I have had a thing for this guy, Brad, for a couple weeks now which was when I first met him. We hang out almost every weekend now. Anyway, Yesterday we went bowling and I brought my friends Ria & Anne with me. We had a good time then after, Brad's friend who came with us said that they all thought Anne was hott. then Brad said he likes her & he wants to hang with her sometime. I really want him for myself & I can't diss Anne b/c we're still mending things we fought about fo the past couple months. (it was all over how she treated my best friend when they were dating). Anne doesn't want to go out with him since she barely knows him but i think she kind of likes him but just doesn't want to hurt me. what do I say to Brad when he won't stop asking me about her? Should I flat out tell him I like him? I used to be the person he wanted to hang out with as friends & now he likes my friend. What should I do without sounding like a bitch? thanks.
Ask the girl what she really thinks about the guy. Be like: hey Anne, I was wondering, and don't take this the wrong way, but what do you think of Brad? I mean there really is nothing wrong about asking her that, and thats not being a bitch. If she says she likes him or something like that, or you can tell shes hinting it off or trying to cover it up, then I wouldn't try to change that for her.
If thats the case, tell Brad to ask Anne and not you. When he asks you about Anne, just reply with: umm I'm not sure, just ask Anne herself. Really, whether you know or not, if its something other than basic general info, then do that.
Other than that, I mean I'm sure you probably didn't want to hear those answers, but think about it: if you stay completely out of it and something happens with them, when it falls apart nobody can blame you, you know? But I mean if it seems like Anne isn't interested, then sure there is nothing wrong with telling Brad that, so go for it. So if you see something is about to happen, try to stay out of it - if not, go for it.
Oh and next time either of them talks about doing something, mention to invite other people as well - the more the better. Hope that helped and good luck. [ HectorJr's advice column | Ask HectorJr A Question ]

If he prefers Anne though, there isn't a lot you can do about it. It really wouldn't be her fault.
Talk to him and see what he says. :) [ karenR's advice column | Ask karenR A Question ]
