it's definitely hard,i like my ex boyfriends friend but he has a girlfriend and I know that is a problem and KNOW that I shouldn't be doing it because if my boyfriend was cheating on me I think I would deserve to know! but I still like him and I enjoy talking to him.problem is! He would rather hook up with my BEST FRIEND! before his friend does? should I just forget him all together or should I still talk to him but set up boundaries?
Update: i don't even talk to the guy anymore,he has been through so many ups and downs with his life. as have I. I still love my ex,and that's where I stand right now. Thanks for all of your advice

Games are so stupid...along with cheating, lying etc. You said it already, you would want to know if your boyfriend was cheating, therefore you don't want to be in her situation. The rest is kind of confusing with what you said. All in all why do you wanna be a boyfriend stealer..it will get you a bad name and you won't have any friends. You're 16! There are so many other guys out there and you have so much time to get a boyfriend, so why even try to do something like that?! If he wanted to date you before he started dating her, he would have done so more than likely..but for whatever reason he's with her (and if he's cheating he's a loser...and would do the same to you). Why cause drama?
I agree,and that would suck if everyone found out(I live in a sort of small town) and I would feel horrible if I was the girlfriend in this situation! This problem is becoming more of a pain in the ass than it ever should have,thanks! I can tot. see this from another perspective now. - 7 months ago

No prob :-) (and you def. don't wanna start bs in small towns lol, it equals nothing but trouble!) - 7 months ago
Move on. He's taken. How would you like it if you were with him or any guy for that matter and some girl was in your position trying to get in between?
You shouldn't do anything. Being a hook up will give you a bad reputation and even some heart ache, and you certainly can't have a relationship with him: if he cheats with you he'll probably cheat on you.
The second half of your question is kind of confusing but from what I got he doesn't really sound like a guy you would want to get serious with. You said yourself that you wouldn't want to be in the girlfriends position but in liking him aren't you kind of working on getting there?
It would probably be better for you to just let it go and stop talking to him for the most part. Being friendly if you pass him on the street is one thing but going out of your way to chat probably won't end well for you. Most people have a really hard time being just friends with a person they have feelings for.
dont not talk to him. if you stop talking to him all together he could get suspicious. but if you and him are hanging out and he tries kissing you or something while he still has a girlfriend, push him away. be like uhm don't you have a girlfriend you could be kissing all up on instead of me. honestly in my opinion you two tried going out and now you guys are obviously not going out no more, so down the line somewhere something didn't work out. if you guys were truly meant to be then you would be with him still. I believe in destination and hunny your destination isn't with him.
stop talk to him for whileeee~~~ a longggg while untill you don't feel anything with him anymore. don't break other couple. because what you have got to pay back for everything you have done! be good if you want to have a good life!
that IS complicated lol i do think you should just forget about him and move on, which I know will be hard! but you'll be better off! the other option as you said is to set up boundaries, and if you can't see yourself without him, then that's an idea but just be aware in time everything will become tougher! good luck xx
i would wait till he's over the girlfriend or get a new bf. he could just be wanting to have sex and that's it. or he is just playing with your mind. it's not official, so to not get hurt, avoid.
Don't mess with anyone that is already in a relationship with someone else. It makes drama and how would you feel if some chick liked your boyfriend and was talking to him trying to steal him away from you? You'd be p*ssed without a doubt, so respect his girlfriend and let their relationship play out on its own.
I would void it. You're ex-boyfriend doesn't seem like a very nice guy. If the guy that you like is his best friend, that's bad sign because it means they share a lot of same interest, same habits, and the same thoughts of life style. When people spend a lot of time with each other, things seem to rub off. If he cheats on his girlfriend for you, he's going to do the same to you too.
It just doesn't sound like a good idea to me. If you really like him, stay as friends and get to know him better but keep your distance.
For starters don't date your ex's friends. That's a head ache you don't need. Most friends are a lot alike and if it didn't work out with one why would it work out with the other? It will just cause a bigger mess than he is even worth. Forget about him.
As with Males and Females, I have a policy, Bros before Ho's. or Ho's before Bro's, whatever the case might be.
I refuse to look at my ex's friends as potential ANYTHING, only because I don't want to offend him or make him jealous or make our friendship (or not) awkward. Getting with your ex's friend makes them feel like you've attacked them personally, I mean look at the other way, I'm sure you feel very wronged if your ex wanted to or was f***ing your BFF.
Since this is the ex's friend, forget the dude, you're only going to piss off your ex for dating his friend, you're going to be pissed off at the BFF for "He would rather hook up with my BEST FRIEND! before his friend does?"
I'm not exactly sure of what you're asking. I'm assuming you like the ex's friend, the ex's friend likes your best friend, but your ex boyfriend likes her too.
If your friend had any respect for you, she wouldn't hook up with your ex, and if you had any respect for your ex, you wouldn't hook up with his friend. Because it's stupid. It makes everything awkward.
Let the BFF and his BFF go at it, go find someone else. Forget about his buddy.

This story is from my heart. First, I'd like to introduce myself, my name is Jesse.Sometimes we are faced with making decisions that we may not even know we are making in life.This story is an example...
As a note, I have changed the names of the people involved to protect their privacy.I still remember my first girlfriend. A goofy girl who had a reputation at the young age of 12. I did not realize...
