I'm 15 years old & get very jealous of my best friend's other friends. I've known her forever and I'm always scared some other girl is going to come along and become her new best friend. It's happened before and it wasn't that great. So now she has this new friend who's taking up all her time & she doesn't even know her that well! I feel like I'm 2nd to her & I'm so left out. Everytime I try to talk to her about it she says I'm being silly or whatever. I don't know what to do or say anymore!
flirterchicky answered Saturday July 24 2004, 4:09 pm: thats happened here before, well not the whole jealous part, but i have lost some good best friends.. but listen, you cant get stuck in the past... everything changes, and you have 2 learn to go with the fLOw.. when i first realized me and my friend were drifting apart, yeah it was sad, but u cant let that get you down, i mean she makes new friends, and you will too.. dont focus too much on winning her back, she can share her time with other people, too.. its not all about you, but be grateful for wut u once had, and all the memories that are stuck in your head.. and also be grateful for what you have now, @ least it didnt turn out like what you see in the movies, or TV shows...yah know? 2 chicks used 2 be best friends back in the day, and then the one gets different friends and becomes all popular, and the other remains a loser with new dorky best friends (take lizzie mcguire for example, lol) so dont let that happen 2 u unless shes bein rude 2 u about it, ok? continue in your friendship with her, but also leave some room for growth with new friends.... and just remember that she*ll always be there for you even tho she has new friends as well
puppyluver9000 answered Friday July 23 2004, 11:22 pm: I think your friend might just not realize what you are trying to say. If she does get another best friend she never realized she had a good concerned friend like you. I have had this happen to me before a lot. It is a part of life. If you feel left out you shouldn't.Try to have fun with another friend of yours. Ask your friend to meet this new friend of hers who knows you might end up all of you being best friends! ^^ I hope I have helped if you have anymore questions please ask me!! ^_^ ~ puppyluver9000 [ puppyluver9000's advice column | Ask puppyluver9000 A Question ]
Cody answered Friday July 23 2004, 10:13 pm: truthfully your worrying about this way too much....if this girl was ever your best friend don't worry about it all. If she was actually a best friend shes not going to just ditch you (permenantly that is) see the thing is when you meet knew people(in this case when your freind met her new friend) you are initially more interested in them becuase the way they talk act and feel are all new and interesting to you....but actually in this situation the best thing(in my opinion) to do would be to start hanging out with both of them....like say your best freind says "me and xxxxx are goin to the mall" just ask if she minds if you go too, and obviously if she is any kind of best friend she will say of course. This way you get to still hang out with your best friend but you might also make a new friend.......win win [ Cody's advice column | Ask Cody A Question ]
KiSsEs answered Friday July 23 2004, 8:55 pm: I think you should tell your friend how you feel again, but this time let her knoe your serious. I've been in a situation like that but you really just have to realize that as you grow older you grow apart. It's not anything that you really wanna admitt to...but it happens! You still have all the memories to last a lifetime! just try and make new friends [ KiSsEs's advice column | Ask KiSsEs A Question ]
ArisuStarr answered Friday July 23 2004, 8:48 pm: I know how you feel about that....(I'm 15, too) and we just sort of...drifted apart. It's sucky, but there's nothing you can do...eventually, you'll find other friends who are more devoted to you and all that....
It's hard on you to be jealous, but it's even harder to confront her about it. Which is why you should do it XD [ ArisuStarr's advice column | Ask ArisuStarr A Question ]

MaGiCLyDeLiSh88 answered Friday July 23 2004, 7:22 pm: Omg! I have the same feeling with alot of my friends. I always think that when my friend meetes another friend she is gonna leave me out and I think on of my friends just did that to me. I think we should just hoipe for the best and try to keep in contact with them. I hate when they are silly but you gotta try. [ MaGiCLyDeLiSh88's advice column | Ask MaGiCLyDeLiSh88 A Question ]
