I like a girl who has a boyfriend; what do I do?

There’s a girl that I like that has a boyfriend. I began to have feelings for her recently and I can’t shut them out. I feel guilty for liking her when she already likes someone else… Is this a sin? I don’t do or say anything to cross the line of being just friends. Should I tell her how I feel? If she likes me after my confession then is it a sin? Am I tearing them apart by letting her know my feelings?

Hi,

I think you know what to do. You need to not interfere. We all need to do unto others as we would like them to do unto us. If you were her boyfriend, you would not want another guy telling her about his attraction to her. She would be off limits for him as she actually is for you. There will be other girls.
