You can't decide to date a player but not get played. He will play you just like the rest of them. It has nothing to do with how much or little he might like you.

dirtball agony auntThere's a saying among guys; "Bro's before ho's." I'm not feeling creative enough at the moment to flip that for women, but it should work the same way. Friendships typically last much longer than romantic relationships, especially at your age. If your friend isn't comfortable with you dating her ex, as a good friend, you should drop it.

Besides, you said he's a player. Players are bad news anyway. She's doing you a favor by telling you to stay clear of him.

xanthic agony auntHow is it okay to fool around with someone's (ex?)-boyfriend, as long as you don't date him?

The attitude both of you have towards dating is worrying, and idiotic to be completely honest. I don't care who this guy is, you shouldn't be taking turns with him. Is he really worth this much trouble? I doubt it. There are plenty of other boys out there, forget about this one.

Rather than settling for just fooling around, you need to step back and realize your own self-worth. You'll only mean one thing to guys like him, which is sex. Nothing else. You have more to offer than that, don't let anyone tell you otherwise.
