A dilema...

This is a dilema I'm not sure on what I should do. I'm just looking for a few impartial opinions.

I met a guy through an old friend on a night out. We clicked straight away and have seen each other a few times since.

Then when we arrange to meet again on a night out instead of going home with me as planned, he pulls a friend of mine (Someone i'm mates with but not best mates with). He is teh same age as me and we both go to the same uni, whereas she is only 16 and has only just done her GCSE's

They really seemed to hit it off and seemed closer than me and him did.

My dilema now is do I just back off and let them try for the relationship, and find someone else, OR do text/call him and jus continue like nothing's happened and see if we do have something but risk anoying the other girl

Any opinions are very much apreciated.
All Depends if they are an item or not

they have only known each other 2 days, ive known him a month.
well depends if you wanna get with a guy who seems to like to pull alot, by the sounds of it he is not interested in a relationship

the thing is i'm not either. All i wanna know is whether its wrong for me to still keep "seeing" him in anyway just coz he's shown interest in a mate. I'm not looking for anything serious yet but I don't want to regret it later either. I just dont wanna tread on my mates toes.
well your both single so really it's not wrong, but if it were to develop with him and your mate then thats different.
I'd speak to him and ask him whats going on with the other girl. say that you wont be offended if he wants to start something with her and you'd appreciate his honesty now so that you can hopefully continue to pursue a friendship with him once you know what the situation with him is romantically.

I'd probably try and suss out his "intentions" towards you: if he obviously wants you, maybe he just pulled this other girl knowing you'd find out to perhaps try and gauge your reaction? Just a thought..

I can't help thinking that if he pulled someone else, he's not that interested in you. Maybe I'm old fashioned, but if I'd arranged to meet someone and he got off with someone else, I'd be well pissed off. In my experience, if a man likes you and wants to have a relationship with you, he won't start snogging someone else, especially if she's a friend of yours.

Forget the relationship thing and just get to know him as a friend. If something's gonna happen, it will, cus you'll be attracted to each other because of your personalities. And if nothing happens, you'll still have a friend. There's nothing wrong with you making friends with this guy just cus he seems to like your friend.

Bah don't be a pussy and just go for it, you have nothing to lose really so why not try? Can't win the race if you're not in it and all that.....
Just find out where you stand with him and go from there. No point getting tangled up with a guy if he wants someone else, just a cause for heartbreak.

dilema solved. I took a chance and called him. He's not interested in my mate in a serious way and they both know it and agree on it.

Anyway thanks for the advice ppl.
