text: i like a guy, who is my ex's friend. should i do something about it or leave it alone?   actually, i'm currently having that same problem. i'm in fairly good terms with my ex and it also depends on how long it's been since the two of you broke up. my friends advice was that i just let him decide. if he likes me and wants to give it a shot that's great but if not i could see how it would be outside his morals as a friend. just try not too maul him or anything. he's just like any other guy. be yourself and if he likes you enough then it won't matter because he'll be following his heart. ;d
