Dear Rosie, I really like this girl that I met recently through iMatchup…that is until I met her best friend. I feel like she is my soul mate…we have so many things in common and it's like it was love at first site. I don't know what to do, I mean I've only been on a few dates with the girl I'm currently seeing and she wanted to introduce me to her best friend. The best friend and I have hung out together but not in any kind of dating form. I'm not like that. I just really feel a connection that I've never felt with anyone else when I'm around this girl. What should I do? Sincerely, Hung Up on Best Friend A. Dear Hung Up on Best Friend, This is a tricky situation for you to be in but you can make it through this. The first thing that you need to do is tell the girl you are currently dating what is going on. It might hurt her initially from the rejection but you need to be honest with her. Let her know that you do enjoy spending time with her but that you met someone inadvertently and feel a connection that you haven't felt for someone. She will understand. It may take time but she will. You must also tell her who the person you have feelings for is because you never want to come between best friends, as it will only end up in hurt and drama in the end. Ask her if she would be comfortable with you pursuing a relationship with her friend. You have to be prepared for the fact that her or her friend may not want to pursue anything with you in the future. But you need to try because you will always regret it in the future if you didn't. Good Luck and Keep Me Posted!! Rosie, The Love Vixen If you have a question on life or love send your thoughts to AskUs@iMatchup.com. |
