Dear Breakup Girl,

Is a friend's crush off-limits for dating?

--Japhy

Dear Japhy,

By you? Right now? On purpose? Yes.

Especially if you're just talking about some sort of flingamajig.

But if something spotaneously/mutually combusts into a absolutely-undeniably-meant-to-be sort of conflagration -- and if you are more than careful and conscientious --your friend will just have to cope. Just remember: ideally, we try to meet People through friends; we try not to lose friends because of People.

Love,
Breakup Girl
