LilBSUBabe08 answered Tuesday August 21 2007, 9:59 am: Ok, first off of, yes... I am going to tell you that if someone would do that and just stop being your friend over you liking her EX boyfriend, even after you offered not to see him anymore, SHE ISN'T YOUR FRIEND. She says you don't care about her, yet... how much can she really care about you if she dosen't want you happy? You obviously care about her enough to consider her feelings. This really is HER problem at this point, not yours.
There is a reason for saying she isnt really a friend in the first place, its TRUE.
Honestly, if I were you, I would stay with the guy and stop worrying about what she thinks. You gave her a chance to tell you not to do it, and she didn't. So... go for it. Its up to her to deal with it. You deserve to happy and who is she to tell you otherwise? Ya know?
I think you have been MORE THAN considerate in this situation, and I don't think you need to worry. You will find better friends if this one don't come around. Just hang in there. And, in the meantime, make yourself happy. Hang on to this guy! You will be glad you did! [ LilBSUBabe08's advice column | Ask LilBSUBabe08 A Question ]
AskAllie answered Sunday August 19 2007, 11:20 pm: To be honest, you didn't do anything wrong. You had no idea that the girl dated the guy off and on, and it's wrong of her to be upset with you for something you didn't even do. Also, you're not even going out with him, you just hung out with him. There's a big difference, did you try explaining that to her?
For the time being, I would only remain friends with him. Explain to him that you value her friendship, and you don't want to lose her. Tell him that you really like him, and that you still want to be close friends and maybe something more eventually. I know this will be hard, but I personally value friendship over guys. If you're worried about having all of your friends turn their backs on you, I would just remain friends.
I would also try to talk to her again. Explain the situation to her and tell her that you honestly didn't know about their previous relationship. Tell her that you don't want to lose her and that you are only friends with the guy. Make it very clear that you still want to be close friends with her.
I don't know if you've been in the type of situation that the girl has been in before, but it's incredibly difficult to know that your ex, whom you still love, is interested in other people. Try to be gentle with her, as she still is heartbroken.
BeautifulGirlxo answered Sunday August 19 2007, 4:17 pm: Wow, this is hard, I think your just going to have to go for it, if you're friends go against you, screw them.. their not true friends! Since you're friend gave you permission to go for it, do it!
xox, i couldnt really help much, ive never been in that situation.
LagunaBabe answered Sunday August 19 2007, 2:50 pm: Actually, I wasn't going to say you're not real friends. I do think you are real friends, because this kind of thing happens often...too often. So here's my advice to you: I think that either way, unfortunately, someone is going to get hurt out of this situation. Even though your friend says she's eventually get over it, we both know how that goes. She's still going to hate it that you're with him, I've been there and I still don't like the girl who did that to me. It feels like a betrayel in one way.
However, in another way, she has to understand that you are her friend and you really like this guy. And what she and him had is over, and it's going to be over whether you and this guy are close or not. It's not going to change.
So if I were you, I would talk to your friend and let her know how you feel and that you really like this guy. That you're sorry that everything is over between her and him, but you have to be happy too. And that you're going to continue seeing him, and you hope that she can accept that as your friend.
AlyssaBT4T answered Sunday August 19 2007, 1:47 pm: If I were in your place I would believe you BFF, that she won't turn on you.
Now about the guy, if she were your friend then she would just let you be, to date which ever guy you liked.
But if I were in your shoes,
i wouldn't go out with him, until your friend was way over him.
Sorry I can't help much, this is a tough question.
