ive known this guy for almost 3 years and we were in junior high when we met but we are now in high school and we have been off and on since the first week i met him we got together after knowing him for 1 week. before that he was with my friend but she used him. every time i see him it feels like my heart is popping out of my chest and i dont know what to do. he likes my friend that used him 3 years ago and she likes him back and they always flirt and i cant stand to watch him do it...what should i do?
Additional info, added Wednesday May 14 2008, 6:37 pm: well he didnt learn the first time and they are always flirting and he does anything to get near her and i tried to be a good friend and help get them together but he thinks im jealous but he doesnt know i like him...only 1 person does and thats my best friend and i told him 30 min ago
my friend he likes used him for presents for christmas but he never knew that and they are really good friends still.
i was thinking on the last day of school to tell him so he can think about it all summer like he made me do last year...he asked me out the last day of school and i said no but he kissed me goodbye and told me we would try again the next year but he started liking someone else but on my birthday he was talking to my friend(the one he likes? and she told him to ask me out so he did the next day and we got together but he started to not talk to me and when he did it would be for 1 min and halfway threw him saying something he would leave to hang with his friends. what should i do now that you know most of what happened?.

Let him make his own mistakes because he'll soon come to realise that she's not worth it. If you told him not to go out with her, he will only see it as you being jealous and being up in his buisness. Leave him to be a taught a lesson. Accept he isn't to you at the moment, just be there for him as good friend when he falls and she doesn't catch him. [ mariahwannabe's advice column | Ask mariahwannabe A Question ]

If you really like this guy and want answers, you're only going to get them by asking him straight up what his interests are. Don't let him sound like this victim, by saying that your friend was using him--because that's no excuse for a guy who still flirts with her anyway.
Either way, from what I read, it sounds like he's a bit of a jerk. Therefore, if your heart is really going nuts when you see him, enough to make you still want him, then tell him.
In the mean time, look around you and see what other guys are good or even better for you. Because even if you don't find something better, this other guy will see that your not hung up on him, and possibly try harder.

There really isn't anything you can do about the fact they like eachother. You can't change either of thier minds.
If YOU want something to happen with this guy, you need to step up and let him know that. If you want a boyfriend, let him know. Invite him out. Hang out with him. Listen to what he says. Flirt with him. Be interested in the person he is.
You can't force anybody to like you, or to not like somebody else, but you got to be honest with him or else you'll never know what could have been. [ Razhie's advice column | Ask Razhie A Question ]
