Nature of the relationship is that they haven't known each other for very long for being engaged (subjective, I know) and that from what she has told me he may be the first decent/healthy relationship she has had which might skew perceptions into thinking that the relationship is stronger than it is. Of course I know that I'm looking for justifications to pursue something, but I think the point is valid.
She is happy and I won't do anything to actively damage her relationship but my concern is that by simply spending time together as friends things might start to develop. I figure that when she gets back from visiting family in a few days we just need to have a frank discussion about this and whether she wants to continue hanging out knowing that I'm hoping for more or if we should make a clean break and remove all possibility.
