LidDLemiSzJkiDd answered Friday April 22 2005, 4:37 pm: Well, I was in a similar situation. I was friends with this girl and her boyfriend. I met him first, and have liked him since first grade(which was when we met), and just kinda forgot about it because we both moved. I became really good friends with this girl in 10th grade..Then not too long after her and i became friends, they started dating. I was completely happy for both of them because i considered both of them to be my good friends. I kind of hid my feelings because they were happy, and i didn`t want to ruin anything with either of them. Well after they dated for a year, they broke up. Him and I continued to be friends and her and i became extremely close, then slowly fell apart. Currently I am with him and we're 100% happy. SO i guess what i`m trying to say, is that you can`t really help who you like...theres no set rule saying don`t date your friends ex's.(as much as people say its not right) It might hurt, but if you two weren`t meant for each other, why not let a potential relationship develop with them? you never know. All i can say is in the end, if he`s meant to be with you, then it will happen in the end. Only you can decide whether to continue the friendship with her.

besides, if you went back out with your ex, then i kno that you wouldnt feel the same way like before. also, you might just end up dumping him again. i did that, and i regret it. but actually, your not supposed to regret the things you take part in.

You should tell Monica how you feel and if she doesn't care for what you say and goes out with Jeremy, she is not a true friend! Just try talking to her.

o0xbrianna answered Friday April 22 2005, 1:43 pm: Ugh that sucks. If she knows that you still like him, she would deff. not go out with him. Friends are not suppose to go out with their best friends ex boyfriend! Tell her how you feel, and if she still does go for him, she is no a true friend. Hope I've helped.
naly_cage answered Friday April 22 2005, 1:26 pm: hey, it looks like you're in a real hard situation. If your best friend (monica) knows that you still have feelings for your ex-boyfriend then she should be able to think for herself that it's not right to go with him. In a friendship this would be wrong...On the other hand, you have a new boyfriend. If you still have feelings for your ex-boyfriend then what are you doing with that new guy? If you plan on trying to get back with your old boyfriend (Jeremy) then you should end your relationship with your boyfriend as soon as possible...I think you should talk to Monica as well, tell her again what you still feel for Jeremy. Is she decides to date him anyway, then I think your friendship might not be real and certainly not worth it. You don't do that to your friends.
