ok I am a 16/f and there is this kid that I am close to being able to say like I love him but not quite. And I introduced my cousin to him, which was a big mistake. Because shes now dating him or whatever, which is total bullshit. Because she knows what was going on between him and I and how I felt. I confronted her about some shit but she just doesn't understand and doesn't see what shes done she thinks shes miss innocent does no wrong. What do I do? The guy was one of my best friends on top of it and now doesn't even call me anymore, like its all screwed up. Can someone help me please I would really appreciate it. Thanks

If you have tried talking to her before and it didn't work, talk to her again but speak firmer and sound mean so she will actually listen to you. Tell her that by going out with this guy, she has ruined your friendship with him and she needs to stop going out with him. Your cousin is really mean and I would be hysterical if my cousin did this to me. You should try talking to this guy and explain that your cousin has ruined everything and that you liked him. Once your cousin realizes that she did something wrong, she will fix it but for now, you need to talk to her and explain how you feel about her actions and such. If talking to her in person doesn't work, then write her a long letter, explaining how you feel and telling her that she shouldn't be going out with this guy and now she has ruined everything.

Getting through to her sounds as if it isn't working so I think you have to talk to him and explain that ever since he's started going out with your cousin, you feel as if he's left you behind. Point out that you understand that he has a girlfriend, but that's no excuse to dump his mates. Once he's gotten used to the idea, arrange to go out with him, just the two of you as 'mates'. You have to be supportive of him and stay really good friends with him if you hope t have a chance with him once he dumps your cousin.
You could always try speaking to your cousin again and don't be nice about it, speak firmly and don't stop talking until you have said everything you need to say. You need to show this bitch whos boss!
If that doesn't work, well I know it's crap but your just going to have to be mates and simply flirt for a little while longer until they split up. Good luck. Really hope you two get together
