My best friend, Amy, went out with this guy (Nick) for a year and a half. They had a very strong and healthy relationship, but in August, he broke up with her and told her he lost feelings for her many months ago. Naturally, she was very hurt.

However, in October, she got a new boyfriend, Ron, and they have been going out for a month. At first, I was shocked at how quickly she got over Nick, but I figured she knew what she was doing.

However, recently, she told me that she still has feelings for Nick, but she DOES like Ron. She told me she thought I should know that Nick has moved on though, and now he likes me.

I'm very confused. He has not made a move on me yet. Most of you are thinking, "Okay so don't lead him into anything! Show you aren't interested" but I'm not 100% sure whether or not I am interested in him. I have never had a real boyfriend before and I sorta want one. I feel like we would be good together, but there are obviously more cons than pros. For example, people would talk badly about me, it would cause an awkward tension between Amy and I, Amy might get more upset (even though she gave me the ok to date Nick if I want to), etc.

So, I guess I'm leaning towards not wanting to date him if he were to ask me out, but how am I supposed to treat him? For instance, there is a party tomorrow, and he will be there. How do I act? He does NOT know that I know that he likes me. I don't want to call him and talk to him since it might cause more drama. What do you think?

Thank you. (link)
Ok. DO NOT let on that you even have any suspicion that he likes you. If he really does, he will eventually let you know and you can go from there. Be a little mysterious. Try hanging out with him casually and see how your feelings for him develop.

Remember, he did dump your best friend, so if you decide you want to date him, make sure that you can really trust him. Its good that you have the ok from your friend, but make sure she really means it, and that she's not just trying to be nice.

Hope that helps!
