What to do, what to do...

So I'm 16 and I have a boyfriend that I"ve only been going out with for a month. I like him but not near as much as he likes me. And the truth is I'm in love with this other guy (one of my best friends) and have been for a year and a half. And he feels the same...but due to circumstances we can't go out. Mainly, he just keeps backing off because he's scared of losing me. What do I do? Please help...thanks

Well first off, you can't keep leading your b/f on if you have strong feelings for your friend. You need to tell your b/f the truth. Then you should talk privately with your best friend about your feelings for him. You need to see if you could ever be more than friends, but kee[ in mind that relationships often ruin friendships.

I agree with Punks, everything she said was what I had in mind pretty much. Good luck.

dont go out with your friend unless he feels the same way. cause trust me when i say after you go out with your friend things definitley change i only know from experience. things become awkward and its a terrible feeling. i dont give out the greatest advice, but i try lol. good luck with everything!!!! =]]

Well thats where it's complicated. My parents don't approve, not because he's not a good guy, but he just was a jerk last year. And he's going to a different college than I'm going to. And we don't know about the long distance thing. And if we went out this year we'd have to keep it secret.
