So the scenrio is this: My friends dating this guy since she was 15 on and off until she was about 25. She's now 28. They remained good friends, she doesn't want to be with him because she just lost that "feeling" for him a couple years ago, but still loves his friendship and she has since gone on to date numerous guys some over a year. I've adored her ex, but not in any other way then "wow, what a great guy she has, I'm happy for her..." Well, him and I have been spending a lot of time together because he's doing some contracting work in my home. I now see him as single "Mike" rather then "Gina's ex-boyfriend". There is a lot of chemistry between us. I haven't had a relationship in 10 yrs, but I've had plenty of dates I'm just very particular over that certian connection I need to feel with a man. And for once I really, really feel that with him! She knows that I'm interested, and I told her I would never date him without her consent. She didn't really flinch, but I'm sure it would bother her, plus it would make for some very akward situations, if we should end up dating. I still feel unethical sometimes when I think of dating him. At the same time, I have searched high & low for years for just one good guy that I actually feel chemistry with....what do I do???
