No i think that is perfectly fine!!! Well i would think that when me and my better half got together i was 20 and he was 29, 3 years later and we have a awsome strong relationship, i was ready for something serious to plant my feet into and so was he, we had alot of things in common, i mean yes there are times when i think wow hes really been around alot more then i have and i can feel a little bit intimidated, but in the long run im thankfull he has those experiances to help guide our steps, I think he has come to believe that im never going to be perfect, even though i really try to do everything well, im not completely at his level on thinking, he has more life lessons to reflect on, but i dont think its a problem when we both discuss everything and keep the lines of communication open, just like any other relationship, my best friend is in the same boat, her husband is 10 years older then her and oddly enough shes the more responcible one, i dont see why any one would think its wrong, now if you were 25 and she was 15 there might be a huge responce to you sick mo fo lol but i dont think there is anything wrong with you liking her, ask her out, she might be into older guys, and with good reason, guys that are 20-24 are enough to make you want to puke, they only want one thing, they havnt figured out yet theres more to life then a nice set of boobs lol they dont know how to deal with money worth a crap, they only look out for themselfs, where older guys have alot more figured out, theres so many more perks to dating a older guy i could go on forever, more or less your more established at 30... id say go for it :) you have nothing to lose

Don't stop for being her friend it's your foundation... if your intention is good and clean then show it to her. Enjoy the moment you're with her, listen to everything she wants to share with you, it's a good start ;-)

Just do it.  Man up, pal and your friend will at least have to talk to you.  If things get worse, then you know you tried to resolve the issue.

Whatever you say make sure u mean it..... Just let your friend know if he or she needs any help ...such as help around house yard w/kids running errands u r willing  and ready. That way your friend can concentrate more on getting well.  If your friends wants to talk  about their illness  truly listen.   Most importantly by all means, do not treat your friend any different than you have in past.

Very mature decision... Offer to be a friend, listen to her when she wants someone to talk to, slip back into the shadows when she doesn't.  Just let her know that you're willing to be a friend until she's ready for more.  She'll respect and appreciate it.  Good luck.

So? If he's your friend just let him be whoever he is. I'm sure he'll appreciate it.

If you guys are great friends don't mess it up.  If she wants to go on the next level then you'll know.  But belive me some times haveing a great frindship is a whole lot better than beling involved.

How about a makeover for the friend? Or suggest a less-shallow guy?  Either would be a nice thing to do.

If he is a true friend he shouldn't expect you to continue to lie and pretend like everything is ok for him. The best thing is to help him because, that's what friends are for. Tell before he ends up in jail or worse dead.

I have always been the type of person who wants to know.  Most people on the other hand live with the rule that ignorance is bliss.  Do you know what kind of person your friend is ? But chances are if you tell you will loose both friends and they will work it out and continue their relationship.  What you can do perhaps is make it so that they will stumble upon it themselves somehow.  This way you did your part and you dont have to loose any friends.

Tell your friend to get a 2nd opinion.

go ahead and research what u want, but ask your friend(s) before telling them if they want to know what u found.  Sometimes peeps would rather stay in the dark. I personally would like to know what u had found, especially if it was adverse to what I thought about this person.

you should help your best Friend in an obvious career choice(soap drama's) but in all honesty these things have a tendency to work themselves out...Friends stay Friends if that's what they want
