Should I just keep my mouth shut?
My best friend, Katie, has liked a guy named Michael for about three or two months. Finally, he asked her out last Saturday. Before that happened, he was flirting with our other friend, Julie. Everyone including me saw that he was flirting with Julie and we all thought we liked her. When I'm with Julie and Katie isn't there, we sometimes see Michael. He flirts with her quite often and it really seems like he likes her. Julie already has a boyfriend and Katie's going out with Michael. Should I wait until it happens again and then talk to Katie about it or do I just try and ignore it?

Hi!!
Well it kinda depends if her flirts with her on the regular or not. If so tell Katie now. If she really likes him then she needs to know whats been up. If its not really lately then wait till it happens again.
Hope i helped!

I say that you wait 'til it happens again,
THEN tell Michael about it, to make sure he knows that he's flirting.

I wouldn't ignore it. Think if you were to be dating this guy and he was flirting with your other friends - wouldn't you want to know about it? I'm sure you would.
Plus, keeping it to yourself isn't going to help her any. If she ever does find out that he's doing this, she's going to feel way more hurt than she would now, because the longer they're dating, the more emotionally involved she's going to become, and the more it's going to hurt her in the end. Plus, it's going to hurt her even MORE if she ever found out that you've seen this happen, knew about it, and just let it all happen.
I would just sit down with her and be like,"Katie, I don't know how to tell you this, and I wish I didn't have to, but, the other day whenever you weren't there and me and (so-and-so) and Michael and Julie were all hanging out together, Michael was sort of flirting with Julie alot. I don't know why Michael's doing that, even if he KNOWS that he's flirting with her ( because sometimes guys tend to just think they're being friendly, whereas others take it as flirtng ), but I think you should just talk to him about it and figure out what's going on."
And then be there for her whenever she calls him or talks to him about it, because she is probably going to need a friend to be there for her and support her, cause I'm sure she's going to feel pretty bad.
I hope I helped.
