writes: A guy who I had been dating for nearly two years broke up with me, broke my heart. He instantly hooked up with his ex and moved in with her. After a few months and a rebound relationship which was fun but wasn't ever really going to work, I find myself thinking all the time about one of my ex-boyfriends mates, Gary. I see Gary a lot, at group parties and through mutual friends, my ex and I shared many mutual friends. I don't know what to do!Do I approach Gary and tell him how I feel but I am afraid that he will feel like he can't do anything because of my ex. My ex was always very jealous of Gary as some time ago I liked him a lot - he was always running Gary down to me and bagging him out. I'm scared Gary is too loyal a friend to my ex to ever be with me. HELP!

I agree with the first reply. The only reason your boyfriend should be upset or angry is if he still likes you but in saying that, men are different from women, men are very pally and being with one of your friends ex girlfriends is a crime to them! but its not, your boyfriend finished it with you, not the other way around! go for it girl, if Gary likes you too he will be honest with his friend. Its niehter of your faults. You and your ex werent meant to be, but maybe you and Gary are, who knows if you dont try.

The only reason your ex should have a problem with you hooking up with with his friend is if he still has feelings for you. If there is no future with you and your ex, there should be no problem with you dating his friend. Guys tend to be fake with each other so maybe he's not that loyal to your ex. You have to tell him how you feel or move on. Who knows, he may even feel the same way about you! You'll never know unless you try. By the way (not saying you have to) but the truth comes out after you have a couple drinks. It will be easier for you to bring it up to him and It will be easier for him to give you a honest response. I hope this helps!
