When I was in 10th grade, there was a freshman girl at my high school that I had a thing for. As a lot of you probably know, I didn't have a girlfriend in high school. So, needless to say, I never dated her.
One of my friends in high school was also a grade behind me, just like this girl. Of course he knew I had a thing for her. After I graduated, they started dating. Do you think he purposely waited until I graduated so I wouldn't get jealous? Or do you think it's just a coincidence that their relationship started after I graduated?
I've heard other people say they want to date someone but they don't because they have a friend that's also interested in her and "they could never do that to their friend"
She was a free agent so he was well within his rights to get with her at anytime. So I don't see it as an act of friendship just because he waited because he probabaly liked her as much as you did.
Of the 2 of you, you are the one that talks and thinks a lot and he is the one who listens and gets the girl. Ce la vie!
I hate to use the term "bro code" but I feel like that is a violation of it. Even worse is dating a good friend's ex, that's just over the top to be frank.
Folks who break that 'code', to me, are the prime example of "with friends like these, who needs enemies?"
Sounds to me like your friend had the courage that you lacked. I never found a girlfriend that i didnt try for! Man up dude! Or its going to happen to you again and again!

Both you and CD need to have a reality check. Both of you are young but you have all these "rules" on what people should and shouldn't do.
Let's get this straight. CD never had the girl because he wouldn't make the first move and as a friend, he waited for you to make a move and you didn't. He decided since you didn't take any action with the girl, he would asked the girl out so there was no "bro code" broken.
You only have a "limited time" for the bro code and then it's broken.
souns like nothing to fret over and he did nothing wrong.
Sounds like you never even tried, so you had no dibs on her. I'll sometimes call dibs on a girl im actively trying to get, and most friends respect that. "bro code" doesnt apply here, its been too long

The level of narcissism here is ridiculous. City, I can promise you that you were the last thing on this fellow's mind when he asked that girl out.
Seriously. Sounds harsh, but the vast majority of the people you run into in this life will not give a flying fart at a rolling donut about you, what you think, or how you feel about something. You're just not going to be a consideration in everyone else's lives. Get used to it.

To be honest, I don't think either one of them had a single thought of you in mind at all when they started dating.
your opportunity had a shelf life and it expired when your friend took it. Your loss. Next time, if you really like a girl, remember, there are other guys wanting her too...so pursue her before someone else does.
