I'm falling for my ex's best friend!

Question - (14 December 2010) 2 Answers - (Newest, 15 December 2010)
A female United Kingdom age 30-35, *eahLoveLost writes:

My ex and I broke up Sept 2009, and hes been with someone else for over a year. I still love him and want him back, and we talk a lot, but obviously hes with someone else.

Over the past several months I've started talking and becoming close to the guy my ex considers his best friend, even though they don't talk a lot. He lives in portugal but comes back over a fair bit, we talk almost every day, I didn't intentionally try to befriend my exs best mate but now hes one of my best friends.

Problem is sometimes I feel really attracted to him, and hes the only guy I have felt anything for since my ex. I know I still love and want my ex, and if this were any other guy I'd go for it, knowing that my ex is with someone else too, and that if I did end up getting back with my ex it wouldn't get in the way. But because its his best friend it might really get in the way, even though hes been with someone else for over a year, and if me and my friend have a few times together or something and he develops feelings for me and I end up back with one of his best friends I'll loose the friendship :S HELP!

from my point of view it is not cool to date your ex's friends much less to be his best friend i think that is so gross what you guys had should be between y'll and i think you can still be friends with him but try to date someone that is not his friend or related to him ............good luck

petina1 agony auntWould you know for sure whether your ex has truly got over you. That theres absolutely no chance of you getting back together again. If not then you must live your life and go with what you want to do and not put it on hold. Your ex has made his choice really he's with someone else, does he know you want him back?. Like i say if it's not meant to be then you must look after yourself. Relationships that end are very upsetting for the one who didn't want that but its just one of those things in life we have to try and get through. But seriously first try to do the research and find out if the ex wants you back or not, if not, then go and get his mate. Good Luck!
