Hey advice-giving people! I have this friend who acts like I should be devoted to him and I should have no other friends beside him since I've known him since pre-k. Ok, well, one of my other friends, Jessica, asked me to go to the beach with her and I said sure because well.. the beach ROCKS! But anyways.. We told John Ross (the obsessive friend) not to tell Brittany (our other friend) because we knew it would make her mad at us. Ok, well he went & told her & it made her mad. He's ALWAYS doing stuff like that. How do I tell him to shut the freak up without losing him as a friend?

He probably told that girl Brittany about going to the beach because he knew she was going to get upset, and he may have thought that you wouldn't have gone because she was so mad...that way, you can't interact with other people. I think you should talk to John, and tell him that you are his friend, but you have to have other friends too. Also, let him know that you guys have a friendship so strong that it is unbreakable. Talk to him, and maybe he'll finally let go. I hope I helped! [ partygurl24's advice column | Ask partygurl24 A Question ]
