My problem is that i've a friend whom i've known longer than my boyfriend who's always hinted that he is interested in me but he has a girlfriend in whom he doesn't seem to be too interested. They hooked up cos she fell in love with him and he told me he said yes cos he didn't want to break her heart cos they're best friends. They haven't seen each other for the last one year. We share everything with each other. My guy doesn't have a problem with our friendship but says he feels uneasy whenever my friend is around. My friend and i know that nothing can happen between us except friendship but there seems to be something between us that doesn't quite go away. Am i crazy thinking like this?

Yes, you're absolutely crazy thinking the way you are. Your boyfriend seems a very tolerant man to put up with all this nonesense. This "friend" only got with her because she fell in love with him and he didn't want to hurt her? I've never heard such nonesense in all my life! She's so in love with him that she hasn't seen him in a year! Jeeeeeeeeze!
Sorry to be so near the knuckle love but if you are happy with your boyfriend then you should write to this friend and wish him all the luck in the world with his woman and leave it at that. Concentrate on your boyfriend and let him know you won't be communicating with this friend any more as you know he feels uneasy whenever this friend is around. Put yourself in his place... how would YOU feel if he was communicating with a female friend and felt there was "just something between them that wouldn't go away!"
Wisen up or you're going to lose the best thing that's ever happened to you!
