I'm going out with a guy...that I dont really wanna be with.


Question Posted Sunday August 27 2006, 7:16 am

Well here's the deal. I'm going out with a guy that I don't really want to be going out with. I only said yes because I know he really likes me but I just don't like him. I like his best friend. But his best friend has a girlfriend...but he likes me back. So I really don't know what to do. I don't know how to dump him but still be friends? Please someone...HELP.

Wow. That could totally be a plot fo a Gossip Girl book [just kidding]. Well here's what you should do: You need to break up with your boyfriend, because it's really unfair to lead him on. Then you should talk to his friend and ask him if he likes you or his girlfriend better. If he picks you, then tell him you're willing to go out with him ONLY if he breaks up with his girl. If he picks her, just say, "That's fine with me," and look for someone new. Who knows, maybe you'll finally fall for the guy you're with right now. But if you and your bf just don't have The Spark, then tell him you really want to be friends with him and you hope all of this didn't get in the way of your potential friendship.

Hope that helped! <3

Well if you really don't have feelings for him then there was no reason to dating this guy.
Next time you see him say that your relationship with him is not working and tell him that you and him should still be strong friends with one another.

You should never go out with someone you don't share any feelings for. It's wasting both of your time and he will be deeply hurt in the end.
When you next see him, just explain to him you don't want to be in a relationship at the moment but you would love to still build a strong friendship with him. It's better if you tell it to his face. He will respect you so much more.
If you break up with him, give it a few weeks before you sort things out with his friend.
and bare in mind, if you get with him, your ex will most probably be upset and it could jeopardize his friendship.
