I think we need some more information before we can give you any feedback. How old are you? How old is your friend's mom? Does she still have children living at home and, if so, how old are they? If the mom was interested in you, but it caused the end of your friendship with your BFF, would you we willing to risk that? Are you financially stable? Is she?

Since you are a junior in high school, I think it might be a big problem. Maybe it is normal to feel attracted to her, but maybe one of those crushes that is better left alone.

Sounds like maybe she is just lonely if she is talking to you about her personal business. It doesn't sound like the healthiest stuff going on. I would probably try to chalk it up to not having someone to talk to and lack of boundaries but I don't know about the interest or intent part. Maybe distance myself from her a little for a while. It doesn't seem very appropriate for her to be discussing her marital issues with her son's high school friend to me.

Agreed. If you're underage, that's one complication that doesn't need to be messed with. She's married still and clearly is not about to leave her husband right now. In the case of a woman (or man) that's married, that someone has a crush on: I would give the same advice, and this is even if you were of age. Leave it alone. A crush on an older woman is perfectly normal but it's the temptation to do something about it that you want to avoid. If she's talking to you about not wanting to be in her marriage, that is inappropriate to be talking to you about. Like anika said, she seems to have a problem with boundaries. In the extreme case where you did say something, find out she does have an attraction to you, even in that case, it would be complications in your life you really don't need, especially at your age. Plus do you really want a lady that would consider leaving her committed relationship, her marriage for another person? Who's to say she wouldn't get tired of the next one and do that all again? Personally I couldn't trust a woman that left her SO of any kind for me. Find someone available!
