I have a crush on my best friends girlfriend...?
So, before they were dating, I liked her. But before I could do anything my best friend since kindergarten admitted he likes her too. So I m kind of a pushover so I let him go for her. She ends up liking him and they start going out. My feelings for her go away. Later she becomes really depressed because her best friend left and stopped being her friend. Anyway she goes to my best friend and me because he is her boyfriend, and I am her closest friend at the time. At that point I promised to her that I wouldnet leave her like her best friend. Now I realize that I like her, and I don t know what to do. I don t want either of them getting hurt, and I know if I ignore her she will become very sad again. But my best friend is wayyyy more important. She thinks of me as her best friend and I just go along with it. I really need help and I don t know what to do...

That's happened to me before. You care about your best friend and the saying is bros before hos. (Not saying that she is a ho). You also can't abandon this girl without telling her why, but if you tell her why your best friend will get hurt. The way I see it you have 2 options. You can either ignore it and continue on the way it has been. Maybe find a distraction in the form of another girl that you may crush on or a sport that you can take your frustrations out on. Or, you can be honest. You can explain to your best friend the situation and tell him that you will back off (because it seems like you feel guilty and you don't want to steal his girl). I'm sure your best friend will understand (maybe a little upset) especially if your intention is to back off.
