Hi agony aunts/uncles. Here's my situation...

I just got out of a relationship of 1 year. It started out somewhat mutual but then it became me breaking up with him. I had been feeling off for a while, at least 2 months, and was already done with the relationship. Don't get me wrong, he's a great guy, and I care about him I just can't be with him any more. We don't click.

Now, a friend of mine got out of a two year relationship a few months ago. He was also unhappy and they didn't click any more.

We started hanging out because we live really close to each other and we can relate on the whole newly single, unhappy in old relationship thing. I had a crush on him because, well, he's adorable, nice, funny, and extremely polite. I couldn't help but like him. Come to find out from a friend that he likes me too, and I get really happy about this, even though I had no intention to start anything because he's a really good friend. It still makes me smile to know he thinks I'm attractive, because compliments are nice haha.

Then we're hanging out on Friday with a few friends, playing video games, listening to music and he starts playing with my hair and asks if it's okay that he's flirty. I say it's okay and we end up kissing/cuddling. Then yesterday we hung out all day, and it was such a great time. We just get along so well! We kept talking until 3am and almost fell asleep cuddling before he drove me home.

Issue: everyone I know is already judging me for hanging out with him so much- much less the whole kissing thing. He's a year younger than me and he's my best friend's boyfriend's best friend, so we're running the risk of being really awkward in the future. Nkt to mention I don't want to make my ex feel like I left him for this guy because I did NOT.

Sorry if this is a really weird description of the situation, and thank you for reading! Any input is greatly appreciated.

LoveMeNena agony auntIf you truly like him then don't hold back. It shouldn't matter what other people think. Everyone deserves to be happy. Take it slow with this guy and see where it takes you. If you are still concerned that your ex thinks you left him for this new guy then confront him and tell him the truth. As for anyone else, everyone talks and there will always be gossip. Ignore it, move on, and trust me it will blow over. I hope this helped (:

Best of luck!
