Theres nothing wrong with you liking your best friends crush. Heck I liked my best friends boyfriend one time. Maybe you can talk to her and tell her that you really like this guy and get along well with him and would like to see if things could work out between you too.
If shes really a friend she’ll let you have a try at happiness. And from what you said she has 4 other guys to fall back on lol
same **** happend to me, definitely talk to ur friend about it. i didnt and hookd up with her. **** went all bad, but i guess it depends on what kind of person ur friend is.
If ur friend has 5 crushes then there’s no problem unless they already are seeing each other. Either way just tell her you’re going for him, and she can have the others.. name them… If she’s a real friend and she’s not seeing him she’ll want you to be happy. Make sure he’s really into you though, he could just be a flirt.
It all comes down to the fact that no one gets to decide who they are attracted to. If this guy was paying you attention and make you feel that you had a connection with him- i’m assuming that your friend was around also?- then he is obviously just not into your friend like that. I would talk to her about it first because she has expressed her crush to you but if you talk to him before that be open enough to see how he feels about her. Ask in a nice way, if he expresses disinterest for her and you think you can trust this guy then explain to him the situtation and sort of feel out how he feels about your friend. By doing this you will also make yourself more confident (or not) about the potential relationship you may have with this guy.. and also figure out how to approach the conversation that you may need to have with your friend.
i know i really want to tell her….but im one of those friends that trys to avoid this kind of stuff but i cant help it! i keep thinking bout it and i talked to him about it and he says she needs to know cause he wants something to happen between us and he is not interested in her…but yea she was around when we hit it off and he asked for my number and she wasnt so happy bout it….i cant imagine being like welllllll i like him, and we;ve been talking hope you understand…. go figure i find a great guy and it has to be like this!
well then go for it if it’s affecting you this way….Areny you already talking to him? If he wants something you have to just tell her, and get it done with, better she hear it from you..
yea i guess everyones right….i jus dont like faccing reality! my friends are important to me and shes one of my closet but theres something bout this guy i just dont wanna forget!
Someone just help me out with this….
How do i start that conversation with her
Just let her know how you feel about things. I was in a similar situation recently only it wasn’t a close friend and i didn’t know how she felt but in any case, even if your friend doesn’t feel alright with it at first i’m sure she will understand eventually that unfortunately we all just don’t get to decide who we click with and who we just don’t. Remind your friend about something that one of her other crushes has done or said that was nice recently and try to get her to remember that she DOES have other interests.
you know what ….em there olny your best friend until some one better comes along somone you relate with more like her crush you need to say …. her she wont be mad if she is really your best friend think about it your not wrong she is
I think that you should tell your friend that you like this guy and if she doesnt understand that sometimes people dont always choose who they fall for and that you couldnt help it the she’s not a true friend. I’ve had crushes on my best friends BOYFRIENDS! And they understood so if she is your best friend she’ll be fine with it. And like your post said she has like 5 crushes and everyone knows you cant have 5 boyfriends so then there would be 4 boys that you could have and just ask her if she really likes this guy and if she doesnt like him that much got for it. Its not wrong for someone to like there best friends crushes some people cant help it. Dont worry everything happends for a reason good or bad theres always a reason.
