Drama Between Friends

What are the boundaries and rules when two friends like the same person? One rule is that they shouldn't let it affect their relationship as friends. The friends can't let another person come between them. They must not have issues with the other liking him too. I find that the fact that they both like the same person can actually bring them closer in a strange way. It allows them to see from the others point of view easier.
Another rule is that if the person they like happens to ask one of the friends(let's call them A) out, the other friend(and let's call them B) should be OK with this. B should be happy for the other friend because they both liked this person so much and they must be a great person. This rule is important because if A is asked out by the person, B should be happy for A because they are such good friends (and that's what friends do right? Be happy for each other!). B is allowed to be jealous though when A gets asked out, but can't let this jealousy get between them.
Another rule is that if A and the person break up, B shouldn't date them, or at least not right away. B should comfort A if they need it, and then after A is completely over this person and doesn't mind, B can date the person(if B still likes them). Person A shouldn't make it impossible for the them (B and the person) to date, because as friends A should want whats best for B and want B to be happy. As long as A and B think about each other's happiness and don't let a crush get in between them, everything should remain fine between them.
