Is there something wrong with being friends with someone who is dating someone else?

First off there is nothing wrong with just being friends with someone of the opposite sex. \nIt doesn't really matter what other people think..there will always be that one person who tries to hurt others relationships. As long as you and your friend are comfortable with your realtionship thats all that should matter. \nAs for others who feel its wrong.... they are not good friends if they were they would know there is nothing wrong with your relationship. If its her Boyfriend then he is very insecure with himself and his realtionship with his girlfriend. Unless she is the one leading him to think that your relationship with her maybe be more to make him jealous. \nThere are some who just can't accept other relationships liek yours its sad but true. \nI personally have had similar problems in the past. But if you and her are truely close and best friends everything will work out. If not then the friendship is not worth your time. \nHope this helps.

I would have to tell him, no at the moment I am dating someone else. Thank you so much for asking me, but I feel that it would be wrong to date you under the circumstance. NOW, if you are truly interested in this guy, take the high road, and break it off with the guy you are seeing.  Then perhaps pursue this other guy.  Show the guy you're with the respect he deserves. You can't have them both, so make a choice. I hope the choice is a wise one.

It will possibly ruin your friendship and if you are dating someone you should not even be considering it. If you do there will be conseqences. I suggest that you don't do it, it's not worth loosing a friendship over.

Don't go out with either of them. You can't experience something really special with one person or claim that you have a reason to date one person over another if you like lots of other people in the same way simultaneously. Everyone says "this one person is the best person in the whole world, and I love them to pieces," but the truth is that you can find 10 people exactly like him just by looking around. And usually you can have a perfectly good time, if not a better time, with people who you're not dating. Don't ruin either of your good friendships.

If you think that what you're doing may be wrong, then it is. If you feel that the relationship is completely harmless and serves no purpose other than a casual friendship then maybe not.\n\nThe test is if you told your significant other, would they be upset?

Don't do it!\n\nFriends are really important. Dating their exes is not a good idea because it can make things really strange between you. (been there...it's really not nice) and it can be really awkward if you bring him along to something where your friend is too.

I think dating someone new is ok as long as you realize that you are still getting over the other person. It is important to not use the person to help your hurt feelings go away. Let the other person know you are fresh out of a relationship and not ready to take it farther,

if it needs to be defined, the person isn't ready for a relationship.  as previously stated, it's the same thing.  now, you can introduce someone you just started dating as a friend.  however, when you throw the "boyfriend/girlfriend" title on there, you two are now a couple, which means you are exclusively dating.

its fun to date their ex's friends. I feel like I grow a connection with my boyfriends friends so it just feels natural to go for their friends.

if you are dating someone and you just want to be friends u are leading him on and this isn't a good relationship. u can both find someone u REALLY like and have a better life, not spend your life in miserable deceit, pretending! \n\nit sucks for him to go out with someone who doesn't even like him that way!

nothing. be a good friend and respect what they have between each other. don't try to be with someone that is already with someone else. there are a lot of people out there, why fight over someone especially if your friend is dating him?

I would hope that your best friend would have enough respect for you to not date any of your ex-girlfriends.  Women come and go (same as men), but 'real" friends don't.  But, yeah, I would be a little upset.

Ive done this very thing,My best friend and i messed around for a long time,and she was dating my other best friend,the difference is,he knew about it and didnt care one bit..she lived with me and we shared a bedroom....maybe its different when its 2 girls,instead of a guy n a girl....no chance of pregnancy or any of that...Now shes dating someone else,and i would still mess with her if i had the chance,even tho this guy doesnt like it,i dont care cuz hes a jerk and doesnt deserve her..

I've had this situation 4 months ago. We've just talked about it.. I frankly said, that i don't love him. He offered me to be friends. So we are very good friends right now. But I feel that i'm more than just a freind for him...Sometimes i think that it would be nice if we were together but can't do it right now, 'cause i broke up with my ex-bf yesterday. And i don't want to lose my friend.. It's up to a person :)

its not that its impossible but in some cases the male friend may have been somebody that u have already dated or had sex with and if you meet a new a guy natuarally he would feel uncomfortable for negative about him being around u, because just females they dont like other females and as far as guys they dont like other guys especially if its a relationship involved

definitly not wrong in fact that is how the true long time relationships start, you cut all the bullshit because you know each other allready.\nflip side is that you have to be sure your friend feels the same way or it could damage your friendship.\nGo with your gut
