What is a Friend to Do. . . . . . . . . . . . .

What is a friend to do when their friendship is in jeopardy of being ruined by the possibility of a blossoming or growing relationship? Relationships are something that can take a toll on the people in them as well as the people connected to the couple, but I'm not too sure that this certain situation would be one that I would handle too well.

My friend has been known to naturally display signs of interest even though they may not be interested in a person at all. Lately it has been seeming as if things might go further than what they would usually go. The person they "may" be interested in isn't the typical person that they would normally be attracted to and has some qualities about them that I have been told by my friend directly that they didn't like. Periodically we talk about this and come to the conclusion that nothing would go on between the two. It's been a while since we had the conversation so I'm debating on whether or not i should talk to them about it. I was told by a trust worthy and very reliable source that they were kissing and that this person begged my friend to come with them instead of ridding with me. Me being the good friend hasn't been what people may call cock blocking or ruining a playa's game, but this is my Best Friend we're talking about. I've been giving my friend space and not being too far into their business but it seems as if there may be an underlined agenda that I believe needs to be revealed. Investigating and not letting them be alone would be wrong on my part and may push my friend away, but being too distant may just do the exact opposite.

I've come to the conclusion of just trusting my friend. Leaving the decision ultimately up to them, and if they want, need, or ask for my advice or opinion I will be there to give that information willingly. It's their life. I'm the best friend and I'm just here to be there for them through the good and the bad no matter what.

I really don't know why, but I just don't feel as if this is a good thing for them and I just care too much about them to let them get hurt. (Don't let the proper-ness fool you I will get down and bang for the ones I love!!!)
