Moral advice

Please keep this post anonymous or delete it.

I had been going out with a girl at an A-Level college for a year, it was a very poor experience for both of us. She had a boyfriend at the same but also liked me a bit more than a friend. I had been too pushy, impatient and indeed immature too, looking back. We finished the relationship in a very, very bad way two years ago. But still we email/see each other every three months at max.

At the time of chasing her, I tried to go through the backdoor, the old trick - getting her best friend to help me out. Her soul mate was in her country, Northern Europe, but she disliked me so much over the phone and MSN at the time. One day she came over to London(2 years ago), she suddenly changed her attitude and apparently really fancied me. Ever since, she tried to flirt a lot on MSN.

Yesterday, we met again as she flied to see the girl this summer, and three of us sat down for a coffee. Afterwards, I just wanted to be friendly and took her to see my university and stuff. We(two) then went to a park and enjoyed the Sun for a bit. I had/wanted to leave, and she started to become really upset and said that she wouldn't find way home and all these girly stuff. No guy would leave a girl like this.

At the end, I offered her a nice hug and it lasted for ages and we ended up feeling up each other. We kissed. Later in the evening, she sent me an email - "it is been one of the most beautiful days." I didn't reply.

I am not very attracted to her for
1) She is almost 6ft and I am 6.2ft, and I fear that she will be taller than me two years down the line..
2) She is this girl's best friend. I feel it's immoral to do anything like this. Moreover I failed to get the first girl and it just looks pathetic to move on to her friend.
3) She is a very smart person, but her personality is not my type.

I had the feeling that she would seduce me at some point and it all happened yesterday. I don't want to hurt her. I don't know if I should tell the girl I liked two years ago what happened. I don't know if the whole story is really messed up and I should just stop talking to both of them. I need your advice - people over 18s please.

Why did you feel her up and kiss her if you feel no attraction for her? It doesn't seem very nice, to lead her on like that. It takes two to tango, so you can't just sit back and say 'she seduced me', as if you weren't to blame at all.
Not to mention she had a boyfriend anyway.

That's her commitment, not his.
What does it matter if she grows taller than you anyway?
Heh, you felt each other up but weren't attracted to her, and you want moral advice?

Tell her you're not attracted to her. If you were, then the right thing to do would be to ignore the fact that she'll grow taller than you and so on. But you're obviously not, so tell her that, and let her decide what she wants to do.

It seems that this isnt a relationship that will ever work out for you so stop flirting with her and stuff. Dont lead the poor girl on.

Thanks for the advice. I didn't lead her on too much. I recall that she was the first to feel me up and I didn't stop either.. My question is what shall I do next without hurting anyone?

Oh, why does it matter if she grows taller than me? Go and ask your male friends why. She is the kind of girl I don't mind having a bit of fun with, without committement if you know what I mean.

Sort of man. But I do need people's advice as to how I should talk to her again.
Honesty.

I'm not too sure about this height thing though. I mean you're over 6ft. No-one will look at you two and think "wtf" - althugh they probably already look at the lass and think "shes tall!"

Cheers. Come on man, a girl over 6ft is bloody intimidating man. Imagine she gets pissed off at me one day and beat me up at KFC or something.. So I was thinking to take what she offers before she hit that tall. But I still have a bit of moral issues left in the head. Besides, I don't get to meet girls at my uni and she kind of distresses me a bit at the moment.

Generally speaking, I think the further a girl strays from 5'2 the less attractive she becomes. 6' is a fairly long way away.

Obviously there are other physical factors as well, but speaking solely of height.
Hey, leave the shorties for us mate! :smile:.

But seriously, as long as you are both open about what's going on everything will be easier. If you both want a bit of fun in the interim - it's not particulary morally wrong. However if you feel you need to be in a meaningful relationship first, you know what you gotta do.

meh - I wouldn't mind going for someone my hieght - kinda have to as not many shorter :rolleyes:.
Why is she letting you flirt with her if she already has a boyfriend?

I am sorry about the confusion. GirlB is GirlA's best friend. GirlA was the girl I was after, two years ago and who also had a bf. But GirlB obviously likes me..

I felt it was a bit dodge that she is GirlA's best friend and that I am doing something with her after I failed to get GirlA. You see what I mean? A bit of man's dignity is involved in this.
Oh - Well ask the people involved. It'll be awkward but I have a feeling you are already feeling awkward!

you worry too much and think too much. Whats it got to do with the girl that you liked 'two years ago' if u dont fancy this other girl, dont pull her again. simple as that.
