Help! Friend/Love Advice please!?

About 3 weeks ago, my friend (lets call him Matt) told me that he liked my best friend. When I heard that, I thought back to about two years ago when my best friend said that she liked him, so I asked her (without giving away that Matt liked her now) if she still liked him and she said no.
Then two nights ago, me and my best friend we're talking about our love lives (since we have no boyfriends) and Matt came up in the subject randomly. Again, she told me that she didn't like him and could not date him because of certain reasons (I'm not going to state those reasons).
So, knowing how my best friend feels about Matt, should I tell him what I fouled out? Or should I just let him find out for himself?

Well this is a hard one because you dint want him to get his hopes up but you also dint want him to get heartbroken.
I think its best if you have a talk with him and tell him you found out Your friend isn't ready for a relationship and that its best if he doesn't worry about it too much.
You can prevent him from having hopes and being hurt even more in the future.

well sometimes letting him find out on his own is best. But in this situation i would tell him personally so that he doesn't get crushed. Maybe you should see what the reasons are that she don't like him anymore and see if you can help her overlook them. And I would tell her that he likes her just to see if that sudden spark that she once had for him comes back.

Go ahead and prevent him from making a fool of himself he can always find some1 who really does like him.
