Well, telling the whole story could potentially take a while, so I'll do my best to summarize. There's this guy--let's call him Bob--and he and I have been really good friends basically since we met. I always kind of had a crush on him, but he always had a girlfriend. Then his gf turned out to be a lying bitch, and they broke up, and wonder of wonders, he asked me out. Of course, I said yes. We dated for five months total, and we had a really great relationship. We never really argued, we got along great, I loved him more than anything. He was even talking about us potentially getting married one day.
Well, he had this really close female friend--we'll call her Mary. After we'd been dating for about three months, he realized he had feelings for her, and broke up with me. It only lasted for about two days and then he came back to me, saying he'd made a huge mistake, didn't want to lose me, etc. I took him back, and he promised me it wasn't going to happen again.
Of course, it did. He broke up with me, and he's been going out with Mary ever since. Now, I don't know what to do. He's my best friend, and I don't want to change that. But I still can't help but have feelings for him. I guess you could say he was my "first love," and I'm having issues getting over the whole thing. I still get jealous just about every time I see Mary, or anyone mentions her, or anything. It's been months, and I know I should be over it by now--and it doesn't hurt as bad as it used to, but I just can't seem to stop being bothered entirely.
What should I do? Any advice would be vastly appreciated. Thanks. =)

You are going to have to face the fact that he is with her and move on.
Start dating...thats a good way to start the process of getting over him. [ khadiya's advice column | Ask khadiya A Question ]
