My best friend, Jackie, is going out with this guy, Joe. Joe is one of my really good guy friends. Anyways, I like Joe as a friend and nothing more. But when they will do stuff together i find myself getting kind of jealous and for some reason I want them to break up. Joe and I flirt sometimes but it's nothing major. anyways im the one that got them together and helps Joe with all the relationship problems, but it makes me kind of depressed when he talks about how much he loves her and that he wants to stay together with her for years.
And then the other night he was like, "Haha i love you ___(my name)" he meant it in a friendly way but it like gave me a weird feeling in my stomach. But I'm like positive I don't like him! So what's up with this? How can i get over it?
lalaloverxo answered Sunday May 20 2007, 5:33 pm: okay, its alright, your just jealous, not because
you like him or anything major like that, but because she has a boyfriend that cares that much about her. You want to have a relationship like that too and by seeing how sweet he is to her, it makes you sortof want him. Don't worry, you'll find someone just as great as him. Try not to interfere with their relationship though. If you
flirt with him too much, he may start to like you.
and even if that makes you smile a little, if you had a boyfriend that treated you so well and your BEST FRIEND was sortof interfering with it, would't you be upset?
ps.. 90% of the time guys say i love you to their friends.. they mean it. i think this guy may have feelings for you. [ lalaloverxo's advice column | Ask lalaloverxo A Question ]

I think you feel a little bit of regret for getting them together because you didn't know you liked him and now you think you like him more than your friend does but you don't want to admit it to yourself. I had the same problem. You want them to break up but even if they do, you feel like you can't do anything about your feelings for him because that will hurt your friend but you also want them to stay together because it gives you an excuse not to make a move. Honey, what I did was tried very hard not to be around him when I wasn't with her. I talked to him sometimes, but if I could help it, we didn't talk about anything important and I didn't think about him when I wasn't with them. it hurts, and it's a short term fix, but until you find someone for yourself, you are going to be in so much pain over thism you can't even believe it.
