I'm very close friends with my brother's best friend. We both love games, anime, and such. We even hold hands when we're together. My friend Rachel says he is in love with me but he has a girlfriend. She's a senior and will be leaving after this year. He, on the other hand, is a junior. His girlfriend hates games and is clingy. Rachel says they don't seem very happy. I don't want to mess anything up between them, even though I do have feelings for him. Plus, I'm not even sure he feels the same! All I have to go by is spectators' opinions. Any advice?

We get along okay... we're not exactly friends but we far from hate each other.

but, like when it comes to him...anything that makes things a-little awkward?
other than that...what does he think of you?
besides a 'friend'

Well Neko, I hate romance too, but it sounds as if the two of you get on splendidly together. I guess the only solution is to tell him how you feel, or perhaps after his girlfriend leaves, he'll tell you how he feels about you if he is in love with you.
As for the girlfriend...well hmm...I dont know what to say, I'm not the clingy type, far from it, but if I were a guy, I suppose I'd hate the jealous, clingy girls...
I hope things work out for you, hon. Good luck!

Yeah, romance can really cause some icky situations. I suggest that you talk to your mate. Ask him if he's happy, not just with his girlfriend but with his life; make it a general question. You never know, there may be another problem you can assist him with. Tell him you're there to support him.
Also, confront him about these rumours of him being in love with you; ask him if it's true, but in a gentle, supportive way, so he won't get defensive. Make it clear that you want to be honest, and don't think any less of him if he does or doesn't. Tell him that, too! If it's true - and you care about him in the same way - you may be able to hit it off!
...Just remember, as clingy as she may be, his girlfriend has feelings, too!
