can't stand to be around them when they're together


Question Posted Sunday February 5 2006, 8:26 pm

One of my best friends is dating the guy that I like. And this is the 2nd time they're going out. The thing is I still like him and I can't stand being around them when they're together. And I'm good friends with both. One other thing is she tells me almost everything and she doesn't really like him that much. Is there anything I can do about this?

Talk to her about what you're feeling. If she doesn't know, how will she realize it's hurting you? Maybe if she knows that you have feelings for him, while she doesn't, she'll back off... or if she still likes him, maybe you'll both be able to find a way to make the situation less uncomfortable for you.

Hope it works out!

try talking to your friend about still having feelings for the guy she's dating. Letting her know may be the solution to not having to hear about everything they do together. just a suggestion! good luck.

You should tell her how you feel if it's hurting you or making you feel uncomfortable to be around them. If she's your best friend she will understand and do what is necessary. When they hang out, you don't have to be there, and she would understand why you couldnt be there. Maybe try hanging out with them in separate groups.

omg deja vou(if i knew exactly what that meant) lol ok first does your friend know you like him cuz if she does that is horrible! but if she doesnt then your situation is like mine...this guyfriend i liked asked out one of my best freinds like 3 times...but she never liked him although i guess she kinda led him on. for months i watched him like her...but good news i kinda encouraged her questioning how much she liked him and then she finally told him she really was not into him but someone else(true not trickory). Although i never ended up dating this boy(both too shy :( ....he did end up liking me according to everyone of our friends for a lonng time) so try to telll your friend you like him, while still keeping your friendship in mind and if shes really a true friend she'll understand that your definite feelings are more important than her "kinda" feelings. good luck and tell me how it goes i like a happy ending!
hearts always,
kimberly

Communication is the key element to the solution. Communicate with your friend how you feel and be open. If she doesn't really like him maybe she'll stop going out with him once you've shared your concerns. :) good luck

Talk to your girlfriend and ask her why she's going out with him if she doesn't really like him. Tell her that you like him and that you would appreciate it if she could back off since she doesn't like him that much. If she still decides to blow you off then go up and talk to your guy friend. Tell him that she is telling you that shes not really into him. Make sure you don't let him know you like him (its not the time and it would also look REALLY suspicious) also, make sure you're really nice about it because chances are is he's going to be hurt.
