my one friend got a boyfriend (my best friend of a long time)a couple of months back. at first i was esctatic! what more could i ask for?!? my two GREAT friends dating. right? wrong. my girl friend quickly became one of my best friends. and my guy friend slowly became almost like an acquaintance. im sad to be losing such a close friend of mine. he always ignores me and never has any time for me anymore. my girl friend is almost the same way. i'm feeling left out and confused. then there was a tragedy in my family.and i was terribly sad.(still am) all my friends became closer to help me through this rough time. i dont want this to be the reason that they want to be with me. i talked to my friends but nothing changed. how do i ask them to change? or is there anything i can do?

The best way to not lose either of your friends is hang out with each one seperatly and talk to them. Tell your girl friend you feel like your losing her as a friend because of her boyfriend and vice versa. There isnt really anything you can do, you just have to have trust in your friends that they will keep being your friend and not leave you out. If they arent inviting you to hang out, then invite them to your house to chill and watch movies or swim. Theres also a teen nightclub where I live and if you have one around you invite them there too or even just the girl or guy! Spend time with them and if they arent doing the calling, maybe you should.
The best advice I can give it talk to them and you said you already did that. Maybe do it more seriously and in person and try to really make them understand where you are coming from. Its hard losing a friend, trust me. I'm definitly the one to know :-/ Good luck sweetie!! I hope I helped..
