Question - (26 December 2013) 1 Answers - (Newest, 27 December 2013)
A female New Zealand age 26-29, *earingOctopus writes:

Recently one of my good guy friends, call him A, confided in my best-friend that he liked me. He also said that he was confused because he also like my other friend.

If they started dating, I would probably be pretty upset, but I would be able to get over it.

The only trouble is, this New Years, we're having a kind of get together. I'm in charge of organising who's invited and giving them the details.

Last time we had one of these things, A and I got really close to eachother. We had another one of these things, but we invited my other friend, the one he kind of likes, and nothing really happened between us.

I know it's mean, but I was considering not inviting the other girl he likes, I think him and I are to the point where we might actually start dating. But I'd feel so horrible to my other friend for not inviting her.

She doesn't really like A, but would probably accept going out with him, most likely in an attempt to make her ex jealous.

I just want opinions on this. Should I twist this to get the best opportunity for myself, or are my friends more important?

Honeypie agony auntI would not exclude a friend because the boy YOU like might like her more. That is being PETTY.

Do you really want to date a guy who "might" rather date your friend but settles for you because YOU are there and she is not?

I'd say invite them both.
