Question - (18 February 2010) 2 Answers - (Newest, 25 February 2010)
A female United States age 30-35, anonymous writes:

My ex and I were together for about four years, and he has always had a problem with how close I am to my best friend (boy). Everyone around us always thought that me and him would end up together but it never crossed our minds. His ex was my friend and they broke up for about 3 years now. He knows everything about me, I know everything about him.

We both started having feelings for each other, and i honestly, love how things are with me and him. To me-things are perfect. We had a little trouble adjusting to the fact that we romantically have feelings for one another but we are there now. He says he loves me and i know that this is everything i have ever wanted in a relationship. He is sweet, kind, strong, and he makes me better overall.

But his ex (also my friend) wants to get back with him and i feel like he still has feelings for her but he doesn't want to realize it. He says that he doesn't...but I do not believe it. I love him, and i do not want to lose him as my best friend or my boyfriend.

How do I know for sure where things are??? How do I know he doesn't have feelings for his ex and that he is sincere about 'us'???

This is verified as being by the original poster of the question

No she doesn't know. and i do not feel like it's for me to tell her. I think he should do, given their history and everything. I told him i do not mind if he tells her, but he is not; which has me questioning how committed he is to us. And I do know what to tell him because i do not want to hurt him or lose him as my friend??

ummmmmm does she know your dating..because if shes trying to get back with him and shes your friend... wow shes low... and well since he has been your bestfriend for so long i dont think its wrong for you to date him ..your friend wil probably get mad ..but its sorta diffrent since he has been your bestfriends...the situation would be diffrent if it was her ex and you two just started talking but you two have longer history then them ..so just tell your friend how you feel..if she gets mad oh well it will suck but if you love him its worth it..but make sure your honest with her tell her dont hide it cause then your low...so thats my thoughts..you may lose her but ...
