MELiixMARiiE answered Sunday January 1 2006, 11:08 pm: Well there's nothing really you can do in this situation. You can't break them up. You just need to wait, I guess. And whenever they break up, tell him your feelings and see if he wants to date you again. Just this time, don't let go of him. Keep him. Obviously there's no need to worry about feeling guilty cause your best friend obviously didn't feel bad about dating him. I hope I helped.
syireen answered Sunday January 1 2006, 9:11 pm: i really think you should not try anything to break them up, you had him and you let him go ,its now up to him if he likes you more then your friend then just wait and see what fate will do. dont risk your friendship over a guy besides i think its just infatuation, and im sure youll find someone else you feel strongly for .your still young and your feeling are mixed up inside!!

KiSSxMYxPEARLS answered Saturday December 31 2005, 1:23 am: You shouldn't have let him go in the first place. I say just be friends with him for now & be happy for your friend. Next time if you guys go out, keep him. Don't lose him & let him go.
HOPLESSxROMNTC answered Saturday December 31 2005, 1:15 am: I think what happens to you is you like what you cant have. When you didnt have him you liked him then when you had him you lost interest then you lost him again so you like him again. My advice is to move on because most likely if you guys get back together you will lose interest again.

MissJessicaPaige answered Friday December 30 2005, 11:06 pm: Omg! I'm am in that very same situation at that very exact age! Wow, anyway, your problem. Honey, you got 2 options. Keep liking him and set yourself up to get hurt thinking that it will all be worth it in the end or get over him. I'd strongly suggest the 2nd one. Get out there and met new people, different people!!! It'll seem starnge and/or boring at first but don't worry you'll get used to it. Getting over him is gonna be hard, but just hang out with your friend,but don't include him because that will only make it worse.
deathwillcome answered Friday December 30 2005, 9:43 pm: you have to get over the boy. I know that that doesn't sound fun or right, but it is true. If you don't feel the same while you are with him (as in you don't like him anymore) then you can't continue to go out with him and expect anything different. Find someone else or find something to do, you will get over him in time. He obviously is over you. You trying to get him back could cost you your friendship with your friend. You wouldn't want that. I hope that I helped and remember that my inbox is always open. You don't have to rate, but it would be nice. Thanks! [ deathwillcome's advice column | Ask deathwillcome A Question ]
devilspawn_666 answered Friday December 30 2005, 9:07 pm: Well, you're probably not going to like my answer, but you need to try to get over this guy. He obviously didn't fulfill your needs when you were dating him.. which is why you aren't dating him now. Your friend is dating him now, and interfering with their relationship isn't going to get you anywhere. Just try to move on with your life.. any guy that dates your friend right after dating you isn't worth your time anyways. [ devilspawn_666's advice column | Ask devilspawn_666 A Question ]
rjbgiveshotadvice answered Friday December 30 2005, 7:53 pm: Here's the key word here, 'best' friend. If she is your best friend, talk to her. Does she have strong feeliings for him?Or is it just a fluke? Also, are you and this guy friends? Talk to him, are those two right for eachother? Or does he still have feelings for you? I think you should communicate to find you answers.
Good Luck!
XO-

ViTaChaN answered Friday December 30 2005, 7:26 pm: OMG!! I can't believe this.. that is happening to me right now..I think you should tell him that you still like him..maybe he won't do anything about it..but it's okay..you can still be friends with him, right? But you know what I think? I think that he was so depressed, and so he asked another girl out to make him feels better..that's what I thought..Hope I helped because I really really want to help you!! And this is not a commercial..That thing is happening to me right now and I know how you feel..
sarraleew answered Friday December 30 2005, 7:23 pm: this is a hard one but i went though something similiar once. i dated a guy,lost interest, we broke up, and then we started dating again. we dated 4 dates. so my advice is leave it unless you want to go though an on-again-off-again relationship. because guys don't change and chances are that you will loose interest again. sorry.

onlyme answered Friday December 30 2005, 7:10 pm: I hate to say it but girl u screwed that up. Why did you break up with him in the first place. i hope you broke up with him for a good reason because that was dumb. I would tell both your ex and your friend how you feel.
ASHL3YNICOL3 answered Friday December 30 2005, 6:55 pm: Well..its not ur friends fault that shes dating him..its your fault for letting the guy u like get away..so what i would do is wait intill they break up and ask your friend if she still has feelings for him and if she dont then i say go for it..what the heck you only live once..Hope i helped =)
