Beta-male "hook-up" story.

Meanwhile the other guy got to sleep in her bed with her. For what seemed like the longest time, I lied there on the floor, watching the other guy spooning her and fondling her breast, but nothing more.

This line brought me back to an old cringe of my own. My first job out of college, we had an 8 week long job training on the East Coast, with over a dozen of us straight out of college staying in an extended stay hotel. The ratio was like 4:1 guys to girls, and of the three girls there was only one cute, single one. She and I got along really well, but she was totally hooking up with the alpha of the group the whole time.

One night we were partying at our friend's place in the city. It got to be around 2 a.m. and I drunkenly called us all a cab back to the hotel (this was pre-Uber), but they didn't have a van that could accommodate our whole group of 5 or so. So we decide to just crash in the living room until the sun comes up. There are 3 couches, two full length and one mini one. The alpha guy stakes out one of the long ones, leaving the girl on the short one, and me and another guy jockeying for space on the other long one. After a few minutes the alpha guy calls the girl over to come cuddle with him, and I had the "pleasure" of watching what you described. I ended up taking the short couch because the other dude on my couch wouldn't budge, and it was better than sharing with him. But because I'm tall, I had to basically curl up into the fetal position to fit. I guess this isn't as cringe considering that I didn't have many other options, but it sucked for me because I had a huge crush/major case of one-itis given the circumstances and the fact that Tinder wasn't around back then either to give me a chance to try and cast a wider net.
