A female United States age 26-29, anonymous writes:

Ok, so I really wanna start dating this guy who I really like and he really seems to like me.

The only problem is that he dated my best friend for a long time, even though it was a year ago. But she broke up with him.

I have asked for her approval because its important. She said she doesnt care and as long as im happy, blah,blah. I know she still has feelings for him.

I still feel like im being a bad friend but the guy is amazing. I will never get over him 3

ugh, i hope that makes sense.

help? thanks.

Addie agony auntI know how you feel. Been there done that. Well if your friend, said it was okay go ahead. But if she's not comfortable with it talk to her and tell her you like this guy and you really want her approval. Hope this helps.

if your friend said that she dont care then see as she dont care and leave it that way. as long as you asked her for approval then i think its ok for you to be with that guy. do you trust him and your friend?

Jmo agony auntUnfortunately these things happen... a lot. and unfortunately, it doesn't go away, and unfortunately, as you get older it gets even more complex. sorry for the buzz-kill. On a lighter note, I don't think you would be a bad friend for pursuing a relationship with this guy, but the best piece of advice I could give you is to start platonic relationship with him first and observe how your friend reacts to it. Then you can asses the situation from there. Hope this helps. -Jmo
