A key component, his relationship with his girlfriend, whom I've fallen in love with over time. I'd had a crush on her as long as I can remember and Im pretty sure its love. Whats worse for me is I set the two of them up in the first place and they're seemingly perfect for each other. They've been dating for a little over a year now and seeing them together in pictures or in person just drives me crazy.I love them both and they've been so helpful to me in my times of need, they're truly the best friends I have. But I'm hoplessly infatuated with this girl and I cant stand being around them without feeling pain. I've also been dealing with depression and anger issues this past year so that has not helped. Also I'd started a relationship with this girl's sister and that had been going ok, but shes not really what Im looking for in a girlfriend, although I care about her greatly, I love her sister. I dont know what to do anymore, Im ruining my life and it hurts. Anything anyone has to offer is greatly appreciated. If you have anymore questions or need anymore details please do not hesitate to ask. Thank you internet.

This is what you should want for them, even if it's not what you want for yourself. Privately sulking about it, especially in their company, doesn't do you any good. It's just going to cause you more heartache. You need to try to hang out with other people and meet other girls, because the more you hang around the two of them, the more it's going to hurt you. If it's at all possible, talk to the guy about it. He's your best friend, so he should be able to listen and understand. The two of you can talk about it and figure out how to deal with the situation without ruining the friendship.

You can't do anything. She's interested in your friend NOT you. Go find a good one who wants to be with you.

Wow you should go out date other people. This is a love triangle or maybe more. If you cared for her why matchmake her up with someone else this appears to be a case of wanting what you cant have. Thats what I would do go out a mingle while my earring jingle its fun and you can network plus find you someone else to be infactuated with.
