what to do?

hey i'm looking for advice on the following situation. i'll try keep it as short as possible.

met a guy a good while ago through a friend, when i moved to a new area for college . we socialised in the same circle, saw each other round college. i started to develop feelings for this guy. He began to get more friendly/affectionate towards me and i began to think maybe my feelings were reciprocated. We were out one night, he'd had a bit too much to drink and blurted out that he fancied me. i was flattered but presumed it was just drunk talk, made a joke about it and brushed it off. A few days later he asked a friend if i was seeing anyone. the following few nights out the attraction(for want of a better word) between us was obvious, it was like we were both just waiting for the other to make a move, but i just couldn't work up the nerve. Anyway i'd decided to just go for it and was going to tell him how i felt the next time i had the chance. So i picked the night i was going to tell him, we'd all been invited to a mutual friends birthday and i was on the way to his house with my friend when his name came up in conversation, she told me he'd just started seeing someone. it was so out of the blue i was crushed. I saw them kissing on the street the next day. So 2 months later and as far as i know they're still seeing one another, he's never brought her on group nights out or even mentioned her in conversation.

Long story short i'm leaving in a few months and i want to tell him how i feel, my heads telling me im being a selfish cow even considering it when he's seeing someone but a part of me thinks i've nothing to lose by telling him. Is there any point? or should i leave well enough alone?

When you say you're leaving in a few months do you mean for good? If so, I see little reason to break up his relationship with his girlfriend if you're not sticking around anyway.

Dunno, tell him if you want. Maybe he'll be flattered. Maybe he'll leave her for you. Maybe he'll say that although he likes you, he's going out with someone else. He probably won't lose the head and get upset at you though since he already told you how he felt, so I guess you might as well just mention it to him.

What exactly are you hoping to achieve by telling him?

Should of told him when you had the chance, now you've got no chance of getting any. Unless he's into threesomes, then go for it.

What have you got to lose?
