A female United Kingdom age 30-35, anonymous writes:

My best friend went out with this boy for about 14 months. They broke up about 4 months ago and she was heartbroken. She still likes him and he sometimes flirts with her but they are unlikely to get back together.

Recently, I have got feelings for the boy and he sometimes shows them back. I don't know what to do as I cannot hurt my best friend but i really like him.

PrincipleOfEvil agony auntWell, what I think you need to consider and I’m sure you already have is that this could end your friendship with this girl. It’s only been four months and I’m sure she’s still pretty hurt. How long have you known her? If you decide to pursue a relationship with this guy one of the biggest mistakes you can make is not telling her and hoping that she won’t find out. So if that is the case you will have to tell he, preferably before you even try anything with him. If you do loose her friendship and start something with him, after some time you may break up. Once that happens you may not be able to get your friend back, how are you going to feel? Will you regret it? You need to reflect on the consequences. What is more important, your friendship or a possible relationship with this guy?
