Too many people attempting to apply logic to the situation. If the buddy's feelings are hurt or he just doesn't like the situation, he has not contractual obligation to continue hanging out with you or being a friend. That's just the way it is. You risk losing a friend anytime you date their ex or even somebody he wanted to date but never did.
OP is aware of that or he wouldn't be asking. Proceed with caution, but continued friendship is far from guaranteed if you do.
