My g/f might like my best friend

You’ve put yourself in a very difficult situation by living with your girlfriend and your best friend. You’re all in such close proximity that a problem was bound to happen! For future, [i]do not [/i]ask a girlfriend to live with you when you already live with another guy. Problems are destined to occur, and they did! So, don’t do that again.

The reality for now is that you can’t keep the equilibrium you had going, going any longer. Things are going to change. My advice to you is not keep secrets from your girlfriend if you really care about her. And if you don’t care about her enough to be honest with her, you probably shouldn’t be living with her or even dating her. So you need to stop keeping a bond with your friend/roommate about your girlfriend. End of that story.

Since you broke those two rules (moving your girlfriend in with you and your best friend, and keeping a secret with your best friend, about your girlfriend, from her) the most you can hope for is a change of geography! What I mean is, I’d suggest changing your living arrangements. I know it’s a big step, but the situation you’re in now is going to get worse if you don’t do this. I would suggest that either your girlfriend moves out so that you continue to date her while she’s living somewhere else or if you decide she’s acting too shady, you can break up with her and not have her continue to live with you. Either way, having her move out is a good idea. If she moves elsewhere and you do continue to date her, you’ll be able to see more clearly how good (or bad) things are between the two of you. That way, you can decide if you want to continue dating her. When you’re living together and she’s hanging out in your house constantly, it’s hard to determine where the two of you are romantically. Too many boundaries are broken when she’s another housemate, as well as your girlfriend. It’s a tough dynamic to maintain, as you can now see!

The other option is having your friend move out and keep the girlfriend with you, amping up your romantic relationship to the next level because it’s no longer you, your girlfriend and your best friend. You’ll be seriously living together as opposed to housemates with another guy. It’ll be just you and your girlfriend. You may lose your best friend over this. Or, your girlfriend may decide it’s too serious for her and back out, and you’ll know where you stand with her.

Let me know how things go. Should be an interesting week for you!
