I don't want to hurt my ex or his ex or jeopradize our friendship
Question Posted Tuesday December 14 2010, 10:59 pm
Okay. I'm fifteen, a girl, and a sophomore. This guy, we'll call him jack and I have been really close ever since he helped me get through a really rough break up eight months ago (talking to me about it, comforting me, giving me advice, buying me ice-cream). I told him a lot if really deep secrets and we've just gotten close as friends. Well two months ago he started dating this girl in his grade (he's sixteen, a junior) and I really like her, were decent friends (we don't ever hang out per say but were friendly and go out to lunch sometimes). Anyway, a month into their relationship he started getting really annoyed with her and we talked about it and he decided he wanted to break up with her. So he did it and called me five minutes after cause he was feeling kinds shitty. (at this time I had been dating a guy well call him matt for a week). The funny thing was I was having the same feelings about matt that jack was about the girl he was dating. Suffocated, annoyed, frustrated- and this is definitely honest on my part, my unhappiness for matt had nothing to do with any feelings for jack. But I ended up breaking up with jack three weeks later. Jack and matt are friends. Pretty decent friends... But jack and I are so close that I can't tell if we have feelings beyond friendship or not... We text about every day hang out in groups every weekend... But whenever things start feeling beyond friendly we both take a big step back. Like we know things CAN'T happen. Specially him. He always make sure to mention how good of FRIENDS we are but he continues to do extremely flirty things. Like kiss my cheek and Stuff. But he's also reeeeally flirty with other girls. He's just so confusing and I'm so confused myself that I just don't know what to do... I don't wanna hurt my ex or his ex or jeopradize our friendship or bring up anything with jack and freak him out and ruin everything... So what do I do??
