dirtball agony auntYou missed your window. You can tell her you want to date and see what she says. She may say that she's happy with her BF, but they'll break up again. Make up/break up relationships always run that cycle. You'll have another chance if you just wait.

alternaterealities agony auntEver feel kind of depressed, so you go and buy something to cheer yourself up?

Maybe a video game or a movie. It's a good temporary distraction from what had you down, but the thing you were depressed about is still there.

Unfortunately, sometimes people can be that thing to distract. We all end up there and will probably all put someone there.

She probably does like you, but when someone is emotionally engaged with another person, you're going to be the rebound boy to that comfort item. If you didn't have feelings for her and it was just a meaningless good time might not be as ugly, but since you apparently do have feelings for her, this is not a good thing for you at all.

Don't be the ping pong ball. You need to walk away from it and let her take care of her personal affairs. If and when she figures out what she's doing with her boyfriend with certainty and if you're still around... give it a shot. Chances are you'll be off on your own adventure by then not looking back.

If this girl has got back with her boyfriend after making you feel things were moving forwad for you too, then she doesn't sound like the most loyal of girls me. Protect yourself walk away from this before you get hurt, she can't go back and forth between you and her boyfriend its not fair on either of you. You are able to stay friends with her thats great but don't wait around for something more if she can pick you up and drop you this quickly now what stops her doing it again?

Hope you work it out
