thought it was a good idea to head home already at 9 pm and I thought to myself "great" because usually when we meet up the evening ends at 2 am in a drunken state with a working-day coming up so I was happy to leave on time. So we started leaving the bar when E firmly took my hand and started walking in the direction of the buses to my house and I thought "hey what's happening here?" so I asked him in a surprised voice; "you don't live anywhere close to my house so where are you going?" How are you going to get home?" And he looked very defeated all of a sudden and said he could always take another bus. And I left him there and hurried to get my bus and afterwards I thought, of course, he wanted to come with me home, and unfortunately I don't like him IN THAT WAY, but I like someone else - as usual.
