Dear Gabby – Week of October 7th

Dear Gabby,

I have a confession to make, I’m in love with my best friend who’s dating my other best friend. What should I do? If loving her is wrong I don’t want to be right.

Sincerely, Anonymous

Dear Anonymous,
Personally, I think this is one of the hardest things. A love triangle is something tough to overlook, especially when it consists of two best friends. I don’t know the background story and the history of your friendship, but sometimes remaining just friends can create an even stronger bond.

I know trying to ignore the feelings are complicated, but enjoy and value your friendship now. You never know down the road, she may fall for you. Have you confronted her or your other best friend about your feelings?

I don’t know if I would suggest you do that, it depends on how comfortable you feel. My advice to you would be to enjoy your time with her now. I know it’s easier said than done, but appreciate your friendship now without thinking about having a future with her.

Good luck, Gabby
