My friend is now going out with the guy I fancy!

Question - (30 March 2009) 3 Answers - (Newest, 30 March 2009)
A female United Kingdom age 30-35, anonymous writes:

I have really really fancied this guy I know through friends for about six months. Recently I met him at a gig and we got on great and I got the impression he liked me.

My best friend (who knows him quite well) found out I fancied him. She said she did too. She asked if I minded if she tried to make something happen between him and her. I lied and said I didn't mind and I didn't fancy him as much as I used to.

I didn't really think she would get anywhere and i also didnt want to be selfish.

However since the gig they have been close and now they are going out! It's made me feel gutted because I didn't really get to know him properly.

Should I still try and get to know him as a mate? Should I try and make something happen between us or tell my mate(his girlfriend) that I still like him?

Help!

Whether you lied or not, the point is your friend is going out with a guy you told her you liked. This shouldn't happen. This happened to me two years ago, but the thing is they are still going out and I decided to accept that. I now fancie someone else, but the point is if i carried on liking him we would have lost our friendship. At the end of the day it's upto you to be the bigger person and leave it. But one piece of advice? Don't fall out with the girls over a guy...

Easier said than done, but again you need to try your best. What she did was wrong, but you do need to accept it and move on.

Good Luck xox
