Well , I was in a relationship for a year & 3 months ... he Broke up with me 5 months ago .. Me and this guy Jason have gotten really close over the months and we're like the BEST 0F FRiENDS , we know everything about each other . Well he dated this girl for a year & 8 months , she broke up with him I believe in the begining of October fest. My bestfriend dated my ex in August and that killed me [ ofcourse we're not friends anymore! ] -- Well n-e ways ... Me and Jason hang all the time , well our feelings [ both ] are kinda growing more than " best friends " . I really don't wanna hurt Liana [ his ex ] but she broke up with him .. I know how it feels but I think it hurt me way worse because I was still in love with Justin [ my ex ] and wanted to be with him . I don't know what to do , I ALWAYS think of someone else before me .. that's just who I am . I'm scared to let my feels grow for my bestfriend but I can't help it either . I don't want to hurt anyone but my mom says I need to put me first ... but I don't wanna step on anyone . Jason [ the best friend ] wants to gradually evolve into somthing more , am I wrong for going along ? Please be honest .
My advice to you is this; You must talk to Liana about this situation before you can think about a relationship with Jason. If you talk to her, you might be pleasantly surprised with her reaction to the idea of you and Jason becoming more than "best friends", especially since she was the one that put an end to the relationship.
I do believe that if you and Jason have strong feelings for each other and Liana does not approve of it, than she needs to understand that there is a reason that they are not together anymore and you should not have to lose a chance with Jason over it and her jealousy. They are not together anymore for a reason and for you to talk this over with her before proceeding with your feelings is a decent action enough.
