raiders agony auntI think you shouldn't mess with him, you will be the rebound girl. I think you should work in fixing your relationship with your boyfriend. Let your crush be a crush and don't act on it.

I can't say what to do about your man's friend. Apparently, he has his own issues to work out.

As far as you and your man are concerned, I think you guys need to split up. I know there are kids involved, but its no good to any of you if your heart isn't with your partner. Think about it. It's selfish to stay with someone out of obligation. You might be keeping your partner from finding real love, too. Perhaps counseling would benefit the both of you.

i think that maybe you should think about how betrayed your boyfriend of 7 years would be if he knew how you felt! you would be hurting alot of people if you got with your boyfriends best friend. i think you owe it to your boyfriend, your children and yourself to forget about these feelings. what if you approached his best friend to ask how he felt and he didnt feel the same way?? he might be loyal to his best mate and tell him the things you've said.

i just think you should try and get over these feelings and try improving your current relationship.

Isa123 agony auntThese feelings are obviously eating away inside of you.

This is a "what if" moment you could possibly look back to many years from now if you never did anything. But it sounds more like a risk than taking a chance...

Either way, right now he's going through serious relationship issues of his own. He's down and broken, and you don't want to be treated like the rebound girl. And worse, he may not even feel the same way you do about him.

My advice, is focus on your own relationship. Before you make a huge decision, be extremely sure that you love his best friend more than you love your own boyfriend. What keeps attracting you to your boyfriend anyway?

Good luck sweetie.
