me and my best friend went ice skating together n there was this guy there that she has been talkn to online for a while but i just met him n i kind of like him. evidently so does my best friend. im really shy and shes just not at all so i dont have much of a chance n she can pretty much get any guy she wants but i like him too. when we were in the car goin home from it she told me that he was hers n that i cant have him n i just kept sayin why n then i told her that he said she was desperate (and he really did say that) because i was getting pissed off. after i told her that she didnt say anything to me for the rest of the car ride n when i walked out of the car i thawt(i wasnt sure) that i saw tears in her eyes. what should i do about all this? i rate 5s to answers that dont piss me off!

You said "I kind of like him". If you liked him a lot, you would have said "I really like him".
You just met the guy,
Your friend knew him before you met him, so she obviously likes him more than you do. In order to keep this friendship and not to hurt your friend's feelings, I think you should back off, even if the guy isnt interested in her. Guys come and go, but friends go and never come back, theyre like balloons, if you let go, they'll never come back.

Yes, I understand he really said it, but you didn't say it because you wanted to protect her from dating a guy she likes, you told her because you were getting mad. You need to go talk to her, you can say these words to her, "Ok, I think that I owe you an apology for screwing up with my words. The truth is, I told you he said that, because I was upset. I felt upset when you were saying he was yours, not mine, because I really like him too, and it felt like you weren't respecting me by saying that. I felt sad because, it sounded like you were going to go after him anyways. And, it basically means our friendship if you do that to me." Now, this sounds crazy, but its not, if your best friend was even a friend, she would never go after a guy you both were into. Do not let her get that guy and keep her as your friend, don't let yourself turn into a doormat. You have to put your foot in at times, letting her know that you're serious. But, thats all I can tell you.
