You will definately hurt her feelings if you break up with her for your best friend. Especially if your girlfriend has strong feelings for you. You need to weight the pros and cons. Are you and your best friend better as friends? Or could you see a romantic future with this best friend? What happens if you and your best friend break up? Do you think you could remain friends? If not than you are losing a best friend as well as your (current) girlfriend. So you need to figure out what you think will work and what you want. Maybe you and your girlfriend need to try harder to see each other. Any free time you get, you go visit her, or she comes to visit you. Maybe find an activity you two both like and start doing it more.

Relationships are really rough when you start to distance yourselves.But in reality you'll break her heart a lot worse if you stay with her while your feelings for your best friend are growing and progressing.You're right,you don't want to be dishonest with her.Talk with her and let her know that while you still care for her,the fact that your drifting apart from one another is pretty obvious,and it's putting a huge strain on the relationship.If you may want to go back with her later on down the line,maybe say that you just feel in it's both of your best interests if you take a break right now and maybe see other people.That would also give you a chance to examine your feelings for your best friend,find out if she feels the same,and if you'd like to try taking things a step further than friends.I'm sorry this isn't much help!!!I hope it helped some!Good luck!Keep me posted on what happens! :)

Dont be dishonest to her. Just tell her how you feel about you and her and about everything. Maybe you can get closer or maybe you will be able to just break things off between the two of you.

Maybe you two are drifting apart because you guys are starting to lose interest in each other. Or you two dont want to make the time to be together anymore. Maybe there is no real big effort between yins to do this.

And as for the best friend, *please dont be offended by this*, but believe me it isnt all what it is put out to be. For the most part hooking up with your best friend will cause alot of dispute. If soemthing happens in the relationship, where you guys break up, ... trying to go back the way things used to be, just being best friends again, is very hard and difficult to do. 95% of the time you will try and it wont work. And you just lost yourself your best friend. People will always use the line lets just be friends and mot of the time it is too hard for atleast one of them to do this because they still have feelings for the other person. The feelings of more then just friends.

But i always say to follow your heart. I hope that you were not offended the least bit my response. But I am just trying to tell you to think about what you really want and to choose wisely. I hope this helps you and I wish you the best of luck!


XOXO~Barb~XOXO

You shouldn't have to be dishonest. Your going to have to talk to her about how you feel sooner or later, wheather it breaks her feelings or not. But it might be that she feels the same way too about another person. Well get to talking! Hope I helped!

dont be dishonest. Just tell her "its been really fun, but the long distance is killing me" something just like that. Its not being mean. Tell her you wanna be friends with her. Not telling her about who you really like isnt lying, it just is leaving some small stuff out.

GL!

FrEe2bMe answered Sunday October 3 2004, 1:29 am:
Well, this can sometimes happen. But, maybe y'all are drifting apart because you've already lost interest or because you don't apply effort to make time to see her. You may want to think about those 2 things. I think that before you take any breaking up or getting together action you should put forth some effort and spend some quality time with your gf that way you can see if you still have feelings. Try and spend 1 whole day with her, just you and her. If the feelings are still there, then work from there. If not, just be honest and tell her how you are feeling. But you definately have to try first or that's just wrong. Just tell her you feel like you've drifted apart, and you've enjoyed the time you had, and you want to be friends but you've might of developed other feelings. Just be honest. Everything will work out for the best in the end. :)

Well dont say anything. Just yet..You should talk to your best friend about this. See if she has the same feelings for you. If she does, then you have to choose..I hope everything works out ok!!
