How to stay away from my bestfriends boyfriend
I like my bestfriends boyfriend:( I know it's wrong but I use to have feelings for him and thought they were gone but now that they're dating I got feelings for him again. I feel like a horrible friend but I can't help it....we even flirt. It's like I can't control myself. I can't avoid him because I see him all the time now that they're dating. If I tell my bestfriend she'll either dump him not to hurt me or tell me to stay away from him:( what can I do to get over my feeling for him? I even recently dumped my boyfriend because I felt like I was "cheating" by having feelings for someone else. How can I control my feeling or get rid of them? Thank you:)

First off, I'm sure you can't expect us to say anything but do NOT mess with your best friends boyfriend.
You can't turn your feelings off. This much is true. But when you say you can't help flirting with him, thats not true. You can. Don't. If you have to be standoffish, so be it. When you hang out with your best friend, ask if it can be the two of you more often. He is completely off limits. You wouldn't want to be with someone who would hurt your best friend like that, and you wouldnt want to lose your friend over feelings for this guy.
It sucks, but you need to keep your distance, if not physically but emotionally. Don't engage, don't flirt, and try and get over it.
Also, just so you know, feelings for someone else when you're in a relationship is normal. As long as you don't act on your feelings, and you still love the one you're with, theres no need to end the relationship.
Good luck, and remember crushes are fleeting but a best friend is like a sister.
