Hi everyone, will try and keep this brief!
I started uni last sept. and became really good friends with a guy in the first few weeks. He used to tell me about this girl (one of many!) who he noticed on our course and she seemed shy/interesting to him (basically I think he had a small crush/wanted to know her better). I met that girl a few weeks later through a friend and it turned out that she really liked me and we got in a relationship pretty soon.This friend of mine was always curious about how things were between us and I used to tell him believing that he cared about me etc..
A few months later me and my gf broke up (long story why!) and when I told my friend about this (who also became really good friends with my gf through me) he seemed to take it lightly and didn't seem too bothered. I used to tell him exactly how much I missed her and all the things that were between her and myself thinking that he was honestly worried about me but I don't think that was the case. He told me how he liked a girl, and he asked her out twice in 5 months but got rejected. After my breakup, he has got pretty close with my ex gf (there is no way that she likes him more than a friend!) and it almost feels as if I am being eliminated from the equation.
This is not a question of me being jealous and insecure, but this friend of mine likes a lot of girls and has very little success because he isn't the kind of guy a girl looks for in a bf. He has started to reduce a lot of contact with me as well, and often he tries to be around her and talks to her a lot. I am still on good terms with my ex so I am 100% sure that she doesn't like him that way but how do you think I should deal with him? Should I look to avoid him as well now and let him be the way he is?
Thanks for reading.
