So I have this massive crush on my best friend.
He broke up with his ex, which he's still friends with I guess, for the 'better'. Well, actually she broke up with him for the 'better'. I feel like we could totally have something but I have no idea if he still has feelings for his ex. Sort of killing me. How would I find out if he does?
I feel like it would be really pushy to straight out ask: hey so do you still have feelings for her? Also He might read something into it and I really don't want it to come off as me asking if he were interested in me.
Sorry if this seems abrupt just trying to make this short =)
Thank youuuuu
I agree that it'd be pushy to just ask how he feels about his ex. And I'll add that I think you're too caught up on his ex, jmo. Talk to him! Make friends with him! Get an idea for where he's at and if you're comfortable admitting your feelings. And if you're doubting that he's ready to move on, then keep waiting.
I do want to caution and say that people are capable of holding deep feelings for more than one person. His feelings for his ex, if he does have them, may never go away. But that doesn't mean he can't move forward with a different, healthy relationship. ^^ However, I think you should talk to him and just get to know him more as a person. Then judge for yourself if he seems interested. =)
thanks for the advice c:
