okay, so my friend just broke up with her [ex]boyfriend after 10 months of them going out. she said she doesnt like him like that any more and just sees him as a friend and wouldnt ever go out with him again. she even told me that if any of her friends were to go out with him after this, she would want it to be me. and recently ive really started to like him and so i flirt with him every once in a while. i know he is really bummed about them breaking up, but he is such a nice guy, and has every perfect quality, and i just cant help but to be attracted to him. am i a bad friend for this?? what should i do?!
angie91 answered Friday November 17 2006, 7:10 pm: I definatly wouldnt consider you a bad friend. But I dont think you should flirt wih him if you an help it. It is okay to like him, but if she just broke up with him, seeing him with you may not be exactly what she needs. So I think that you should talk to her, but not right away. Wait a while, like a couple of weeks. You have to give her time to cool down. And then if she still says she doesnt mind, then I would talk to him, but he may not even be ready for another relationship right away, so I think that you should just play it cool He is probably a little confused as where he stands with you and stuff, so I'd just be a friend. I hope I helped a bit, Good luck, hope it all works out [ angie91's advice column | Ask angie91 A Question ]

sizzlinmandolin answered Friday November 17 2006, 5:32 pm: Not at all! If she hadn't said anything and you had gone behind her back and flirted with him, then you'd be a bad friend. You didn't do anything like that at all. I mean, you didn't even have to ask her if she was okay with it, she told you she was on her own. It almost sounds like she wants you to. There's no reason to feel guilty. If you can't help feeling like a bad friend, talk to her and tell her exactly what's on your mind. She'll reassure you better than anybody that it's completely fine. Good luck. :) [ sizzlinmandolin's advice column | Ask sizzlinmandolin A Question ]
