Question Posted Saturday November 19 2005, 6:00 pm
My bestfriend and her boyfriend have been together for about 4 months now. Problem is: he says he likes me! And I'm kind of into him too! I don't know what to do, thats like my bestfriend. I sure don't want to ruin our friendship but oh my goodness I am really into this boy!
I've said it before and I'll say it again: If he's doing this to her more than likely he'd do the same to you if you guys went out- You know the deal with leopards and spots, right?
If he likes you so much what is he still doing with your best friend? Hedging his bets, that's what.
Don't do anything- your friendship will last a lot longer than any relationship with this loser. Sooner or later she will catch him cheating- imagine the double betrayal if it was with her best friend.
xXMrsMcCartneyXx answered Saturday November 19 2005, 11:08 pm: Wow... I feel totally terrible for you. I think that you should talk to him, and tell ask him why he is w/ your BFF if he likes you? Maybe he just means that he likes you as a person. If you're sure that he <i>likes</i> you, then I think it would be safer to wait for them to break up. After the fact, tell your BFF that you like her ex and that he wants to hang out w/ you, and you are telling her this b/c you want to make sure that she is okay w/ the prospect that you guys <i>might</i> go out sometime. I know this might not help you, but please consider this answer. [ xXMrsMcCartneyXx's advice column | Ask xXMrsMcCartneyXx A Question ]

MissIiVannaH answered Saturday November 19 2005, 8:40 pm: Whatever you do don't make any quick actions. for one think about what is more important a boy that you can have a fling with for a while or a friendship that could possibly last longer. I was in the same place you were before and I was stupid enough to choose him and it DIDNT work out. anyways if you get with him wut makes u think he wont do what he is doing to your bestfriends to you.

LadyGoodman answered Saturday November 19 2005, 8:31 pm: Well...really ask yourself here, is losing your best friend worth it? If you go out with him, especially right after they break up, I'm almost sure that's what would happen. You might be into him now, but wouldn't it suck if after a month you got sick of him and then you not only were without a boyfriend but a best friend? It's a really high price to pay for something that might not last. If they break up and after a really long time you still like each other, then maybe go for it. Otherwise, I'd say don't do it.

ShAnNy_L answered Saturday November 19 2005, 7:16 pm: Well... I think that you should try and get over him just because friends come before boys... and if you end up going out wiht this guy then you and your friend prolly wont be friends anymore so i say just try and forget about him...or if he decides he likes you and breaks up with your bestfriend then talk to your best friend about it!

devilspawn_666 answered Saturday November 19 2005, 7:01 pm: My advice to you would be to stay away from your friend's boyfriend while they're still together. If they break up soon and you and this guy are still interested in being together, it's fair game. Your friend might be mad about the possibility of you and her possibly soon to be ex getting together, but if you guys are really friends she'll get over it. Under no circumstances should you mess around with your friend's man while she's with him. That's just begging for a girlfight. [ devilspawn_666's advice column | Ask devilspawn_666 A Question ]

HEYxBEAUTIFUL answered Saturday November 19 2005, 6:41 pm: If you say shes your bestfriend then you wouldn't do that to her no matter what. I would say don't do it because or else you will loose your best friend. Just think what's more important to you : Your friendship with Your Best friend, Or the guy. It's your desicion. ♥ [ HEYxBEAUTIFUL's advice column | Ask HEYxBEAUTIFUL A Question ]

Shortcake22 answered Saturday November 19 2005, 6:29 pm: I hate to tell you, but thats a BIG no no. I went through your exact situation. This guy is no good anyways. Hes dating your bestfriend, yet hes telling you he likes you. He shouldnt be doing that. Thats mean to her. If you date him, your friendship probably wont survive, and even if it does, do you think she'd be able to trust you around her boyfriends again? I know you probably dont want to hurt her but you will. The only way that would be acceptable is if they broke up, you waited for a while (most likely a long time) then asked her permission. There are plenty of guys out there. Find one that knows how to treat a girl. good luck! [ Shortcake22's advice column | Ask Shortcake22 A Question ]
therocketsummer answered Saturday November 19 2005, 6:16 pm: It's an unwritten rule: Bestfriend's boyfriend is off limits.
It shouldn't matter how much you're 'into' him it's your best friend's dude, let her have him. You might want to let her know that he said he liked you, I wouldn't want to date someone who said they liked someone else. It's very selfish if you take this boy away from your best friend, and chances are if you do she wont be much of a best friend anymore.
Conclusion:
If you really want a boy who goes off and likes other girls then this guy is the guy for you.
Swe3ti3boO answered Saturday November 19 2005, 6:16 pm: Chica.. you have to realize that you are seriously playing with fire. Although guys can be VERY tempting, majority of the time, they're seriously not worth it/the trouble. Ask yourself if the friendship is worth more than the temptation. Always keep in mind also.. "What they do with you, is what they'll do to you." [ Swe3ti3boO's advice column | Ask Swe3ti3boO A Question ]
