They met up last week and were snogging and chatting loads. they are secretly texting each other and the ex boyfriend doesn't know anything about it. He still loves the girl and It'd break his heart if he found out.Naturally my first reaction was to tell the fella leave the girl alone as it was his mate's ex. But now knowing that they both like each other I think they should go out.They don't want to hurt the ex boyfriend because he still loves the ex girlfriend but they do want to go out with each other what should they do???

I would say it is a no go zone unless the ex/friend says that it is ok. Otherwise your friend will mostly likely lose the friendship he has. His choices are pretty much this:
-give the relationship up and keep the friendship
-go out with her and give up the friendship
-wait for the possible time when the ex is over her and would give the approval of the friend to date her

They have to be fully prepared to hurt the ex boyfriend, and lose him as any kind of friend.
That's the price.
That's also why this isn't a good idea. But there it is. If they like each other that much, they have to do the ruthless thing and get on with it and just accept that the ex boyfriend will hate them.

If I had one piece of advice for you(or your "friend")I'd suggest you(she) find your own guy..three's always a crowd even if in a "friendship".
