The bride - groom - best man love triangle is very similar to the Alec - Leslie - Kevin one.

Yes, those are the only two movies...where a guy is secretly in love with his friends gal.

Maybe they both stole it from Rick Springfield.

Rick who?

[–] Ldlamb (655) 4 years ago

The singer of Jessie’s Girl.

“ Jessie is a friend,
Yeah, I know he's been a good friend of mine
But lately something's changed
It ain't hard to define
Jessie's got himself a girl and I want to make her mine“

She's my best friend's girl
But she used to be mine
