Hey people,

I seriously need help .. Ive recently fallen for a good friend of mine but we really shouldnt go out.. There is almost everything wrong with this relationship..

*She is my ex girlfriends best mate

*She is my best mates ex girlfriend

*Ive just got out of a big relationship to mess a bit of fun

*Im leaving in august for 3 and a half years to join the marines

But we kissed a few days ago and i cant stop thinking about it. Shes in my head all the time and i dont know what to do. She makes me feel like a small boy in a sweetie shop..

Does anyone think theres any point in having a go at things? Or should we leave it as just carrying about ?

Hey people, just thought I'd comment on that last persons message.. In particular, no. 4...

At the moment i feel like if i cant be with her, whats the point in being here.. Its not as dramatic as i put it, but i cant find an easier way to say it.. I would never ask her to break friendships, and the last thing i want is to loose my best friend, but practically every minute i think about her, i dont know what to do..

1 If you want to keep your best friend do not mess around with his ex.

2. If you want her to keep her best friend do not encourage her to mess around with her best friend's ex.

3. If you are leaving for a long time she shouldn't be asked to destroy friendships for you...even if you don't ask in so many words.

4. If this all gets messy (and I strongly suspect it will) you will have an additional distraction when you leave to go to the marines...this could be very very dangerous.
