If you really like this girl and you want to persue something, go for it! Ask your friends to try to understand. Maybe if they hang out with her her they'll see taht she really is cool. If not, then I would question my friendship with them. A friend's gotta be more understanding than that! [ basketballgal's advice column | Ask basketballgal A Question ]

tink17 answered Thursday October 7 2004, 1:23 am: okay sweets i think if you really like this girl then your friends should support you. they cant tell you who you like. i mean im sure if they got to know her they might see her as the person she is. and they might even become friends with her too. i think its great that you are talking to her because being new is hard and most new people dont have many friends. hope i helped. **tink** [ tink17's advice column | Ask tink17 A Question ]
justagirlxo answered Thursday October 7 2004, 1:15 am: Why is it that your friends hate her? This sounds to me like they're jealous because you've got a girl, not only a girl, but an OLDER girl comin' after you ;) lol. You shouldn't have to lie to them about how you feel about her. You're friends are probably just afraid of the unfamiliar. So what i would do is bring this girl around your friends.. have her bring a couple of her friends [even if she's new, i'm sure she has a couple] and just hang out with everyone. You're friends should come around.
Farren answered Thursday October 7 2004, 12:53 am: Tell your friends the truth. You should never have to lie to your friends. I see this happen all to often in my high school.
Maybe invite her to hang out with your friends, and they might change their opinions.
I think you should go for it. She seems like a cool girl. Although, make sure she isn't toying with you. There is this girl I know in one of my classes, and guys always hit on her, and she leads them on and then talks bad about them after they leave (she's a good person, she just doesn't realize what she's doing, some people just need time to mature). So yeah, if she isn't an attention whore, I think you'll be fine together ^_^

Witty answered Thursday October 7 2004, 12:47 am: Well as long as you like her, that's all that matters. Don't pass up on a girl u find pretty cool just because your friends don't. It's not fare to her, and it's not fare to you. Maybe if you let your friends no what it is about her you like and if they see the good qualities in her, who know, they might end up being her friend and her being theirs.

XxemmaxX answered Wednesday October 6 2004, 9:38 pm: who cares what your friends think their just being immature, show her around school and introduce her to people I think she'll like that, and if you get closer ask her out. [ XxemmaxX's advice column | Ask XxemmaxX A Question ]
BlueEyedBlondie725 answered Wednesday October 6 2004, 9:14 pm: Hi! That's really cool that you like her for her and not just by the way she looks. But, if you like her, don't worry about what other people think. You can't control who you like. I mean, since you are a boy, boys are going to make fun of one another when a girl calls. Even if they thought she was so hot, they would still make fun of you, they would dawg on you and stuff. My guy friends still do that to one another, its just a thing they like to do I guess lol. But, instead of just making up lies just be like "hey let me call you back my friends are over and I don't want to get distracted and ignore you or something." Just say something like that. But, I mean don't just ignore her because your friends don't like her. She's new, so be her friend and introduce her to people. I hope this helps and if you still need help, just post a message in my inbox.
