tell him how you feel girl! i know it might end up hurting someone, maybe you, him or the other girl but it has to be done. you have to be honest with what you feel. admit that after some time, you have fallen for him and you have learned to value him more than an ordinary friend. it's really hard to keep those feelings because all you get to do is imagine what you could and possibly have been if you had chosen to tell him the truth.

yes, but I am married now, so it is definitely too late. I will always wonder what might have been

Not yet, because if I like the girl I know it as soon as I feel it. i know myself very well... I know when I am in love, if I am just interested, or if it is just pure friendship. But i know some of my friends who confide to me about that kind of situation... when they realize it too late that they love someone badly but they didn't realize it until the girl was gone.

Well sometimes you have to lose someone in that sense so that your true colors(feelings) for that person can come out. Unfortunately, one needs to let things ride the way they are going to ride in other words although it may hurt you, you need to let him see if things are going to work out with his current girlfriend. If things do not work out and you still have very strong feelings for him then try to find out where he stands and then see what happens after that. Take things one day at a time, if the girl is not right for him things will not work between them just do not expect a fast reaction from him since he basically already figures (since you told him) that you do not feel anything for him.
