A female Australia age 30-35, anonymous writes:

Why on earth would a guy who likes you, not tell you that his friend who your with has a girlfriend? I just don't understand it! Why would they let you get hurt and feel that way!?! Surely if the guy liked you, then he would tell you so you don't get your feelings hurt and be in that situation once you found out.... Please someone explain!

Honeypie agony auntMaybe he thought you knew. Or that someone else had told your or would tell you.

Honestly I understand the hurt, but the only one you should really harbor any resentment towards is your BF!

This is verified as being by the original poster of the question

I understand what you have both said, but he isn't best friends with the guy, i don't really think they are that close? Just they hang out in the same group of friends.

And you ask what what would i of done and would i believe him. Well yes, i would. I didn't know he liked me at the time, i found out a day or so after. So he had no worry that it would of been out of jealously.

Really i just thought if he liked me that much, he would tell me before someone else did and wouldn't want to let me get hurt! Like i did...

And if he had told you?

Would you have believed him, or would you have assumed that he was lying because he likes you?

Many good friends often say things, but they're often not listened to. Perhaps he's had a problem of not being listened to before, and assumed you'd see this guy for what he was. Believe me, many people have selective hearing when it comes to love, which means that often the best course of action is to stay out of it. I think this is what your friend did. He most likely said nothing, because he wasn't sure whether you'd believe him or assume he was trying to purposely break you and your boyfriend up.
