My best friend is really sweet, but isn't so popular with the boys. I happen to be (not to me boastful) Anyway, when ever I tell her about my boyfriend or that a boy told me he likes me, she says "at least that guy likes you" SO I can't talk to her about guys. I don't know what to do

Sophie_xxx answered Tuesday March 1 2005, 3:38 pm: Argh I actually have exactly the same problem.
The best thing to do is try a) not to flirt too much when boys are around and b) involve her in your conversations with them.
I know it's stupid, but it's probably best not to talk to her about guys to much-talk about her favourite things instead and things that you have in common together.
Good luck!

Maybe dont go into detail about how your boy friend was soooo sweet and everything you guys did last night. Just tell her he took you somewhere and you had fun. You can always talk to your best friend about guys. You just have to be careful not to make her feel like shes missing out too much. hope i helped at least a little...

XxJeSSeGeRbiLxX answered Tuesday March 1 2005, 1:01 pm: i think you should just tell her to stop. i have a friend that says that kind of stuff all the time, and its gets me pretty mad. its like she's using that against you, and best friends should be able to talk about anything. tell her that you feel uncomfortable when she does this, and you would like to help her find a boyfriend. give her a makeover, whatever, anything to make her feel better, but dont totally stop talkin about it. if all else fails, tell a friend of yours to pretend he likes her or something, i know its not honest, but i did it once and it worked, it'll stop her complaining, and she'll feel good about herself. not all guys look at what's outside, actually most look at whats inside. maybe she has to change her attitude...
~hope i helped

icey0990 answered Tuesday March 1 2005, 12:54 pm: I feel your friends pain because i cant get guys either..but you just gota wait for the guy who likes her to come along. try explaining that a guy will come along and sweep her off her feet too...she just has to be patient. Try hooking her up..maybee have a girls night out..have a sleepover..get her happy aagain..and maybe after she realizes her time will come..then you could talk about guys with her hopefully [ icey0990's advice column | Ask icey0990 A Question ]
Karen answered Tuesday March 1 2005, 12:51 pm: Your friend may be jealous that you can get a boyfriend or a guy to like you when she can't. It sounds like her self-esteem is low. Try hooking her up with someone or have guys talk to her. If she feels self-conscience about the way she looks, give her a make over and this will help her get noticed by guys. Just talk to her and ask her why she says that you can get guys.
