Alright, so, I'm kinda torn between two guys right now. I'm not gonna use they're real names just... because, so we'll call them Bob and Joe.
I'll start with Joe. I've been friends with Joe since I was in 3rd or 4th grade. He lives right down the street from me so I see him pretty much everyday. I consider him my best friend. I've kinda had a crush on him since like 7th grade, but I don't think he feels the same way. He's a grade ahead of me, so he dates girls that he knows in his grade. For some reason I feel kinda jealous whenever he has a girlfriend, but not enough for it to actually bug me, and plus it's never changed our friendship before.
So recently, like 2 weeks ago, Joe introduced me to Bob. Joe obviously had the idea of setting us up, but I'm not sure if Bob's the one that told Joe to, or if Joe just decided that we'd make a good match. Initially I was a little hurt, because I liked Joe and everything, but I decided to meet Bob and see how things go.
I met Bob, and now I really like him lol. We've been texting eachother and stuff, and we have a lot of the same interests and he's really cool and stuff. But at the same time, I still kinda like Joe, and I'm afraid that if Bob and I start actually dating, he'll feel left out, being good friends with both of us.
So Bob and I are going on a date to the movies about a week from now, and my mom told me she'd feel more comfortable with me going on a group date. And I figure, 'we're both good friends with Joe, I'll ask him.' So I ask Joe to go, and he said he'd need a date. So I asked one of my friends to go with him, and she agreed. I don't want to feel jealous though. I've been jealous of this friend before because she went out with a kid I liked during the school year. She didn't know I liked him though. They're obviously not together anymore though, and I obviously don't like that kid anymore haha.
So, should I get over my crush on Joe because I really like Bob and we're reeeally close to actually dating?
Also, because Joe knows both Bob and I, I feel inclined to invite him to everything Bob and I do, but I don't want that, and I'm sure Bob wouldn't like that either. I just don't want Joe to feel left out :/
Any advice on how I should handle the whole thing?
