I heard her and the mutual friend fighting a little about her and her BF's relationship. Maybe it's going bad. What should I think about the fact that she has been chatting with me ever since we met? Is she just trying to be a buddy or is she interested in me? I'm not much for coming between 2 people. I just don't know why a girl would consistently talk to me if she has a BF, and I already told here I was interested in her the first time I met her.
OP:

Exactly what do you want from your friendship with her?

Exactly what does she want from her friendship with you?

So you told her that you were interested in her the first time you met her even though she has a boyfriend.

Exactly what do you expect to happen by telling her that?

Exactly what do you want to happen by telling her that?

Then you find out that her relationship may not be that great.

Exactly what do intend to do now that you know this?

Be honest with your answers.

People and relationships are very fluid. Just relax and go with the flow.

Meaning of course, don't behave in any way to interfere with her & bf. But you can stay friends with her.

Maybe she'll stay with her bf, maybe eventually she'll be single again.

Just hang on, be a good friend, who knows where it may go.

Question for women that think this way...why would you ever think a guy just want to be friends with you? Just because he doesn't ask you out right away? This must be why it's so easy to get thrown into the friend zone, women are assuming.

My two former guy friends told me that they wanted to be friends with me, so that's why I thought it. However, as years went on, it became clear that they wanted to push the boundaries of the friendship and I wasn't ok with that.

That was one person not the whole gender! Sheesh! Stop generalizing women. Every women is different just like every guy is different. And I have had guys who only wanted to be friends with me. It happens. Not all guys befriend women just to get something more out of them.

You clearly don't get it. Thoroughly reread my OP.

Be honest with your answers.
1) I want to see where it goes
2)I can't answer that. I'm not her.
3) So what
4)I dunno. Just to see what her response would be I guess
5) see #4
6) I would like to see where her head is at in regards to me.

Why would you be interested in a romantic pursuit with someone whos already in a relationship? Why are you coming between her and her boyfriend, yet pretend - with all your righteous bs about so-called respect - not to want who's taken when the opposite is true?

Walk away. You wanted to be her boyfriend, she has one. Lots of great single women out here.

Did you friend each other before or after you met in person? How long have you been talking to her?
