I like him but he has a g/f who isn't right for him
Question Posted Saturday August 13 2005, 2:53 pm
Ok, here goes, theres this guy Sam and i think he used to like me but i was totally mean to him because he was always kinda annoying. Now he has a girlfriend and i think she is so wrong for him. When i found out that he had a girlfriend i all of a sudden got jealous and didn't know what to do. He's such a sweet guy but this girl is kinda rough around the edges if you know what i mean. She's kinda out there and i don't have a good feeling about her and Sam. I just don't know what to do about the way i feel about him and the jealousy and about how i dont have a good feeling about him and his girlfriend.
Sorry it's so long but i could use some good advice.
P.S. Him and i are kinda friends but we used to talk all of the time.

Then write a reason why you think that. That will make it easier for you to tell him. That way, he won't even think that you are doing it because you don't like him or are jealous. If he does ask, then admit to being jealous, but remind him thats not the reason you came up with whats wrong with her [hence the list].
Sort your feelings out and see if he really does matter to you as a friend to begin with. Even if you don't like him more than just a friend, you still watch out for him and stuff. Hopefully you can get to him and your instincts are right about the girl. It could just be that you are seeing those things because you wanted to due to jealousy [if that makes sence]. Again that way with the list you can see if what you think about them and her makes sence or is all in your head. Still tell him about it though, and don't hint it off in the hopes that he will catch on. If he's still your friend you should watch out for him, even if its about his girlfriend. Good luck.

And you should not get involved in there relationship because he might get mad at you and you might lose a great friend!! Just try to talk to him about what you are feeling I am sure he will understand you!!

Don't try to break them up because it will only make you look bad. Wait until they are no longer dating if you want a chance with him. :) [ karenR's advice column | Ask karenR A Question ]
