Should I tell my friend my crush gave me his number, when he's her crush too?

Question - (22 June 2017) 2 Answers - (Newest, 29 June 2017)
A female United States age 22-25, anonymous writes:

The guy I've been trying to talk to all year - and had a major crush on for two years - has just told me that he's wanted to be friends for a long time, but didn't know how to do it. In fact, he even gave me his phone number and email addresses. As you can imagine, I'm in absolute raptures...but with one problem. My friend has had a crush on him for a while and I've never told her about my feelings. To tell the truth, she's rather clingy and also gets jealous, but because I'm closer to him than her she's asked me about him. Lately I've realized how annoying she can be but before that, she was almost my best friend and I told her whatever she wanted to know about him. What should I do? Now that I'll be texting him, she'll want to know what his number is, what he says, and if I can talk to him about her. However, I haven't told her. But if she finds out, she'll be shocked I didn't mention it when I knew she liked him. Then she'll know that I like him. Please, please give advice...I don't know what to do!

aunt honesty agony auntYou need to decide what is more important to you, your friend or your crush? NEVER give out someone else's personal details.

Denizen agony auntTell your friend but do not give her his number or email. You should be careful about handing over anyone's personal details. If he wants to give them to her that is his business.

Of course this may cause a rift between you. It is like that when you start dating and you have a close friend. One relationship or the other has to take a back seat.

There are other boys out there for her. The one you are talking to likes you not her. It is a life lesson. You can't always get what you want, and, I might add, it would be wrong if you did.
