Best friend's "ex"

[candabear17]

I'm really interested in this guy and he's interested in me. The only problem is he dated my best friend but only for a week and a half. She's had a serious relationship since then and is currently pursuing another guy she likes. I asked her what she would think and she said she doesn't care but idk if she meant it or not. As of right now, he and I are friends with benefits. So what I'm wondering is, is it wrong for me to be involved with him?

Her fault if it bothers her. You asked her, she said she didn't care. If she was lying, that's all her problem and not your's. So go on ahead.

Go for it.

If she says she doesn't mind, and you really find it hard to resist this fellow, go for it. Just don't mention much of your relationship around your friend, hide certain posts on fb concerning him from her, just tread lightly and be respectful.

Hey, it's your love life not hers, if she has a problem maybe you should explain this to her

That helps a lot. Thank you all :)

First of all you both like each other, so you can't stop love! Second you did a smart thing telling your friend, because a lot of friendships in teenage years are broken because of relationships with other people. Because she said she's fine with it, so go ahead! But yeah be careful around her with him, since you never know what she will act when he is with her best friend. But other wise, go ahead!

Thank you. He told me he doesn't want her to know. He also doesn't want my ex whose his best friend to know which also makes sense. It makes sense to me but it's still a little weird.

The worst thing ever is to hide a relationship from your friend, especially when you are dating their ex. So you made a right move, but yeah, be careful when your with him around her, because who knows how she will feel with you being with him.

Thank you. He told me he doesn't want her to know. He also doesn't want my ex whose his best friend to know which also makes sense. It makes sense to me but it's still a little weird.
Yea, that's weird. You can have a relationship with each other in the open, I think you should, just be respectful of each other's ex if you care. None of that secret gf bf stuff. Too shady.

You're in the clear. They didn't have anything special and it didn't last long at all. It would be different if it were like the love of her life that she lost...but it's not. Go do your thing lol besides, it doesn't even matter cause you've already done it with him.
