best friend & possible boyfriend,these 2 people went out,wha
Question Posted Saturday March 25 2006, 2:55 am
i have been bestfriends with this girl since the 8th grade, i am now in 11th, and when she was in 9th grade she went out with this guy.
when they broke up me and the guy started to become better friends. This year i would say we have become way better friends and of course i form a huge crush on him. i would say that it is safe that if i asked him to prom he would say yes. the only problem is the relationship between my bf and her ex. she wants them to be friends but he doesn't. She is one of my closest friends but i don't really wanna pass up this possible great relationship with this guy and if i asked him i rish officially ruining my relationship with my friend. what should i do before it is too late?
I sat my best friend down and told her the truth, I explained to her that I had to be honest with her and I had a huge crush on her ex. Turns out she was totally supportive of me liking him and not mad at all!
So my answer would be:
Just tell her; that simple. If she approves great! Go ahead and ask him to the prom. If she doesn't approve youre going to have either respect her feelings and just axcept his friendship for now; or risk losing your best friend and take a chance at love.
Its really a descion that your heart and your heart only can make.

I think that you should talk to your bestfriend about it. I'm not sure what you all's point of view on dating each other exs are. So just talk to her and let her know that you really like him and that it would mean a lot to you if you could take her ex to the prom with her being okay with it.

Have you told your friend that you like her ex? If not let her know. If he doesn't want to be friends with her, hopefully he will at least be polite for your sake.
Your friend may still have some feelings for him or she may not. It could be weird for her at first. I think she will probably get over it. :) [ karenR's advice column | Ask karenR A Question ]
