It depends on if you want to pursue a relationship with your friend, and are realistic about what may or may not happen. Any number of people have had great relationships develop with a long term friend. Sometimes the friend does not reciprocate the feelings and you may need space from them for a time until you feel more comfortable around eachother. The friendship, at least on your side, is already altered. If you decide not to tell your friend how you feel, you may feel hurt or resentful when they date other people, or you may evenutually get past your crush. Why does falling in love destroy a friendship? The best kind of love is built on a deep friendship first. How can you love someone and not be a friend? Married couples are always friends first and lovers second.
tell them that your not in the place of your life to get married yet and that your not wanting to destroy your friendship because it means a lot to you
You need to get to know someone to be their friend and should propose the friendship only when you know who you are talking too which is best done in person not anonymously on the internet.
* You have already admitted that you have a strange and weak relationship with your friend so that indicates that your friendship isn't as close as you may think it is. Friends should be able to be honest with each other. If your friend is not dating this boy and you like him then be honest with her. If this is enough to destroy your friendship then it was never a friendship in the first place.
Your friend should not be jealous enough to endanger your friendship. But you can let him/her beat you at something to help cool down the friendship.
You should be honest to your friend. However , if you are not honest and then also you want your friendship to be stronger then you should talk to your friend daily as much as possible.

Honesty is always the best policy. Friendship and love can be very confusing as a true, loving relationship is having someone you love who is also your best friend. You should take some private time out and be honest with your male friend and tell him you only think of him as a friend and not romantically and let him know you want to remain friends. Hopefully he will understand and your friendship will continue.
That's silly. Don't destroy friendship because of love. Friendship is more precious. Wait for her. If you stick around long enough, she may realize she feels the same way.
figure it out with your friend, if they are really your best friend, then they wouldn't pick him over you, maybe she, or you, or even both of you should move on to someone else, don't go and make a move on him before you talk to your friend, it will ruin your friendship,
You should ask your friend if they would be o.k. with it, because he/she is you friend and friendship comes first.
You should talk to your friend who is dating the other friend's ex about telling her. If she refuses and continues to see the ex, you might want to evaluate her interpretation of friendship and what kind of friend she is. Based on that, you may want to tell the friend yourself if the other refuses.
It depends on what his friend needed. If it was to be someplace where it was no big deal then he should have came here with you. If he needs a night with her or his friends , then calm done. If it is someone urgent and tragic then you should support him and his/her friend. Remember friendship lasts longer and especially is more important then a relationship does.
