Third wheel...:[
Ok, to make this really short, I'm becoming the third wheel in my frienship. My best friend recently started dating one of our other guy friends. We used to all hang out, us a other people too, but now its just me, her and her boyfriend and I feel as though I'm becoming the third wheel. What can I do about this?

Oh my goodness I know exactly how you feel...everytime I hang out with my best friend and her boyfriend I feel so awkward and third-wheelish just sitting there when both of them say to each other "No, I love YOU more." Lol. Anyways, if you prefer hanging out with your best friend when it's not the three of you, just invite her to do stuff, just the two of you. Of course, it's best to actually tell her how you feel, but I know that's not the greatest advice because I'm in the exact same predicament as you and I don't want to talk to my best friend about it because I'm kind of afraid to hurt her feelings. =( But, I suggest you talk to her about it. Say something like "I miss us hanging out like we used to, we should definetly start hanging out like old times again." Just don't sound accusing or blame her boyfriend or whatever because I'm sure she's very happy with her boyfriend, like my friend is. =) I'm sure she'll understand; true best friends always want what's best for each other. Also, when the three of you hang out, you could ask your best friend/her boyfriend if you could invite a bunch of other people along as a big group, or maybe her boyfriend could invite one of his guy friends. Who knows; maybe you and his friends will end up going out and it would be like 2 best friend couples going out (awww, lol.) Hope I helpeddd. =)

-Take another person with you.
-Talk to your friend.
-Don't hang with them when they're together because they may need some alone time.
**REMEMBER: HOS BEFORE BROS, ALWAYS!**
& Don't worry..nothing lasts forever! One day, [hopefully soon], it'll be you and her again.
HOPE I HELPED!
GOOD LUCK!

Try asking her if you guys can hang out in
a bigger group sometime. Maybe bring along
another friend for you, I know where you're coming from and being a third wheel is deffinitley no fun.
I'm sure your friend will understand
if you tell her that you're kind of uncomfortable around just the two of them, or if you feel left out. If you don't want to be around them when they kiss or something, ask her to keep the pda at a minimum.
Communication is key, words to live by.
Good Luck <3

You said she've become a girlfriends of ONE of your guy friends, right? Why not hang out with your guy friends?
If you really want to hang out with your female best friend, then tell her about this. Tell her you're really happy about the relationship she has with whoever, but tell her you're paying too much attention to him than you. You feel left out, so tell her. Remind your friend that you don't want to get in between her and _____, but you feel like you've been pushed out of her life.
Arrange 'girl-time' for you two. Discover new hair styles and have a sleepover or something!
Hope I've helped
