for another person.

So you have an option of going on a date with someone who you know has feelings for another person, they are upfront and honest about it.
You don't know what could come out of the date obviously, but is it worth putting yourself on the line when you usually don't, with someone that is really into another person?
Aren't you just setting yourself up for failure?

Opinions please.

well, if that were me, id tell em to go do their thing,
and if and when they are over that "other person," they are welcome to see if i am free...otherwise, id say bye bye and don't contact me until then.

What's up bro?

I would say, YES, it's setting yourself up for failure - unless you are resigned, in all honesty, that you can only be friends. And that is tough indeed, especially when she's deliciously tasty.

I wouldn't want to go out with someone who had feelings for someone else because it would be such torture to feel so strongly for someone and want something good to come of it so badly and then know that the whole time they were with you, they really wanted to be with someone else. How tragic! tears

I'd say you're definitely setting yourself up for failure, although I think it also depends on how strong the feelings are for the other person. If it's just some small fantasy of theirs, it could be harmless.

Personally, I wouldn't want to play second fiddle to anyone. It's a crappy place to be. Everyone should have the confidence to want to be with someone who thinks they're the best thing ever.

Everyone has intense feelings for another person.

It's the risk, dating deals with hopes and ghosts.

Just get to know them, and then they'll tell you their emotional centers. Keep being yourself, and if there is another time together, and another, then you become on of those people that they have feelings for.

Nobody is a void, as a general rule.

you see, feelings change and if they want to go out with you
then there may be some strange feelings or uncontrollable
feelings or mixed feelings. there are her feelings and
his feelings so you know it kinda depends on the
circumstances and what the meaning of the word "dating" is

laugh

or, you can just read "Hustler" until feelings are
"less urgent"!

yah yah i know, such a big HELP...sorry about that...

If the other person has feelings for another, why are they going out with you? That tells me they aren't too sure of their feelings for the other person and they are just testing the waters. I could be wrong, but that's how I see it.ohwell

I say go for it. If she has feelings for someone else, and she's still taking the time to talk to you late at night instead of him, her feelings probably aren't that strong... she obviously still wants to take a chance on you if she's spending her time talking to you about it... just my opinion...
