My best friend stole the guy

Ok, so I had liked this guy (who happens to be a very good friend of mine) for a long while and my best friend knew. Then, the other day she comes out and tells me that she likes him too. Being the good friend that I am and not wanting to start any conflict, I backed off and told her I didn't care for him as much anymore (all of which was a load of rubbish) Two days later, I was kicking myself for not ever telling him how I felt and letting her take him. Then she announces to me that they are dating. Apparently, they had talked on the phone and he liked her too. I feel betrayed by her and feel sick to my stomach everytime I see them together. I feel like no one is on my side and when I gave him a hug today, I nearly burst into tears on his shoulder. She knows that it bothers me, yet I can't find it in myself to be mad at her. I keep telling her everything's alright when I know it's not. What should I do? I also can't help but think that maybe he never liked me because his best friend has a major crush on me. Everyone tells me that I'm thinner than my friend, prettier than her, more agreeable and yet she always wins the guy This isn't the first time she's done this to someone either...

Don't speak to her again.

Oh excellent, if Mr Darcy happens by I'm sure you'll be in for a good seeing-to.

Listen to that song by son of dork called Holly im the one its exactly your situation!!

Ok, so here's what happened. I did give her the ok, but the next day when she asked me if it was ok, I told her that I'd lied the day before and that I wasn't. Yet she still proceeded to date him.

You shouldn't have told him you wasn't that keen on him anymore, because that obviously could have been interpreted as your permission to let her go for him. I think you need to talk to her and explain you still like him, because otherwise she will think everything she's doing is fine because you aren't into him anymore.

I didn't tell him anything. He still has no idea that I ever liked him and she knows that I'm not fine with what's going on. Even though they're dating now, I had told her my feelings before he even confessed that he liked her back! I really felt betrayed by her. If she had liked a guy and I began liking him too, I would have never told her and would have forced myself to stop for her. She told me and I acted totally composed and fine, but I know that if I had done the same thing to her, she would have hit the fan
