help? guy friend likes best friend buuut...?
ok, so, i became good friends with this guy on a bus ride with my band, lets call him... bob? sure! ok, so "bob" told me that his friend liked my best friend, lets call his friend... "frank" (sorry about the simple names :P) and my friend is... "cristen", so "frank" likes "cristen" and "bob" told me
try to keep up, this is kinda confusing
so i became friends with "bob" and "frank", "frank" because he liked my best friend, "cristen".... just a few days ago "bob" told me that he liked me, and, sadly, i dont like him like that, but we are still friends. "bob's" best friend, "frank" and i have become pretty good friends, all because he likes my friend "cristen"
"cristen" knows that "frank" likes her, and im trying to get her to go out with him, but, heres the problem, i think i like "frank" as more than a friend.
do you get my problem? "bob" likes me, and "frank" is "bobs" best friend, and frank likes MY best friend "cristen"
anything i can do except just keep my mouth shut?

How much do you really like Frank? Enough to risk hurting Bob and losing him as a friend? After all he was your friend before you even knew Frank. And the Frank/Cristen thing only complicates things. Do you really need this much drama in your life? Simply let things unfold by stepping back and letting things play out, esp. with F and C. With so many friends involved, I would just keep it uncomplicated and remain friends with everyone or feelings will be hurt and friends will be lost.

Well so far it seems that "Frank" likes "Cristen" and not you, so I would wait it out and see what happens with them. Or you can stop pushing "Cristen" to go with "Frank", but I guess if you ended up with "Frank" that might hurt "Bobs" feeling and you might ruin their friendship. I would let it go.

First, tell bob you would love to be his friend but just his friend, second TELL CRISTEN YOU LIKE FRANK. This will be hard and she may hate you but you need to get it out.. Then after it has cooled down with cristen, tell Frank. Hope this helps.

You let Frank have his try with Cristen. If she's not interested you stay friends and hope he swings your way. If not, wait for the next cute guy to come along. There's PLENTY fish in the sea!!

This is such a love triangle!!! Well, if cristen doesn't like frank, then he is all yours! Flirt with him, but frank probably won't jump for you if he really cares about his friends feelings. Just don't keep setting up cristen and frank up because then you will just be upset. Trust me, I've done it and i wasn't happy about it. Soo yeah hope i helped!!

You need to see if your friend has any feelings for this guy Frank. The question to ask yourself does Frank like you? Or would he betray his friend Bob who does like you. In the end you need to figure out how valuable is your friendship with your best friend and your friend Bob. Feelings might get hurt in this situation, is it worth the lost of your friendship with your best friend.

:\\ well if your friend REALLY doesn't like Frank than you should still go for him....but you don't want to hurt bob so i'd wait a little while. (man, that was confusing to understand at first! :P) Good luck!

guys dont always stay likeing the same person for that long anyways so maybe you should just wait for the right time... nothing lasts forever. if you feel like he might have something for you too... then explain to him that you "think" you like him. dont just come out and say it. thats too strong. or maybe you should become friends with bob and explain to him what is going on.
