i have this friend that i admire. she always makes me laugh and shes just amazing and shes always been there for me. ever since this school year started she made so many new friends, and i kinda got jealous so i didnt really pay attention to her because i wanted to see if she would do anything. she still acts really nice to me when the few times i actually do see her. im just kinda sad cause i dont see her as much as i used to and im afraid of being replaced by someone else. am i doing the right thing by not paying attention to her? if not what should i do?

Pinkymeowcat answered Thursday January 4 2007, 1:28 am: wow, its amazing at how similar your situation is to mine. like EXACTLY. ive been best friends with this girl since kindergarden and ever since starting high school shes made so many new friends and i totally got jealous. I guess I wasnt sure if she wanted to be friend still or not even though she still acted really nice to me. I did the same thing and didnt pay much attention to her, hoping that she would be the one to invite me over. She was so kind and i could tell her everything.lm not sure if we'll ever be best friends again, so talk to her about it before its too late. if you wanna talk or anything im here, just say so in the feedback =] [ Pinkymeowcat's advice column | Ask Pinkymeowcat A Question ]
sandi74 answered Wednesday December 27 2006, 3:59 pm: Very simple solution: Talk to her. If she's truly your friend, she'll understand where you're coming from. Just tell her you understand she has new friends, but you miss your relationship. If she's "amazing" she will certainly take your feelings into consideration. If not, then find other friends who care about you as much as you do them. You sound like a sweet girl, you deserve it. [ sandi74's advice column | Ask sandi74 A Question ]
xOViLLYxO answered Monday December 25 2006, 6:42 pm: No..your not doing the right thing. She seems like a fun person and I don't think you should just not may attention to her. Talk to her about it maybe she doesn't even realize it. Never let a good friendship like that just drop..you said she has always been there for you and that's something not all friends do. Talk to her and try and hang out. ♥ [ xOViLLYxO's advice column | Ask xOViLLYxO A Question ]
NikkiM answered Sunday December 24 2006, 6:58 pm: Hi.i dont think you should ignor her, i think you should tell her how you feel because she might not realise that she's making you jelous. If i were you, i would try and spend a lot of time with her if you enjoy her company, just because she has a lot of friends doesnt mean she doesnt want to be your friend aswell ;) [ NikkiM's advice column | Ask NikkiM A Question ]
kiran answered Sunday December 24 2006, 5:43 pm: Well not paying attention to her would solve everything. The best thing to do is to talk to her and tell her you got jealous because you feel like your losing her and she's a great friend. And don't try to take her away from her other friends because she might also really like them and you don't want to ruin a friendship. Everything should work out if you just sit and talk with her.

xlickablex answered Sunday December 24 2006, 4:58 pm: you should talk to her and tell her your a little jealous, but only because shes a great friend and you felt like you were losing her for the time. And maybe ask her if she wants to hang out and go to the movies or spend the night or something sometime and rekindle your friendship. [ xlickablex's advice column | Ask xlickablex A Question ]
BooYouWhore answered Sunday December 24 2006, 4:40 pm: i don't think ignoring her is the best way to go about it, especially if you want to be her friend. Try talking to her more. Try to plan things for the two of you to do together. YOu don't have to see her all the time to be friends with her. You can also try to make friends with her new friends and then join into their group. I'm sure that she still wants to be your friend, so make an effort to maintain your friendship and everything should go well.
Hope i helped!
