writes: I have been developing feelings for my boyfriends best friend. Lets say his name is Ryan. Well, Ryan is also my closest girlfriends ex-boyfriend. They had a rough relationship and broke up on bad terms. Anyways, I know I could never be with this guy because I would hurt my friend and my boyfriend, and I honestly don't even know is "Ryan" likes me back. But I think about him more than I do my own boyfriend. It really upsets me that I'm capable of this. I feel like I'm cheating on my boyfriend. I am in love with my boyfriend, but I can't get rid of these feelings for "Ryan". I think they keep getting stronger and I don't know what to do to get them to go away. Any advice?? And I can't talk to anybody about this because my parents don't know about my BF for other reasons, and I don't want to burden "ryan" with telling him I like him, and I definitely don't want to tell my friend or boyfriend because it would really hurt them both.

Secondly, you're right -- you are emotionally cheating on your boyfriend.
You need to not spend any time at all with Ryan and spend good, quality time with your boyfriend.
