I am afraid to pursue anything with her...

[mecoptera]

I have recently been driving a female friend of mine to school. As a result, we have gotten to know each other better and are constantly flirting with each other. At least I think she's been flirting with me, she always laughs at my stupid jokes and is always finding some excuse to touch me and always stares right into my eyes when she has the chance.

 

The problem is, is that she has a boyfriend, of whom is with the army in Iraq right now and is also one of my best friends. I am afraid that if I pursue anything it would ruin my friendships with both of them, but I am tired of keeping this all bottled up inside me.

 

I have known her for 9 years now, because she is the sister of another friend of mine. I have had a crush for her since I first met her.

Well you know if you make a move you will atleast lose one best friend, its going to be a judgment call. You need to ask yourself what is an acceptable loss in order to get what you want.

Dude this is rough. YOU shouldnt be the person to make a move here. If she wants to start somethin with you, she should break it off with her boyfriend. Its still hard. I understand that you guys having quite a bit of chemistry. Its hard to resist that sometimes.

I agree, dont go there. She is just lonely and is missing her relationship with her guy. Why complicate both your lives and ultimately both end up in a mess with one of you if not both of you getting a broken heart? Take a step back and see the whole picture.
