Search Results: second chance with a boyfriend

I met this girl, we got on amazingly well, had so much fun on our first date, had so much in common and talked for hours. I walked her home and halfway there she kissed me, I then kissed her when I dropped her off and said I had a great time and would like to do it again. I messaged her and we arranged to meet up for a second date, however the day before she asked if we could postpone, I the suggested another day, and said that if she doesn't want to meet, we didn't have to and to just tell me. However, she said she really did, and that she likes me, something I said back, but that her ex, had expressed a desire to get back together, however she said he was an asshole and she always makes mistakes when it comes to him. She the said she didn't know what to do, but didn't think it would end up happening. I felt like I can't just tell her to be with me because then I sound like a dick, so I said to do what's best for her and not mine or his feelings. She then decided to give him another chance to see if he can prove he's changed. Should I have told her that I really like her and would love to see how things went with us or did I do the right thing? We are now just friends, although her boyfriend is really jealous, and so it's becoming a lot harder to stay friends. I still like her and my friends think she still has feelings for me too.
