Hi my name is Jess i have this really really close guy friend who has been my friend since 1st grade now he has a g/f and i dont like him but for some reason i feel jealous. Could anyone tell me y im jealous?
BehindBluEyes892 answered Wednesday October 27 2004, 3:52 pm: hey hey! ur probably jealous because since u have known him so long, u guys r really really close (im assuming..) so when he has a gf, maybe u think he'll be more close to her and not talk to u
OreoGirl answered Thursday September 2 2004, 10:56 am: its just probably because you want the best for him and your trying to look out for him like a sister. i feel that way about my friend too and its just like you dont want him to get hurt. just try and ignore it the best you can even tho its hard. theres nuthin u can really do about it.

Sunshine answered Thursday September 2 2004, 1:46 am: I think the reason you feel jealous, is until now you were the only woman in his life. Now there's competition for his attention. If you are lucky, she's a good person and you will become friends. Don't think of it as losing your friend, but gaining another friend. [ Sunshine's advice column | Ask Sunshine A Question ]
tbdrays17 answered Wednesday September 1 2004, 10:47 pm: you're probably just jealous because theres another main girl in his life and you arent getting as much attention. that shouldnt be a problem though because he should have time for both of you. its normal to be jealous but eventually you'll get used to it. good luck [ tbdrays17's advice column | Ask tbdrays17 A Question ]
Airie answered Wednesday September 1 2004, 10:31 pm: yur probably jealous becuz u miss all the attention he wuz giving u. Although u dont like him, u still miss him and yur not used to him paying more attention to any other girl [ Airie's advice column | Ask Airie A Question ]
Evilfairy577 answered Wednesday September 1 2004, 10:22 pm: Maybe cuz he doesnt hang out as much with you anymore becuz he is so inot being with her and spending time with her. Hang out with your other guy friends and try to be happy for him!

daNceRz_KiSs_27 answered Wednesday September 1 2004, 8:10 pm: well... what i supposse it is is that maybe you do like him but you just haven't realiuzed it yet.
Ask yourself this... Do you think about him REALLY often when your not with him? You want to hang out with him ALL the time? Do you feel like choking his girlfriend or something like that? Well if you answered yes to these questions then you oviously like him, but if you said no to these then that means your probably care about him as a brother ofcourse and just feeling protective. Which if absoulutely fine, but try not to feel jelous cause you never know it could get in the way of you relationship with him. [ daNceRz_KiSs_27's advice column | Ask daNceRz_KiSs_27 A Question ]
BlueEyedBlondie725 answered Wednesday September 1 2004, 6:25 pm: Hi Jess! Well, since you don't like him like that, the whole jealousy might be that you're afraid of losing him as a friend. You might think that, that girl will steal him away from you and you two won't talk or something. I had that problem with one of my close guy friends. The girl didn't like me because we always talked, so she didn't like him talking to me. Long story, but to make it short, I talked to him because we had been in a fight all week about it. So, if you want, try talking to him and just being like "You know we've been friends since 1st grade and I don't like you like that, but for some reason I'm jealous that you have a girlfriend and I think the reason why I'm jealous is because I don't want this girl to take our friendship away from each other, I don't want her to be the reason why we don't talk or hang out anymore..." Just say something like that and go from there. Hope this helps. If you need anything else, just post a message in my inbox.
funkychick107 answered Wednesday September 1 2004, 4:44 pm: you could feel jealous because now hes spending more time w/ his g/f then with you. you also might like him a little, even if you dont think you do. You probably want him to hang out with you alot, and he isnt because of his g/f. Talk to him! Hope I helped! [ funkychick107's advice column | Ask funkychick107 A Question ]
Thickbabyie4u answered Wednesday September 1 2004, 4:29 pm: Because you would give the world just to be with that person. And no matter how many times you tell them how much you care for them, they shoot you with the same speech "I like you better as a friend" Believe me, I have been through the same thing. The only thing you can do is move on. Try not to be around him when his girlfriend is there....that's what I have to do. But yeah, see if you can move on cause you are the one who knows how you really feel about him, and I guess he dosen't wanna discover it. I hope I help! God Bless, Good Luck! Beebyes!

EnchantedSage answered Wednesday September 1 2004, 4:27 pm: It's a natural response to feel jealous of your friend's new relationship, even if you are not romantically interested. If you have been friends since first grade, then you undoubtedly have a close connection with this guy. On some level, his new relationship is a potential threat to your friendship with him (the time you spend together, the amount of attention he is able to give you, etc.) However, you should strongly resist the temptation to sabatoge things with this new girl. You may have influence over him, but if he feels like you are abusing his friendship or manipulating him, you may end of losing your friend altogether. The best you can do is be supportive of him and try to find ways to stay in his day-to-day life without intruding on his new relationship. There will come a time when you have a new love in your life and will want to focus all your time and attention on your boyfriend, but ultimately, you will want your "friend since first grade" to be there for you when you need him. So, show him that same respect now. Your feelings of jealousy are natural but you can control whether or not they get the best of you. Best of luck to you.

xForeverxForgottenx answered Wednesday September 1 2004, 4:20 pm: maybe you feel this way because now she might become his best friend too. and you might just be looking out for him since you've been friends for a while. you dont want to see him get hurt you know? you just dont want to lose him and you think that you might...that would be my guess anyway. hope i helped. :-) [ xForeverxForgottenx's advice column | Ask xForeverxForgottenx A Question ]
liddylflirtx3 answered Wednesday September 1 2004, 4:00 pm: Maybe deep down you felt like you and this guy friend were really close - and that since you're older you were hoping that the two of you could hook-up. But, now that he has a different close girl in his life, you're probably jealous because he's with her most of the time and not you.
accolade answered Wednesday September 1 2004, 3:59 pm: i know what you mean. you've never really been romantically interested in him... but then, you've always ben the only girl in his life, even if h wasn't going out with you. he's got a new best friend that's a girl, and you feel jealous cause you're not the only one anymore (I KNOW you don't like him like that... but that's really just how it works). You're probably happy for them, but then you know that he spends more time with her than he does with you.

HappyAdvice answered Wednesday September 1 2004, 3:17 pm: You are probably jelous because you have known him for so long and you can't picture him with a girl friend. Also, you probably don't want him to get hurt. Its okay to try to protect him, but you have to let him make his own desicions like he would with you. [ HappyAdvice's advice column | Ask HappyAdvice A Question ]
XoKaKeYxO answered Wednesday September 1 2004, 2:54 pm: HeY HuN -
you might feel this way because you never pictured seeing him,your bestfriend, with, another girl or girlfriend.you may not be jelous you might just be confused for some reason.if hes your bestfriend, you should be happy for him!
joolaygurl89 answered Wednesday September 1 2004, 1:51 pm: All your life, you have been his "main girl"...even if you weren't going out. Now that he has another girl in his life, it might take a little time to adjust to. Don't worry...he won't forget about you. Be happy for him.
