I'm just looking to vent. If you want to add something, be my guest.

I like three people.

One of them is my ex-boyfriend who just broke up with his girlfriend.

Then there is another boy that I've met at school. He may like me, too. I'm not sure yet, but lately we've gotten closer and there was an incident that's been driving me crazy. Yesterday I was chatting with a friend on facebook and he was there with my friend. My friend then typed "[guy] says you're beautiful." I just wrote back "haha" like he was joking. My mind wants to believe that comment, but I've been spending the entire time since then convincing myself that they were just joking (considering my profile picture is one of Robert Downey Jr).

And then there is a girl. We had a thing, but it kind of ended, but we were still good friends. Recently she's been talking to me some more and showing interest.

If all these options are actually available, I have no clue what I'm gonna do :(

I think forget the ex boyfriend; he's just broken up, and you don't want to be the 'rebound'. Also, gettign back with an ex is always a bit risky.

If you can trust them, perhaps ask the friend who posted on your facebook whether the second guy was serious or not. If it's for real, then maybe ask him for coffee?

With the girl, again, be wary of exes; what was the reason you broke up the first time? If you genuinely fancy each other though and are willing to give it another shot, then sure, why not.

The girl we weren't official, so it wasn't a break up really. We just stopped doing the stuff we did, but still hung out.

Go for variety. It helps you gain broader perspective over time. Forget the ex.

ooohhh.... ex's are dangerous territory...tread lightly. When I went to college my dad told me to always have 7 or 8 bfs. That way I'd always have something to do and dinner...lol! So, being the literal person I am, I took that advice and I had a great time. There was even one relationship where I had two boyfriends at the same time who were best friends and a girlfriend with whom I had an open relationship. I say have your cake and eat it too. If somebody doesn't like it, move on. If you decide to go my route, be very selective and very clear with them all so everyone understands what's going on (hurt feelings are to be avoided). I also made it clear to anyone I went out with that if they ever gave me any bs or drama it was over. I wanted to have fun and I certainly did. :)

Maybe hold off on the girl to wait a bit for the new guy.

Exes can be tricky...

If the chick drifted away b4, it may happen again... I personally don't care for 1/2 interested pursuits...

Sounds like you really wanna know whether this guy finds you beautiful :wink:
