Relationship Issues & Advice

[Oddities]

So I have recently give up on my crush because he just didnt seem to care about how into him I was. But around the time I gave up on him, my best friend broke up with her boyfriend, who is also my best friend since we hang all the time. I actually found myself attracted to him. So after a while we hooked up and we are still going out. Does it make me a bad person if Im dating my best friends ex? And if so, should I break up with him?

Of course it doesn't make you a bad person, but if you value your relationship with your best friend you should make sure that she knows what is going on and that you are open with her about the relationship with him. Talk to your best friend!

If I was on the other end of the table, as your bestfriend I would be kinda upset at first.. If we had a GENUINE friendship though, I wouldn't have a choice but to understand and want to see your happiness. I don't think it necessarily makes you a bad person, if it's meant to be, it was bound to happen regardless of who he was with before you. Hope I helped .

You are not a bad person for dating someone that your best friend has dated. She may not like it, but hey, great guys don't grow on trees. I would also suggest telling her, because she'll be even more mad if you hide it. Don't break up with him if you truly like him, you'll probably regret it.
