If you have to make your heart make a choice than you aren't meant to be with either one. Boyfriends may not always stay around but friends always do. Don't ruin the good thing you already have. Good Luck! :)

If brian is anything like me, he'll be near you in any way he can, even if it means just being a friend. I've been in similar situations where I really like this girl whose a friend, then she starts dating one of my best friends. So I just continued to be her friend, despite my feelings for her. If he really is your friend and isn't just seeing you to try to date you, then he'll understand and won't let it get in the way of your friendship.

This is a very sticky situation and the best advice i can give you is to sit both of them down together and say something like, "guys, i recenlty found out that you both like me. I am sorry but I only like Adam as more than a friend, but I want all of us to stay friends." Simply explain that things wont be weird because you are flattered that your friends would like you. Let the boys figure it out themselves. Guys usually dont hate each other after this, only us girls do! Good luck and I hope it all works out!
