A male Australia age 36-40, anonymous writes:

I want to know how different people respond to situations like this. Heres the issue.

Guy A, Girl A and Girl B are both your good friends. Good as in the few of your always hang out together. whether it is a gathering, group studies or parties, this few close friends of yours is definately there.

Guy A and Girl A have been in a relation for quiet sometime. After about 2 years Guy A started to fancy Girl B.

What will you do/think if:

1. Guy A and Girl A remains in relationship but you(including your group of close friends) know that Guy A fancy Girl B; and

2. Guy A break up with Girl A but not getting into relationship with Girl B and you people also knew that Guy A fancy Girl B; and

3. Guy A breakup with Girl A and get together with Girl B.

What will you do/think/treat each of them?

1. I wouldn't think that it would be fair on girl A because if guyA likes someone other than his girlfriend (whether already a close friend or not) he should not be seeing her.

2. Well...if he broke up with his girlfriend he would have to have given her a reason for it - rather than leaving her feeling stranded. He would need to be honest and tactful to her. So long as they manage to stay friends then there shouldn't be any problem of how to treat them.

3. The same goes here as no 2 really. He would have to be very tactful but honest and rather than judging them it would be best for you to comfort and support both of them.

...Hopefully girl A shouldn't have too hard a feelings for guy A whatever he chooses to do - and provided they remain friends - you shouldn't have a problem with it. If one of them hurts the other, then I guess you would have to make you're own decision there.

Just continue to be a good friend to both of them.

happytobe agony auntWell first off, don't get mad at any of them. It's their own personal decision of what they decide to do and get angry will do nothing but accidentally make you pick sides. Comfort Girls A, she is definitely going to need all the support she can get. Be happy for Guy A and Girl B as a new couple, but be sure not to live Girl A out of things (that is if she still wants to be included). Seriously, Good Luck!
