I like my best friend, but he's talking to me about another girl!

Question - (9 December 2010) 1 Answers - (Newest, 9 December 2010)
A female Canada age 30-35, anonymous writes:

Hey,

So basically I have feelings for my best friend, but here’s the problem. Whilst at university he has started liking this girl and they have become pretty close. As much as I don’t want to give up on my affections for him I think I have to. Now when he texts me talking about her, I don’t know what to say. I don’t know if I should encourage him to go for it or just leave things. It’s really complicated, I want to see him happy, and I thought that would involve being with me, but it’s clear that I left it too late to tell him my feelings an now he’s moved on. I still want to be his friend but the closeness he has with this other girl is really confusing me. Should I leave him alone for a while or not react when he mentions her?

It’s sad, because I thought he felt the same. He’s texting me now about how he feels guilty for accidently breaking something she owned, and how he feels sad as well. So already he treats her better than me. I don’t know how to react to these messages. I don’t know if he’s trying to make me jealous or he actually likes her? It really annoys me. Sometimes I think, ‘How can he ask me these things, surly he must have caught on by now that I really like him’ or if he is that oblivious, what advise is i meant to give?

I’m really sorry for blabbing on,

I don’t know what to do anymore,

Some advice would be real good
