Lately, I have been ignorant of the fact that I like my best friend a little more than is appropriate.

Until he admitted to me on MSN that he liked me. That was three days ago. For the past three days I’ve begun to realize that I’m completely in love with this guy. Considering I have a boyfriend of six months, who coincidentally is one of his best friends, we tried to act normally. But I can’t handle it. I get nervous around him, I go completely crazy. And, I suddenly don’t feel the way about my boyfriend anymore. I don’t want to hurt anyone, but I don’t know what to do anymore. I love my boyfriend, he is a complete sweetheart, but I’m not in love with him anymore. Whereas he is crazy about me. I’m pretty sure I want to be with my best friend too, but I don’t even know if that will work out. Do I break things off with my boyfriend and destroy not only our relationship but also that of his and his friend? This situation is tearing us apart..

Two boyfriends are better than one.

Make a decision quickly. Don’t string them along, and make sure if you choose the other guy over ur current one give a good explanation to your boyfriend ensuring that it wasnt anything he did. Nothing could be worse than losing them both & its more likely that they could patch up their friendship rather than fight over you ‘bros before ho’s’ and all that, dont mean to b crude just my opinion.

Whatever you do. Make sure that you are actually feeling stronger for your best friend than your boyfriend before you break it off. Make sure you’re just not feeling a new sense of attraction because he likes you.

So basically. If you are just going crazy for him because it’s new and exciting and you feel really pretty because he likes you all of a sudden. Then. . .I don’t know.

If you are not in love with your boyfriend, end it. Don’t worry too much about his feelings because he’ll move on. Do what you need to do
