This mf is a grown ass man doing highschool drama bs that I don't have time for.

How can I resolve this quickly and without bs drama.

if by "seen each other" you mean they've dated you're a shit fucking friend and broke bro code for a random bitch. you don't go for girls your friends have dated or are dating. while your friend is a retard for cutting himself you're no better for doing something that you're way too old to do.

if by "seen each other" you mean they're friends and he was firmly in the friendzone, then he's not your friend if he can't be happy for you.

They're friends not dating but it's easy to see he likes her but I don't see her liking him or giving him much attention if he's not the only one with her.

>both of them sitting at table next to each other talking
>i join them and she talks to me
>we move tables outside and she sits next to me and is all touchy feely
>friend is now just on his phone

Now did he think them going out for dinner makes them an item, i have no idea but I've not spoken to either of them since and I'm going out next weekend with both of them probably so I'll ask then.

I would message them but I rarely DM anyone online and just respond to group invites via group chats with a thumbs up.

you knew he liked her and still went for her? there's no shortage of women out there. you made your choice and at best he'll never see you the way he saw you before this and at worst that friendship is over effective immediately. only you know if it was worth it.

>>33360767
So just because someone else likes someone and the person doesn't reciprocate, that person is now off limits for anyone who is friends with them?

Sounds retarded I cant lie.

>there's no shortage of women out there

True but why try and bag a girl who I have no idea about when there is a girl throwing herself at me?
It's not my fault my friend couldn't convert himself out of the friend zone at that point accept it and move on, I've done that plenty of times in the past.

That's kind of a grey area that depends how close a friend you are with this guy. If he's one of your giga-bros and he has a crush on the chick, the homie move would be to not make a move on her. However, if he's just a more loosely defined 'friend' bordering on acquaintance, then it's fair game.

>So just because someone else likes someone and the person doesn't reciprocate, that person is now off limits for anyone who is friends with them?
Yes. If you're actually friends with them. Many people call acquaintances friends, but I'm talking about if you're really friends. If you're bros, that's absolutely a violation of bro code. It also shows you aren't capable of getting chicks on your own.

>>33360799
Waste of dubs. You're a faggot who's never had legitimate friends. KYS, worthless subhuman. Sorry you're such a repulsive lose who's low on options that you have to cannibalize girls your homies are into.

"Bro code" predates reddit you retarded fucking zoomer. You wouldn't know anything about it because you're a faggot who repulses women, so the first time anything with a vagina shows any interest in you, you spill your spaghetti and backstab your friend. You being alive actively makes the world worse.

OP here

Interesting thoughts, both of these people I consider my friend. I should not reciprocate feelings from one person because the other would feel bad, but in doing that I make the girl feel unwanted because she doesn't want someone else.

It's a lose lose situation, I made the right choice out of the two shit hands being dealt, in my outcome 1 person is sad instead of 2. Also I'm 26 years old, I don't need to teenage bro code shit, act like a fucking man instead of a little boy. Who leaves because they got "sad" goes home self-harms and then tells me about it trying to make me feel bad. That in itself shows the maturity levels I’m having to deal with no wonder she wasn't interested in him.

It sounds like you did the right thing. If he is unable to connect, and you additionally stay quite, you would have made it worse in these dynamics.

Darwin was right

Sounds like she won
