I think it's ok for them to go out.
That said, she shouldn't rub it in your face by telling you everything that they are doing together. That's just plain insensitive!

If they no you like them, no. Not if they value the friendship. It's almost like stabbing them in the back. I mean if it does happen, I think the friends should definitely talk first. I mean if that happened, that could definitely end a friendship.

i guess it also depends on if the other person likes you back. if the other person is not interested in you what difference does it make?

lt would be quite aggravating to see your friend with your crush, it kind of depends on how much you think he/she is the ONE, I'm not sure.

I really wouldn't care at my age because chances are they wont be going out for long.

Of course it is! Your friend might not know you like the person, and just because you like the person, doesn't mean he/she's yours!

I think its okay, but i'd never have the courage to ask the person out anyway, so if my best/friend really liked him, then why not, if its gonna make her happy then fair enough. I'd prob be abit angry/upset over it, but i'd get over it in the end, i'd have to.

I do not think it's OK, if you liked the person longer and they know that.

I'm kinda neutral with this. I mean, if you didn't make your move your fault. And if she didn't like you at all, sorry but, you know. But at the same time, he/she/they don't have to rub it in your face like assholes.

At the same time, if you told your friend you liked her, and then he just flat out asked her out, that's kind of a dick move, and if I was in either of those situations, I'd be pissed off.

It really depends on who.If its a person i kind of like its ok but. If it is someone i really like I would be pissed, but hide it. The jealously would eat me alive.

It would depend on whether ithe friend knew u liked the the person or not.... If the friend knew u liked the person than its not ok.... But if the friend didn't then i guess its okay, cause it isn't there fault that they didn't know that u liked the person...

meh, happened to me...both him and her knew i liked her...but he went out with her anyway...actually...the only reason he met her...is because he wanted to meet the girl i liked...

still eats me up...plus the events that followed...

so...i think, with proper talking and confined behaviour, it would be ok...

Absolutely.

We have no right to tell people who they should and shouldn't go out with. Just because "you" have feelings for the a guy or girl doesn't mean that just because someone is your friend can't have feelings for the same person and act on them. That's just fucking selfish and jealous, to be honest. You'd have to be really shallow to end your friendship over something like this.

Like Sapphire says, though, they should never rub it in yours, or anyone elses faces (even jokingly), that's just bound to piss you off. The friend, should take your feelings into account, too.

No,in fact my friend did it to me,she said yes because he wouldn't get of her back,no pun intended.It was last school year,6th grade my friend(who i hate to say,copies me,a lot)and taht was kinda our friendship low point becuase he hang out with this one guy acting like that was his friend...and stoped hanging arond me...And then he went out with my dream girl/ and cloest friend who was a girl.I was pissed off.One of my other best friends say to forget avout it .I did.But what drove me insane and to the verge where i mite not want to be friends with him is when he said he was going too(and didn't!)Kiss katy,my girlfriend I've now ever since that momment been going out with a year.And at the same time his new step bro(that's what he called his new best friend)went out with Leslie,one off my close friends and they kept rubbing it in about going out adn having a date on the Christmas Party thingie to where i snaped and told'em in these exact words,(pardon my french)"SHUT THE F#%$ UP!"Yes i know it seems overdramtic but look in my view BEST BEST friend stoped haning around me,stole my girl ,and rubbed it in.So no i don't unless you ask,thats all he had to do was ask and i would have been cool with it...maybe:lol:

I think that if your friend knows you like someone that they also like, they should talk to you about if before they went out with that person. And they should try to make sure you are okay with it first. And no matter what they should never rub it in your face that they are with that person and you are not. Of course, if they don't know that you also like that person, it's not their fault.

One time a girl I was supposedly was friends with started going out with this guy she knew I had a crush on for years. She didn't talk to be about it. She didn't even tell me they were going out, and I don't know if she ever planned too. She told our friends not to tell me, but they did anyways. That made me mad.
(But whatever. They broke up a few days later. By that point, I was already over the whole thing. I no longer like the guy, and I wasn't to fond of the girl even before that.)

But try not to let it ruin your whole friendship if you can, I would hate if something like that happened with one of my best friends.

It is. Why? You can't control it and losing a friend isnt worth it. The person you like may not even like you, so who cares.

I think that it is ok if your friend doesn't know. If your friend knows and wants to because she likes him I would say it's fine. If he likes her they are both happy.

It drives me crazy, but I can't really control who other people date

no, i was in a relationship with a guy and we broke up. after 1 year i met up with him and i got to like him again. so i hung out with him with my friend, and she went and asked him out. Luckly he said no, but still i was upset, it hurt,
