BRAW/AITA – Leading Someone On Because I Want Their Friend

1 min read

The Situation

I have been on nights out with a friend and his friends, but I’m scared I’ve only been invited because he fancies me, which my friends think is the case. The only problem is that I don’t want to stop hanging out with them because I actually enjoy his friend’s company more than his, and I fancy one of his friends, but this is the only way I can be in a social setting with that friend. AITA?

BRAW’s opinion

Yeah, you’re horrible for this. Just talk to the person you want, honestly. You can’t lead this poor person on because they are your only way to see this person you fancy. If you communicate that you like hanging out with this group of people but don’t want to be with the original person who brought you in, you may get what you want in the long run. This definitely won’t happen if you keep lying and leading this person on. Don’t go tearing up this friend group for your own desires. YTA.
