    I am sorry that this is happening in your life it must hurt very much. I think she must be very special to have a special friend like you.
    I can't offer much advice except to ask, how solid does her current relationship seem to be? If it is pretty solid, you might want to gain some distance and begin actively looking for a girlfriend to distract you and help you deal with the void. I wish you well.

    That is exactly where I am now. I'm totally in love with her and she has fallen for another man. We chose to continue the friendship because we are so close. I hurt all the time knowing she wants another, but feel like I need to be here for her as a friend. Maybe "KW Hudd" is right- She will come back to you and mine to me in the end. Obviously I'm rooting for you cuz if yours does I can have hope mine will. The toughest thing is NOT sitting around all day HOPING for it- just try to live life and see what's next.
    GOOD LUCK!

    Maintain your friendship but never again approach. If you are a good person, there is always a good chance that they may come back around to you. After they have time to fish around and find out the truth on others, that someone else may suddenly loose heart to them. It may be a distance down the road, several years, but you could start haunting them again. If you have someone else close when they do come back to you, and you first see them, that deep love you had could quickly wisp away, realizing that you never loved her like you thought you did. This would hurt her far deeper than she ever hurt you. She had her chance, now it is gone.

    hrm i am in exactlty the same boat except her new feelings are directed at my best mate... i like the idea of letting it go for the time being and just moving on with life. After all if that person is truely that great and appreciates how awesome you have been about remaining her friend after this ordeal then you might just get back together some where down the line but its more than likely not worth waiting around for, move on for now and get get on with your own life.
