See, thats why messing around with friends is NOT a good idea! Things change between the two of you and most of the time you cannot go back to being JUST friends without someone getting hurt in the process.


Ok, so now whats the deal with your ex? Are you getting back together with him or what? Why did you two break up in the first place?

If you are getting back together with your ex, then yeah, I wouldn't lead your friend on any longer and just let him have his space. You might have lost a friendship, but why rub it in his face being with your ex again.

If you aren't getting back together with your ex and are unsure about your friend, then talk to your friend. Explain to him how you actually feel and then let him have his space and decide what he wants to do. Its possible he truly did have these feelings with you all along but didn't want to break up you and your bf at the time. Or, he could have honestly just started falling for you. So, just give him some space and let him come to you. But, going from more then friends back to friends is going to be hard. I mean maybe not for you, but possibly for him. So, keep that in mind. This may be why it might not be wise to hang around each other for awhile until things blow over.
