I need help with some social problems I've been having.


Question Posted Saturday July 29 2006, 11:04 pm

Hi. This is someone you know but I'm still going to keep my identity a secret, although you may figure out who I am.
There is this guy i like, but my best friend likes him too. She also hangs around him more. I may sound like a snob but she is the kind of girl who always gets the guy, and I always end up alone. I'm tired of having that happen because she always ends up being mean to them in someway or tells me she doesnt like them anymore, after they start liking her.
Should I stop liking this guy or should I ask her to back off(in a nice way)?

Does your friend know about your feelings for him? If she doesn't, then you need to let her know so you can work things out.

If you just went for the guy, without working things out with your friend, it could really ruin your friendship. Even if she does know how you feel about this guy, you need to talk to her. It wouldn't be fair to her if you just told her to back off.

You could say, "____ (your friend's name), I really like this guy, and I know you like him, too. I don't want us to get in a fight over this, and I don't want us to lose our friendship over a guy. We need to work something out." Don't yell, no matter what you do; People tend to get defensive when people yell at them and are less likely to listen to what you're saying.

But remember: Friends before boys. Always.

I hope I helped, and if you have any more questions, feel free to leave another one in my inbox!
