I have a guy friend whom i have known for almost a decade already. He's been a good friend, adviser and a big brother to me. I always turn to him whenever I have problems regarding my personal life. We've lost communication for a year due to his work, he moved to another city and I've changed my number. Just last year when we started to communicate through facebook. We exchange numbers and email each other whenever possible. During the last two months my relationship with my boyfriend of two years seems not okay. He would always get jealous of little things even with my work and my co-workers. I always text my friend and ask him for some advices. Not knowing that we text and check on each other more often than my boyfriend. He told me that way back before he wanted to court me but then he was hesitant to do so. Since, he knew that I have a boyfriend already. but things never change between us even if he told me about it. We became more closer each day and i really don't know why he wants to call me honey. I was confused this past few days, I really don't want to ruin our friendship, but each passing day i'm falling for him. Any advice you can share with me guys?

When your boyfriend shows jealousy, it's still love (in an unpleasant way). The thing is perhaps it's you that cause the need for this unpleasant show of love. Are you straying away in your love? This love can still be heaven like what it was since it's not your boyfriend that is distancing. As for your decade friend, changing it to a love affair might just end every friendship when love sours ( of course it can also become your life-long affair ). Actually, nothing is for sure in this world but it's always sweeter when it's the other that's loving you (you lead) rather than you loving the other(he leads).

Thanks for your reply yes being jealous for no reason at all is really disgusting and it is not really healthy for a relationship if you get jealous all the time.

Love is a great feeling which has to be expressed. If you find it true, never fail to convey, thats a tribute to the love in real.Yes am in true love and its a feeling of happiness life long.

I think you should find ways to make yourself happy, if you are not happy with your boyfriend and you think he gets jealous of you on little thing, then you should definitely leave your boyfriend and tell your frind that you are falling in love with him. I am telling you, to live this life you have to be selfish to some extent. SO its simple if its not working between you and your boyfriend then just leave him and go to the guy who you really love.

the fact that you still feel that way to your friend and that it grows stronger than the boyfriend is already an indication that you love your friend more than your boyfriend. so there's no reason why you should not call it off with your boyfriend otherwise he might think you are fooling him.
and there is nothing wrong with falling in love with your friend who's been like an older brother to you
my husband used to be that too. :)
