What should I do if I think I'm in love with my best friend's girlfriend?

Question

I think I'm in love with my best friend's girlfriend. I know she could be interested in me, but I won't do anything about it because I don't want to hurt her or my friend. I'm really confused because I care about both of them alot, and it's making me seriously depressed. Please help.

Answer 1

If you're all young enough that there's little chance of them marrying, come clean with him. Tell him you may spend a little less time with him just because of this, but it has NOTHING to do with your feelings about him, and you hope to make up for that later on. If you're lucky, he'll help transition her to you when they're through, or else warn you off for good reason.

But if they're in a relationship headed for marriage, bury the feelings deep and throw away the shovel.

Answer 2

This is a difficult question as she may feel the same about you. I just recently found out that my bf's mate likes me and they're pretty close and while i have perved on him i have never honestly thought about it going any further. Now i'm knid of confused and have no idea how it is all goin to work out and wether our friendship will stay the way it is or change. My advice to you is to not make a move behind his back, if he finds out it could ruin your friendship forever. But at the same time it depends on what you want more. Do you want your friendship to stay the same or are you willing to sacrifice it for this girl. Good luck and i hope you think carefully before making your decision.

Answer 3

Don't ruin your friendship over what could possible just be a fling!
If he is truly your best friend then you will forget about his girlfriend.... friends don't do that to each other!!!

Perhaps you just envy the relationship they have and are mistaking her friendship for signs of something more.

Go out and find someone else!! Leave your friend's girlfriend alone!!!!!

Answer 4

dude resist all temptation. she could not be worth ur friends friendship. never let a woman come between you. even tho u r crushin on her and she may be on you, but dont be weak. even if tey break up man law states u may not date a current or past girlfriend of n e friend. and to add u may not make a move on n e current existing crush called first by a friend.

Answer 5

Only if she has as strong of feelings for you should you proceed. You don't want to wreck something special. Just think, if you were in his shoes would you really want someone thinking about taking that special someone from you. I wouldn't. Thats not a true friend. But thats just me.

Answer 6

Back off fast. Theres no easy way but hang out with other people and maybe not so much w/ your best mate. If he asks what's up be honest and let him know you just can't be around her.

Answer 7

you should decide who is more important to you.

if it's your friend, then get over it and decide that it's reason enough to not want her that she is with your boy.

if it's her, tell her. tell your friend. and then show some respect and seperate yourself from them. if she wants you too she'll follow.

good luck. tough one. but there are graceful ways to handle the truth.

Answer 8

how would you like someone longing to take your girl away from you?there are lots of girls,just go out and try.and you call yourself a very close friend,hypocrate!

Answer 9

If you are a real best friend then you will never write such things again. you won't speak them. You will ignore your feelings and find someone single. Of all the things to do you don't hurt your best bud. Please don't do that. KARMA is crazy. Let him have his girl. Go get you one, another one. PLEASE

Answer 10

Hey this happens. But, you can't do a thing about it.
You are probably young. You will get over it.
It will pass.........
