I have a good friend(male) who I have feelings for and him for me. But he has a girlfriend who is quite a bit older than him and who he lives with, so we have not allowed anything to happen, It wouldnt be right. I am keeping a bit of distance between us, I think it has upset him but it seems the best thing as it does upset me a bit.

But what puzzles me is that he isnt happy in the relationship, and they just go through the 'motions'. I cant fathom out why he stays with her? I'm not saying there is anything wrong with her but if most the happiness has gone why do people stay in relationships?? He seems to work shifts and go to the pub to avoid her. Im not going to over analyse it but I cant work it out!! Any opinions welcome....

If you had read the question properly you would read that i was leaving them alone and the question was not why doesnt he want me but why does ANYONE stay in a relationship that was seemingly over..

Never, ever interfere in the relationships of others. You don't know what's going on between the two of them, they may be having troubles, he may just be stringing you along for the attention.

All you need to know is that if he wanted to date you he would. He clearly is more interested and invested in his existing relationship, so that alone should tell you to move on and leave the both of them be.
