Well... I have been mates with this boy "Mat" for quite a while and bout 2 months ago he told me he loved me, the problem was i had a boyfriend. Rumours spread my boyfriend found out nd after lots of arguements we split up. about a week after that "Mat" told me that he didnt love me... he said he thought he did but he realises that its not love. i wasnt to angry i was just upset that i had lost my boyfriend and my mates for him.

We stayed mates and become quite close. i got a new boyfriend about a few ago and now hes doin the same agian. Last week he told me he loved me and he keeps sayin he does. I know people have told my boyfriend already i just hope he ignors teh silly things people say.

Normally i would tell "Mat" to back off a bit but ive started to liek him to. i like him that much i am constantly thinking about him. I spend most of my time iwth him and i dont know where i would be aith out him.

My question is what do i do to stop things gettin worse... what would be the best thing to do ??

I think you and mat deserve each other. Not only does he say he likes you when he cant have you but you like him when you cant have him. Obviousley you dont love your boyfriend or you would not be playing these silly games with mat.

Frank B Kermit agony auntHe only likes you when he can not have you...he is playing a game like a scared little boy, and you are falling for it. What possible value does he even offer as a friend that you would keep him around at all?

You say you "like him" but don't identify yourself this with love so perhaps you should wait a while and judge well what you have presently before you giving it away.

Sounds like choosing between the bird in your hand and the sparrow on the fence; this "Mat" sounds very undecided. What makes you believe he's truthful this time? I think in his case it may have been the psychological fear of losing what became of anothers', but the fact he wasn't constant that time is an alarm. If you do like him, before risking again you should have a serious conversation with him and ask him for example since when he has acknowledged the feeling, what does he see in a possible future...

reatachi agony auntOkay, this is a strange situation! I would say talk to him, ask him what's up. Maybe he's afraid you don't feel the same way? You also might want to talk to your current boyfriend about it, because if he hears these things from the wrong people, words can be twisted and you could end up in a difficult situation. So talk to both of them (I wouldn't suggest doing it at the same time), and try to straighten some things out. Then make a decision - current boyfriend or "Mat".

Best of Luck!
