I Like my bestfriend's Ex!!


Question Posted Thursday September 4 2008, 5:55 am


Ok, here gos.
My Bestfriend "Jess" go dumped by her boyfriend "Frank"... for his Ex girlfriend... like a month ago or something.

"Jess" still really likes him. She talks about him all the time!

When they were going out, he was tellin me things like: "I really like you!" and "If I wasnt going out with 'jess' I'd totally go out with you."

I didn't even like him then...
But I really like him now!

But i know if i go out with him, "Jes" will get really angry.

its a mather of which is more important your bestfriend or some guy.
remember besties are forever there are plenty of guies out there.
especially if your bestie still likes him, are u willing to risk your friendship?
personally i don't think its worth i am mean he was practically flirting with you while dating your friend!!!
dosn't that speak bad news all over?

I've went out with a few of my friends exes. It's not really that big of a deal. I think that after two people break up, it's fair game to go after what you want. I don't really understand why some people things it's a big deal to date your friends exes... If it's really bothering you, tell your friends the feeling you have for her old boyfriend. The only reason most people are hurt is that you may not tell them about it. Hope I helped.

Hun if your friend still likes him then you should NOT date him if you really care about her then Dont date him he isnt worth your best friend gettin hurt and hes definetly not worth having you both fight over him.

THis is completly up to you. But this is where you need to make the disition. Is this guy worth it? I understand that you really like him, but how much do you care about your BFF. If you are a good friend you'll say no to the guy. Okay, he's not the 'one' right? so why loose your BEST friend? I'm not trying to make the disition for you, but you need to think is it worth it? Is he still even interested in you? Honestly, this is a huge disition. but what it comes down to it, whos more importand this guy or jess?

I'd say bypass on this guy.

FIRST. Your best friend still has feelings for him. You'd hurt her A LOT if you pursued this guy. Dating a friend's ex is a touchy thing in it's own, but when they still harbor feelings for that ex, you're dangerously flirting with being disrespectful.

SECOND. He's obviously a jerk who you really don't want to keep company with. Think about it. While he was dating your best friend, he kept saying "If it wasn't for her, I'd be with you."
That, my dear, is a jerk.

This leads me to give you a question to ask yourself: Would you want your boyfriend saying that to another girl?

If you go out with this guy, not only will you do potentially serious damage to your friendship with your best friend, but he will likely say those things to other girls behind YOUR back. If he's willing to talk that way behind your back, what else is he willing to do?

Come on. Both you and your friend deserve a guy FAR better than that.
