writes: I broke up with my ex a while ago but have developed strong feelings for the guy I share a house with, who is also my ex's friend and technically my landlord. My ex is aware of my feelings as it all came out in our final arguement. He is insisting that I leave the house I live in and my associations within his circle of friends. There is only three months left of my tenancy because my landlord and guy I have fallen for is leaving the country in September.I have no idea if he feels the same way. I need suggestions for the following; a) should I move out knowing that this would financially really leave him in the lurch? 2) tell him how I feel? NB. I am not sure whether I should do both at the same time as I don't relish the idea of serving out one month's notice in such close quarters if he dosn't feel the same. But, my ex is a loud mouth and if I don't tell, he certainly will.

Whats the worst that could happen if you tell him you like him and have a bit of a crush on him - if it were me i would be flattered - i mean your not asking him to marry and have kids with you. Let him know that its a complement and that if he doesn't feel the same way then thats fine and that you hope you can still be mates. I really think you should tell your ex where to stick it nobody has the right to put you in a position like this. Afterall i know it sounds harsh but its got nothing to do with him anymore!
