Ok, well I'm kinda basically in love with my best friend. And he knows that. He said he liked me too, but chose someone else over me. So now he has a girlfriend. He's still my best friend but he confuses me a lot. I know that he loves his girlfriend and would never want to leave her. But like, since he's had his girlfriend, he's kissed me, held my hand, and the other night me, him and my other friend were just kinda hangin out in my room. We were all sitting on the bed & me & him were just like lying down. & he put his arm around me. He always tells me he loves me. But that's because he really does, but just as a friend, I think. This confuses me alot. I don't know if he really does like me, but less than his girlfriend. Or if he's trying to just be nice to me cuz he knows I like him. Can someone please help me understand this? Like what should i do? And what do you think is going on?

And that's not fair to you or his girlfriend. It's confusing you and it must hurt when he does those things. You need to comfront him and tell him you need to know where his feelings really lie about you. He will most likely say he wants to be with his current g/f, so, if that's the case, don't hold his hand or let him kiss you anymore. He needs to understand that either he has all of you or none of you. Don't let him think it's ok to have a girlfriend and lead you on at the same time. It's not fair and it's down right mean. If he really did love you, he would leave his girlfriend and be with you. [ sugarplum07's advice column | Ask sugarplum07 A Question ]

Maybe the way he felt about you before he had his girlfriend was different towards the way e sees you now..
You say he's kissed you while he was with his girlfriend, and you say you love him, but you gotta ask yourself, do you REAALLLYY want to be with a guy that cheats on him girlfriend.. As they say, once a playa, alwaiz a playa.. From the way he seems, he doesnt seem like much of a decent guy if hes flirting with you, and it isnt even subtle flirting.
And also, once a guy knows you like him, he starts doing things flirty because he likes the attention.
I dont think you should let anything happen..
1) becase your best friends, that rarely comes round agen..
2) He just cheated on his girlfriend, and youk never know, he mite do the same to you..

vintagesmiles answered Sunday March 11 2007, 2:10 pm: i think your friend has feelings for you, he is just confused as to what to do right now. maybe he is afraid that if you date and break up it will ruin the friendship you have which sounds amazing. i would rather have a friend forever then a boyfriend for a while, because most relationships as a teen do not last forever. maybe you should talk to him about the way you feel, tell him you cannot keep going on the way you have been (as far as kissing, etc) because its only hurting you girl. hope i could help! :)
