My boyfriends best friend tries to flirt with me...?
Question Posted Friday April 6 2012, 4:00 pm
my boyfriends best friend tries to come close to me..he said he likes me, but he behaves very innocent in front of my boyfriend....... my boyfriend trusts him a lot. If I tell my boyfriend I think it would start drama between them & maybe me. Should I tell him?

The better thing to do is explain everything to your boyfriend. He might get upset with his friend, but it would end whatever weirdness is going on. If you don't really have the guts for that (some people just can't) then at least talk to his friend about it. Tell him how it's wrong he's doing that to his friend and it makes you uncomfortable. Just remember; if you make it into a big deal it will be. Casually tell him saying something like, "Hey so Bob has been flirting with me or something lately, is it like a test or something?" Something light but also getting the point across that there's something going on. Hope this helps!!:] [ kkattiee's advice column | Ask kkattiee A Question ]

Why not speak to your bf's friend about how you feel first?
If he was anything of a friend to your boyfriend he'd be a friend to you as well. And if he's a friend to you then he'd know when he had taken things too far. Pull him to a side and talk to this guy, being polite. Just ensure you're firm but friendly and fair.
And if it doesn't stop, letyour boyfriend know. Who cares if it causes arguments between them both? You gave his friend a chance, and so did your boyfriend.

This guy is being very two faced indeed.
If this is making you uncomfortable then you need to confront your boyfriend about it. You should be able to communicate with one another about things like this. If he loves you he will believe you and have a word to his friend.
alternatively you could speak to the friend and let him no in no uncertain terms that his behaviour is unacceptable and it makes you feel uncomfortable.
bottom line you shouldn't be placed in this situation.Confront the friend first and if he doesn't back off then tell your boyfriend.
Best of luck hope I helped!

He is being two-faced. Tell the best friend that what he is doing is wrong, he will never have you and to stop doing what he's doing.
Alternatively, you could subtly direct conversations with your boyfriend toward finding out how much he really trusts his friend in comparison to how much he trusts you, and if he would believe you if you were to tell him something as 'absurd' as this. Best of luck! [ EmbersOfBetrayal's advice column | Ask EmbersOfBetrayal A Question ]
