Q: I have a really awesome guy best friend who is like a big brother figure for me. He is like my guide, he always waits for me in every class and after school, he makes sure I'm alright, and he spends his free time with me... people always comment on how inseparable we are. Lately, he's been very attached and I get confused. My boyfriend and I are currently on stage where we're unsure about where we stand at the moment. Because he was away for few weeks and when he came back, I realized how I just felt much more comfortable with my best friend than with him. During the time my boyfriend was away, my best friend acted as if taking over his place; he'd do things my boyfriend would do for me [except all the hugs and holding hands etc] My best girlfriend starts worrying now, she thinks he has feelings for me,,, and since I've always prioritized my friendship over romantic relationship, she's afraid I'll make bad move... and now I've been dreaming about my best friend instead of my boyfriend.. and I am confused now... I don't even know to whom my loyalty and love are with at the moment... but I know that if my best friend loves me, then I'll leave my boyfriend and try to give him my heart. because I'm willing to do anything for my best friend... but then again I'm scared... what if he really has feelings for him? what if I do have feelings for him too? Am I really ready to leave my good relationship for this if it really is there? Because if I make a bad move, things won't go well since we all will end up in same area for college...
well it seems like your best friend definitely has feelings for you. i think you just need to figure out if you have those feelings too. if you do, i think you and your boyfriend should break up, and then you should just see if your friend makes a move or just wait and see if anything happens with him. but if you still love your boyfriend then try to just be friends with the other boy and don't lead him on. it's really a tough situation. good luck!
