Question Posted Thursday October 13 2005, 1:01 pm

my best friend is a guy. he has been going out with a girl in our group of friends (who i can't stand) for about a month. whenever she isn't around, he is goofy and talkative and fun. but when she is there..it's like i'm invisible. he'll answer whatever i say to him with a short answer..but he'll never say anything to me besides that. after a meeting for our dance (we are both on the committee..along with his gf) i tripped him as he was going out the door. usually he would grin and say something clever..but he just kept walking and didn't say a word. i was talking to my friend about it and i decided i would just go along with it while we were waiting for our rides and see what he does. so we just stood there and talked..like right next to him. i didn't say a word to him. once she left, he came over to talk to me. i didn't want to be mean, so i would answer him..and eventually i was talking. i want to talk to him about it..but i don't want to make it seem like i'm jealous..even though i pretty much am. i just don't see why i have to be completely invisible. what should i do?

Additional info, added Thursday October 13 2005, 1:04 pm:
we tell each other all our problems..and i've given him good advice about her. now he's been telling me that around her his mind goes blank and he doesn't know what to say and he can't be himself around her. this is actually pretty funny because one of my friends told her that he acts differently when she's around and she said that she is the only one who knows the true him and he acts different around us. gosh, i can't stand her..

The reason the guy is acting like that is because he doesn't want to play arpund with you alot and have his girlfriend think she's cheating on him. If he does they the things you want him to do then he's afraid his girl would be like i can't believe you so he thinks maybe when sh'es around i wont talk to you that much until she leaves. Also, the way he acts around yall, he might think thats not the way he should acts around his gurl. Its all about showing the true you something he shouldn't be scared to show.

Well i have a friend just like that!! except he dosnt go out with the girl.. well you should try to not get mad.. even though its very hard ( i know from experience) and if the only reason you dont like her is because of this thing (not saying it is) but you should maybe try to become more friendly around her and know that its not her fault that he acts like your invisible.. (im talking from experince so im not saying this applies to you but if it does ya..) You should maybe try talking to him about it and tell him how you feel and try to talk things out with him... hope i helped..

P.S. hope it all works out!! email me if you need better advice

Well, its obvious he really likes his gf, and he probably feels that if he talks to other girls while shes around, she might get mad. Alot of guys are like that. Shes proud that hes giving all his attention to her. If i were you, when ever theres a time shes not around him, and he starts talking to you, i would simply say, "hey, if im not good enough to talk to while youre gf is around, then you shouldnt be talking to me when shes not"!! He has to realize that it is ok to talk to other girls in front of his gf, and if its not, then his friendship isnt worth your time!! Basically its his loss!
