Should I tell her?

As some of you may know I’m on a quest for Love. And I think I’ve found the girl, but there’s a small detail that obstructs the usual formalities of initiating a relationship. She is spoken for… Not by an intelligent boy, but nonetheless she is his, not mine. I am very good friends with this girl, she called me her best guy friend. Which almost made my heart brake into four pieces. So, should I tell her how I feel?

i understand why you want to, and i would too, but i think you need to hold off. i understand how you feel completely, but if she has a boyfriend, dont ruin the friendship that you clearly both value for something that most likely will not happen yet. wait it out, and if you still feel the same way, go for it.

Not that I know anything about human relationships, but perhaps you should wait for this relationship to end, await an opportunity.

Telling a woman how you feel is something that only works in movies. Wait it out, wait for an opening.

Go ahead. She’ll be safer with you, but first, ask her what’s your opinion on relationships that occurs with best friends. On my opinion: the best kind.

i guess it’s better not. sounds like she doesn’t feel the same about you. telling her how you feel most likely won’t change her feelings for better

I think you should wait for their relationship to end first.

If you think your friendship is strong enough, tell her you like her and that you dont want to be going behind the other guys back but you just thought she should know.

It really depends.

Just look at the post here, I cant tell you how many times Ive seen
“My best friend likes me”

She might just like you as a friend or she might see you as potentionaly more,

Still you gotta know if your in the friend zone or if you have a chance, so I suggest you try to not to hide your feelings for her, but at the same time, dont openly put that pressure on her, be her friend right now and if this guy screws up you gotta be ready to jump right in.

Wait and see how things go with her and the boyfriend. Don’t interfere with their relationship and continue being her friend. In the main while , keep looking to fulfill your quest of love because you might actually end up finding someone that you will have even stronger feelings for.

Wish you best of luck.
