About a year ago, my friend's girlfriend left him. I didnt fancy her at the time, but a few months later I started to notice her. I decided to leave it for a few more months, so everyone could forget about her relationship with my friend.

We've recently become very close, but I haven't actually told anyone that I like her. Last week, my friend's new girlfriend left him after a pretty serious relationship. Now he's always flirting with his ex (the one I like). He thinks that she likes him, and says that he still has feelings for her. He says he's going to enjoy the single life for a while now, and make a desicion later on about his ex (the one I like).

I don't know if she actually likes him, because she is very nice with everyone she knows. For the same reason, I'm also not sure if she likes me. I don't know what to do, the situation is really getting me down. I don't want to hurt anyone, but I feel for this girl in a way I haven't felt for anyone before.

Jadzia1127 agony auntIf you like her then do something! Not wanting to hurt anyone is a good idea but it shows a lack of a backbone to just sit and watch someone get hurt, again.

Andy J agony auntMate be very very carefull. The chances are of her liking you more than a friend are very slim. She's still going to have strong feelings for her x (your mate), but if you try and advance on her it wont be good.

She'll either blow you off instantly and then the next thing you no u'll have a knock at your door with 5 lads outside and you'll get a punch in the teeth quicker than you could say ouch!

Or she'll just tell you straight, that she doesnt like you like that.

My advice is to stay clear, its not worth messing up a friendship over this. Its happened to me once i split with my fiance for a day and one of my "so-called" mates tryed it on, put it this way mate, he was eating through a straw for 6 weeks.

Stay clear.....move on!
