Started casually dating a girl in fall and am still dating this new girl, but pretty positive we are both just in it for the moment, nothing long term. Girl that is a friend knows this and whenever we talk she tells me I deserve better, etc... she knows I'm not completely happy. Recently I asked her if there was anything between us, and her immediate response was she didn't want to get in the middle of me and this girl. Which I understand, and would never date 2 girls at once.. Then I respond that I am sorry for even asking this sensing I might have been completely off base and feeling bad since I am dating someone at the moment... Then her next response is, "I guess I've never thought of you in that way." Next time I see her in person, I again say I am sorry for putting her in this position, and she says don't be sorry and that she is worried about me and that I need to figure out my situation. What do you guys make of this?
25% chance she's honest
25% she's toying with you
50% chance she's jealous or a hater.

move on with both of them

There is really one way to find out for sure. If/when you make a break with your current girl, ask your friend out on a date and make clear it's a date and see what she says. If she hesitates or makes excuses, then you know that avenue is closed to you.

i want to go to such and such restaurant my favorite and then you see the bus boy has got that hungry look that comes with not being fed 4 days in a row, and she tries to act like she does not know him.

Haha Well this is great. I have become even more confused with all of the responses. Every new post could be valid. And again I appreciate everyone that has taken the time to give me advice... Thank you

My gut is telling me to stop seeing my current girl. We are good together, but in reality it's most likely not something that will be forever. I have no idea if I even have a chance with my friend, but in the end I think it's worth the gamble. While my intuition has been way off with women before, I think this girl is worth me risking being wrong another time.

Thanks to all!

These are two separate issues, don't link them together! With your current girl, are you happy with her? Do you see yourself with her a year from now? If not, it may be better to break it off with her now. With your friend, see my previous post. Good luck

I'm glad you're going to take a gamble with the girl you really like, and I hope that it works out. You should always go for what you really want in life; don't ever settle and wonder what might have been. And if it doesn't work out with her, it wasn't meant to be and there's someone out there that's better for you. It might take a while to find her, but if you keep a positive attitude, you will. I'm keeping my fingers crossed for you and wish you the best!
