Hi I'm Brittany! I go out with a boy named Michael and we have an awkward long-distance relationship. My best friend is in love with a boy who is friendly,cute,and popular. Lately she has been telling me that he likes me. I like him. But I could never go out with him because she really likes him. What should I do?

followtheformat answered Sunday August 8 2004, 4:33 pm: I was in this situation almost 2 years ago. Sometimes, if you really like him and the feeling is mutual on his part, you have to go for it. That's what I did, and I've been with my boyfriend for 20 months now.
If this long distance relationship is so awkward, why are you still in it? Before you start going out with local boys, you need to break it off with him if you're feeling awkward. [ followtheformat's advice column | Ask followtheformat A Question ]
awwshucks25 answered Sunday August 8 2004, 4:27 pm: well, personally i wouldn't do it because it could possibly ruin the friendship. and if you ask her and she says she doesnt care, there is a big chance that she really does care but doesnt want to seem like a bitch about it so she says its fine. you just have to ask youself..what is more important...a boy that is just coming into your life or your girl who has been there for you. if you need to talk some more about it IM me on awwshucks25 im on 24/7 so juss get at me on there. hope i helped! *LaUrEn* [ awwshucks25's advice column | Ask awwshucks25 A Question ]

xo_Meg_ox answered Sunday August 8 2004, 4:09 pm: first off, if you aren't into the long distance thing then you should cut it off (even if you don't get with this other guy)...i wouldn't go out with the new guy unless your friend flat out tells you it's okay and you REALLY think she means it or wait until she is over him ~ do u like this guy enough to risk possibly hurting your friend??

dotcom66 answered Sunday August 8 2004, 4:00 pm: well, you already have a long distance relationship. you're friend like the other guy, and she was probablly only telling you he liked you, becuase this upset her. i mean, it might seem like you get everything! (a boyfriend, a the other guy to like you!) so stick with your long distance relatinship and let your friend try to get the popular boy, but if she can't and if your relationship with ur long distance guy is falling apart, then dump the guy whos far away, ask ur friend if you can have the popular guy, then go for it! remember, friends are forever, and guys... AREN'T! hope i helped! good luck <3 dotty [ dotcom66's advice column | Ask dotcom66 A Question ]
GoDdeSsOfEveRyThInG answered Sunday August 8 2004, 3:58 pm: If you are in a long distance relationship, then how could you start a new one. Usually people dont even try long distance unless they are truly in love and you dont exactly sound like you love him. First off, you need to talk to your friend. She knows he likes you and she probably needs to know you like him too. It could really hurt your friendship with her, so I wouldnt risk it. Trust me. My best friend was in love with this guy and I tried hooking them up, well during that time I started to like him and he liked me. I lost her as a friend =( Be careful with your decesion! Good luck girly!
