I’ve (27M) been dating Kate (28F) for a month, she’s great however I’ve been recently catching feelings for a longtime friend - Emily (29F). I lost someone very close over a year ago and she’s been taking care of me ever since. Checking up on me and hanging out together every so often. I have now caught feelings. The thing is with Kate, I kinda do see us going somewhere long-term. However right now Emily has started to be on my mind a lot. And honestly - if Emily were to reciprocate feelings than I would rather be with Emily. This territory I’m in is really unfair to Kate, who is really great.
Im thinking I have to tell Emily how I feel as soon as possible. To see if anything could happen. If nothing, then I’ll continue.
Two things though:
- I just feel sucky to be downgrading Kate to a ‘backup’ girl.
- I think it’s more likely that feelings won’t be reciprocated with Emily. And if so I run a higher risk of things being weird between us as friends or possibly even losing a good friend?
Should I tell Emily? Worth the risk of things getting weird/losing a really good friend?
