Why won't my lesbian friend let me date her former boyfriend?

okay NO. dont listen to the whole ‘nvr date your friends ex’ thing, its complete BS. its a dumb rule, if your really friends then shell get over it. I had a girl who liked me for months and when I finally figured it out and we got close, we fell head over heels for each other, but she was one of the ‘good friend’ types. and I had dated one of her friends for a little over a month, mostly out of pity and my inability to say no to a girl, at the time. and she refused to date me because of that, until summer came along. but the other girl (my ex) found out about it and b!tched her out for it. tell me one thing, what kind of friend would do that? what kind of real legitimate friend would get pissed of and b!tch out one of their best friends over something that makes them HAPPY!? my point is, if you like him, and he likes u, talk to your friend about it, work it out, and then DATE the guy, whether she likes it or not. if your really that close of friends, shell get over it and be happy for u, and sacrifice her own unhappiness for a chance for YOU to be happy. I mean, shes a lesbian (apparently) and hes her EX. so id say its safe enough to assume that she probably doesnt have a lot of feelings for the guy anymore. and if shes mad at you for it, then maybe she still does. I dont mean to be mean or a b!tch about this. but honestly, when it comes to this aspect of love, a little selfishness is a good thing. try to work it out with her, she might let up a bit and let you date him, if not…then go for it anyways. you deserve to be happy, we all do. and any ‘friend’ who doesnt let their friend have that chance…id question how good of a ‘friend’ they really are.

thats just my opinion, I’ve seen a lot of people who should have been together not be together because of stuff like this. its disappointing.. but in the end, its your decision to make.
