A male reader, EyesofJag United States +, writes (20 September 2011):

At times like these, you really have to realize many factors of a potential relationship. It wouldn't be so much of a question if you were 30 and he were 40. Sometimes, age doesn't matter, but experience in life does. You are young (not to say that he is old though...I'm 30 as well), are you willing to have a full on serious relationship at 20? Plus, realize if he feels the same way.

You obviously care about him because of the ex girlfriend thing. She doesn't seem like she has grown up. Since you guys are very good friends, you can (more than anyone) tell him that you don't think it's right they are together. It may not change much, but it'll be in his mind.

You are young and it seems as if he has always seen you as someone who is younger than him. That may be a factor in his decision to choose you. There is nothing wrong with your feelings towards him, but really realize your life and your feelings.

I have a best friend whom I started having major feelings for a few years ago. We kinda flirted but nothing ever happened. She had her 2nd baby now and I couldn't be more happier for her. I do feel I was glad I never fully said my feelings because I'm very happy she is my best friend. She is the one I turn to when I have relationship questions. She's my best friend and I love her.
