what should i do?

Question

okay theres a girl i like but my friend likes her too. the girl is about to break up wit her bf and i want to ask her out so badly but so does my friend. he said he'll be mad if i ask her out but i've liked her for like forever. what should i do?

Answer 1

it's all fair in love and war

Answer 2

First of all, give the girl a chance to breath, if she's braking up with her bf, don't go and attack her.
Does your friend know you like her too? If so, who's liked her longer. If you know he's liked her longer, you sort of have to step aside and be a good friend. Girls will come and go but friends are forever. On the other hand, if he knows you've liked her longer, then he should really step aside and let you ask her.
Another factor in this is how close are you to your friend, is the girl worth the risk. Is he more like a hi - bye friend and you feel like this girl could be the "one". Then I'd go for it. But you could approach as a friend first to give her a little breather after the brake up.

Answer 3

Figure out who means more to you, your friend or the girl? I would also tell your friend that if he asks this girl out that you are also going to be mad at him. Personally, I say forget the friend and go for the girl. I used to value friends above relationships until I learned that neither last forever. You have to do what is best for you too, or you will live to regret it. Your friend is not being fair to you if you have liked her longer, and I bet he is going to ask her.

Answer 4

Well I think you should just be friends with her for awhile, earn her trust. Then when she breaks up with her bf just see what happens, if she likes you then more than likely she won't go out with your friend. You don't have to ask her out right away, more than likely she won't be ready for another bf right away but she will need a friend. I hope this helps

Answer 5

If your friendship is important to you, you need to really think this through. But honestly it isn’t fair that he is trying to guilt you out of pursuing a girl you like. It’s the same as being mad at him for asking her out.

Answer 6

even though you are friend's why should you have to listen to what he says. so he told you that he would be mad at you and soo does that mean he can just go and ask her out and you are supposed to be okay with it? you do what your heart tells you to do...who cares if your friend will be mad...he can just get over it!

Answer 7

explain to your friend how much you like her. And if he still tells you not to ask her out, then you should tell him that the same applies to him, and therefor neither of you date her. Is this girl really worth risking your friendship over!!??

Answer 8

you should decide whether you want YOU to get mad or your friend.
If you ask her out then your friend get mad and if your friend asks her out then you get mad.
if you want to get happy instead of getting mad then you ask her out.
I would say the exact answer to your friend to if he asked me this question.
but always remember that although we want to be nice and respect the others, we have to put ourselves FIRST.

Answer 9

I think you should BOTH forget about this girl. It will only come between your friendship. There are plenty of girls out there.

Answer 10

just tell your friend that you really like this girl and tell him your gonna ask her out then go for it

Answer 11

screw this so called friend he should just accept that he has competition and the only reason he can't is because he is afraid that you will get her so all i can say is go for it bro you have my blessings
