Hi, I have a good friend who I was going to ask out on a date last friday. We have dated briefly previously but it didn’t work out due to the fact that I got scared of being in a relationship.

My feeling for her haven’t gone away so I decided that I was going to ask her out again at the weekend as we were meeting for a few drinks. Unfortunately before I got the chance to ask her she told me that she had been seeing someone.

I’m now not sure what to do now as I see her everyday at work and I think its going to be a real stuggle being near her.

Do I tell her how I feel or do |I| keep my feelings to myself and hope I get over it?
I’m not sure how serious her relationship is with this other guy.

Don’t tell her how you feel. It’s just going to make things awkward. If you want to date her, then date her. [i]And[/i] if you want to date her, you’re not her friend. You’re either in the friend zone, or you’re someone who wants to compete to win her over. The problem is you’re trying to play both sides of the coin, being her friend (which you’re not) and being a guy who dates her. My advice is to understand she’s only just started seeing someone else, so she’s fair game. If you can win her over, then go for it! 😉
