My best friend boyfriend wants to sleep with me. My BFF went to boot camp and her boyfriend calls me almost everyday and it starts off with him talking about her and how much he misses her and then he says you know the only reason me and her got together was b/c you had a boyfriend and she wanted to get with me anyway. I am not attracted to him only b/c it's my friend boyfriend but I could never cross that line b/c of this reason but when I tried to tell her she said he asked for my number so she gave it to him b/c she don't want him to talk to other females............WTH So she thinks it's innocent and it's not and I don't know how to tell her i'm afraid she will get upset b/c i already told her he was a dog and she is still with him. Someone please help b/c i don't want her to think i want him either.

Hello There! First, you need to straighten yourself then tell the guy that you don't want to have anything to do with him. If you are in a relationship, it would be best if you stay away from him then just spend time with your man. Calls and text messages should not be answered by you so that he will get the impression that you are not into him. If I am in your position and I need to tell my bestfriend about her boyfriend trying to mess around with me then I would definitely save all his text messages and my sent message to him so that I can show it to my friend if she will not believe in me because normally, it is understandable if your friend will still believe her boyfriend coz she loves her. It is like choosing your husband over your family that kind of thing. Better to have an evidence that will save our friendship and will straighten her up. If it is through a call, then i don't know how you will save all your conversations with him. lolz. However, the most important thing right now is that you know your boundary and respect your friendship especially yourself. In that way, it will prevent you from doing bad decision. Besides, once you tell your friend about it, it is up to her who to trust and it is up to her to find out the truth. Just keep your distance until your best friend comes back. Take care. Goodluck. Thanks for the discussion and Happy Mylotting. Have a a great day!

You should probably be upfront with this friend of yours and tell her to keep a leash on her boyfriend. Just tell her you don't want him and if you lose a friend or two, so be it. There are better people out there. She doesn't seem worth it to me.

I agree with you. This is a matter of choice. In this case, where it involves a friend, I would use any excuse to say no.

I think you should confront them both. Tell the guy that what's his doing is not proper and that you will tell it to your best friend. Make it clear to him that you are not interested and that you love your friend. Also, your friend has the right to know what a jerk her boyfriend really is. Just find a perfect time to tell her so she won't take it against you... Hope that helps! =)

Sirens should of went off when he asked for your number. If my fiance ask for a girls number he better have a reason. Fortunately he never has asked for any of my friends numbers. Its just a boyfriend shouldn't be talking to his girls best friend unless you'll were already friends anyways. I just think its rather odd.

So you would be attracted to him if he wasn't dating your friend? Sounds like there is some truth to what he said but no, the right thing would be to make it very clear that you want nothing to do with him and be honest with your friend, if you have any text msg that will support you that might help but be upfront and don't give in to temptation if it exists.

Yes he not an ugly guy, we both met him at the same time it's just she wanted to talk to him b/c she seen him before and I stepped off. As time went on I was happy it was her and not me b/c he's lame and he's a dog he cheats on her all the time and she don't listen to me b/c she already feels like I want to talk to him. Thanks for your advice too :-)

You have to be more forceful with him. Don't pick up the phone when he calls and do tell him firmly that you are not interested and that he needs to stop calling you! Tell him that if he continues on that you will tell her what he is up to and then do it. Record him if need be but if you are serious about not wanting him then you need to get that message thru to him.

If you really have no interest in him, this should not be a problem! He is a pig. And that much is obvious! If you already told your friend about his advances towards you and she still chooses to stay with the guy then let her! When we are in love, it's really hard to follow what our mind tells us. Have faith that one day your friend will see this man for what he really is and move on with her life without this loser! Never cross that line where you can risk losing a friend just for a guy who obviously isn't worth it. If he can be unfaithful to your friend, he can be unfaithful to anybody. I would suggest staying as far away from him as possible.

first of all i have to say that from what i have read in your post you are an amazing friend. Most girls would jump right on it if it were offered to them. i been there and lost a great friend or so i thought untill she slept with my guy. anyhow. it seems your friend is not listening to you. some people are just blind to things they dont wanna see, i mean maybe she knows it and just dont want to show she knows. some people have attachment problems and ill be the first to admit that i did. i wouldnt go as far a taking photos or spying but just keep telling her and if this friend means alot to you just be there when she falls cause it will hit her. i just think if you get photos it may make you the bad person in her eyes ya know. but again im no expert by any means. but whatever you do dont give in he is a dog and alot more i cant say cause of the rules but i cant stand guys like that. and you are really great for standing your ground and telling him to back off! that shows alot of self respect on your part. i hope your friend dont get hurt.

If I were you I wouldn't tell her right now. With all the stress she's under in boot camp you shouldn't add more stress by telling her about that. Just be true to your friend and when she gets home then tell her what an jerk he was while she was gone. In the meantime, tell the scumbag to back off or else.

You may want to consider to tell your friend about this before the bf talk bad about you bcox you won't know what the bf will tell your friend like things "you want to sleep with him, you called him and bla bla bla...". He can make up stories, you know. To tell you friend is to protect yourself and your friend as well. Maybe you can tell her after the camp. See what's the reaction from your friend, she wants to believe it or not, up to her at least you play your role telling her about this.
