She says she has told me things she has never told anyone else and I felt we were drawing close. During this time she went on a couple dates and there was rarely a second date let alone a third date. She would tell me about the poor fools after the fact and it would be a topic for discussion.In the last month she met a man that she likes a lot. They have gone out many times and she even invited him over to her place which is a first since her divorce. I am happy for her but I am also jealous. I told her I was jealous and she thought that was sweet. I am trying to be a good friend but I also have feelings for her. Overall, I am happy for her but at the same time it is painful for me. She still confides in me and sometimes I hear things I don't want to hear. What do I do? Do I keep being her friend or do I tell her how I really feel?
