Should I make a move on my BFF's ex?


 

Check these out, too...

  • What he really thinks of your fave summer outfit
  • How to deal with a bad kisser
My crush is always smiling at me and joking around with me. All my buds think he likes me, but I think he still likes his ex-GF (my BFF). Do you think he is falling for me or still hung on my bestie?

 

Hey girl! It’s totally possible that he’s crushing on you. Joking around with a crush is a guy’s #1 flirting tool. It probably feels great that he smiles at you and gives you attention, but you have to be careful since his ex is your BFF. It’s possible that he’s flirting with you to make her jealous if he still has feelings for her.

 

It will be super tough to know what his true feelings are without asking him. If you’re not comfortable asking him about his feelings (and I totally understand if you aren’t!) it would probably be best to try and move on. Think about the consequences if you two started dating. There’s a good chance you could lose your BFF. Is it worth it? Boys are so confusing and I would hate for you to fall for him, when it’s possible his flirting could turn out to be silly antics to get his ex back. You deserve better!

MOD MOD MOD Ok well there's this guy he's sorta my best friends half brother and he always calls me cute he asked me out and I'm not sure if I should go out with him he's 12 and I'm 11 ps. Did I mention we live 2000 miles apart. Plzzzzzzzz heeeeellllllllppppppp




Hey chicky, that's a pretty long distance for a relationship. You should probably try checking out the guys that live a li'l closer to you. Also, you didn't say anything about liking him in particular, so if you don't have major feelings for him, it's probably best to say thanks, but no thanks.

If you like him, tell your Bff that you do and explain why. That's what friends are for, to share your crushes with. But, since he's her ex, you may want to say you don't want to try anything without her okay. If she isn't cool with it, there are plenty of other crush worthy guys. If she gives you an okay, you should to read more into your crush. Does he talk to you more/only when you are near you Bff? Does he ask about her? Or does he talk to you in private and ask about your life? Hope things work out!

How do you flirt with someone you feel is out of your league? And when you go out with a boy or have a new bf what do you guys do or talk about besides kiss and hug.

 

You talk to them about your interests! The things you have in common and the things you enjoy in life. The same thing applies to flirting. You can get any guy if you find things you have in common or passions to talk about. I talk to my boyfriend about comic books and he asks me about my design classes. That kind of conversation will help you grow closer. Hope this helps! xoxo kerra

Move on...
Me & my BFF have one rule in our friendship - we won't date each other's exes or crushes that were serious...
