writes:When my best friend's boyfriend found out I was bi, he started hanging out with me more and told me he was questioning his sexuality. That was three months ago. Last week he told me he didn't just like me, he loves me and that he was going to break up with my best friend. Even though I told him to stay with her, that i like someone else, he broke up with her the next day. I feel horrible because she's been my best for 11 years now, and she was devastated when he broke up with her.I have no idea how I'm going to talk to her about what happened or what to do the next time he sees me.

Your best friend deserves the truth. And you should tell her because at the moment what’s probably upsetting her more than anything is having absolutely no idea why her boyfriend has broken up with her seemingly out of the blue. You told him nothing was going to happen between you and he still broke it off with her. That suggests that the real issue here is his questioning of his sexuality. Maybe he did have feelings for you but it could just as easily have been some-one else. You’ve not done anything wrong and you tried to help save a relationship you knew meant a lot to your best friend, so get her alone and tell her that you can shed some light on why they broke up, then tell her everything.
I wish you all the very best.
