so i've always had a little crush on my best guy friend. he was going out with his girlfriend for THREE years, agh horror! hahaa. anyways they recently broke up which made me happy because he's a single guy now and we get to hangout more! but him and her are still really good friends, i mean they didn't end it bad, feelings just weren't there anymore but she still goes over to his house and hangs out with them because they are so close, i mean three years! who wouldn't be close? i understand that but it's just so hard for me seeing her still hang out with them, i still get so jealous.
am i weird for feeling like this? am i being selfish? me and him have a connection, we are attracted to each other but i just feel like that wall is still there, and that things won't move anywhere between us as long as him and her still talk, do you believe this is true?
i understand couples who break up do stay friends sometimes, but i always have a feeling that they're going to get back together.
ughhhhh any suggestions on what i should do? am i totally just blowing things out of proportion? any thoughts would be nice!

Well I'm glad that things are looking up for you. :)
I understand how you feel. Obviously you are jealous because now that he is single you want him all for yourself, haha. But break ups are really hard even if the two people stay friends. It's hard because sometimes they miss what used to be and wish it could be the same even though they know it can't be. He might not be ready to bounce back into another relationship. And also if you think about it, it would really stink if you were in a 3 year relationship and then right after you broke up, your ex decided to date another girl. Ouch :/
It sounds like you do have a good chance though! I say you should keep talking to him and hanging out and see where it goes. After all, you can flirt now ;). Give it some time and things will probably become more clear between the two of you. Try to stay positive too!
Good luck! <3 [ iwantthetruth's advice column | Ask iwantthetruth A Question ]
