Ok, here is my dilema. I have a crush both on my best friend and this sophomore.
My best friend is a senior like I am. We hang out a lot. She is single. She is really cool. But I'm afraid that if I ask her out or tell her how I feel and she doesn't feel the same that it will be awkward and we won't be as good of friends.
This sophomore is really awesome. Like I like her a lot. I recently asked her to prom and she said yes, pretty excitedly. Then I asked her out to the movies, She said that she would love to go, but she had to ask her mom. Which is understandable. We never ended up going to the movies, but it wasn't until later that I found out she had a boyfriend, even when she excitedly said yes to prom and movies. I'm afraid that if I don't ask her out when she is single I will lose my chance forever.
So Which should I choose.
My best friend or should i just wait until the sophomore breaks up with her bf?
As for your friend, just ask her. You'll never know how she feels unless you do. Not to mention she's your age, & when you're out of school, the sophomore will still be there, so it might be hard to see each other. Your friend may not feel the same way, but you'll never know unless you ask. If you're worried about losing her as a friend, just say something like "I don't want this to mess up our friendship, but how do you feel about me", or something along those lines. Good luck.

She has already lied to you and kinda thought about cheating on her boyfriend. That is not someone you want to even date. If you tell your bestfriend how you feel the worst that can happen is her not feel the same way. If she is truely a good friend she will tell you how she honestly feels and if it isn't the same as you then she will get over the fact that you like her and still be your best friend. I say this only b/c it happened to me. My best male friend asked me out a few times and I said no and we are still great friends. So what can it hurt. Go for it! Good luck and hope this helps!
