what a guy to do?

Go for it!!!!!!!! You know ya wana????

It is very normal for men to feel compassion and a need to protect. That is especially true when we see someone (especially women) who may be vulnerable. HOWEVER, do not confuse this with "real" love. It is compassion.

Be a friend, but if she needs more than a friend and needs to talk with a counselor.... step aside let her (encourage her) to do that.

Then if she decides that her present relationship is bad and she decides to get out; you might consider a different type of relationship. If she is emotionally available, you may want to decide if your "friendship" is based on "trust" and not "vulnerability". A relationship of trust has a much better chance of developing into something more positive, possibly a loving relationship.

Good Luck!

It appears that she sees you as one of her close friends because she tells you about her boyfriend problems. If you begin to have romatic feelings towards her, you need to let her know about it. I have had women as my best friends, and it has been very nice, because they told me things that women normally would circulate only among their female friends. I am sure the two of you will work it out just fine.

Awww that's cute. But let's face the truth: You are falling for the girl. Don't try to deny it. It won't work. I've been there.

Just tell her how you feel. And if she doesn't like you like that, then just tell her you're willing to stay friends.

Be very careful! If you are falling for her then map the situation out before making a move.
Remember your friendship is more important then anything! if you like her and care for her.....u must talk to her BUT don't talk to her about it when she telling you something negative about him cuz you'll just look like you are trying to persude her.
Be wise about when you are going to make your move

Give it a little time. If you still feel the same way, then you probably are starting to fall for her. A fling usually does not last too long.

Unfortunately, this is not good at this point, because she is still with her boyfriend. You'd have to wait for her to leave him and give some time so you're not catching her on the rebound. That way, you won't lose your friendship if she does reject you.

Now if you want to completely try to forget her, she will either have to break up with her boyfriend so she doesn't come to you in her state or you will have to find someone special for you so that you can keep your feelings off of her.

awww...that is soooo...cute! you know what!!? i think you might be falling in love with her..if anything, you liked her the whole time but just realized that you are!!!! uhmmm. i think maybe you guys shouild start hanging out more! and maybe see movies with her. or ebtter yet, invite her to your house on like...a friday or saturday night. And watch a movie in the dark together, and if everything works out, kiss her!!!

thanx! <3

ok, you need to ask yourself one thing do you like her for who she is and thats why you have a crush on her or,,,,do you like her not just because she's your friend but because you want to how her that there are nicer men out there than the one she is with,

when it comes to crossing that invisible line when telling your friends you have feelings for them i would be very cautious, because it sounda to me like she likes you as a friend has she ever givin you reason to think anything else, i would say try to find someone different to go out with first before telling her and you will know by her reaction if she likes you back.

Well, she pratically is like ya best friend now and best friends now and then do fall for each other. I think it's a matter of do u find her attractive enough to fall for her or do u just hate to see her suffer like this as a friendship level?

just B there for her when she needs to complain eventually shell start coming on to u if thengs keep goin bad with her BF then ull take her away from right under his nose... lika a bugger! XD

dont be a tool. youve been friends long enough that you could have taken a shot. but you didnt. now your gonna be the jackass that bones some guys old lady cause shes mad at him? you can expect that kind of childish behavior from women. as a man you should hold yourself to a higher standard.
