My Best Friend


Question Posted Saturday March 10 2007, 12:14 pm

I'm a boy, and I'm 15

I have a best friend whose really cool. Me and him met in marching band and eventually became really good friends.
But there's this girl who is obsessed with him and is always hanging on to him. She pretty much treats me like dirt and acts like I'm getting in the way.
One time I told my friend that if he liked her and she liked him they should just go out with each other, and they both acted like I was crazy. Maybe it was because my best friend had a girlfriend before and had bad experiences? idk.
Anyway, I usually don't care when they hang out, even if I am left behind, but the other day, my best friend decided to skip school to go snowtubing with this girl. It wouldn't usually make me mad, but that felt like kinda the last straw. I was so mad at that girl, because she sort of "took" my best friend. I don't have a lot of friends and I sorta felt like I was being left out.

You really need to talk to your friend. From the sounds of things, you and your friend get on really well so I'm sure he'll take the time to listen to you. Explain to him that you don't mind him spending time with her but that you feel like it's coming between you two. He possibly isn't even aware that he has been neglecting your friendship.

If the girl in question doesn't treat you well perhaps he could work out a way of making time for both you and her but at separate times. Don't worry friendships often go through weird phases but things have a way of working themselves out. Your friend will probably soon realise that friendships are alot more permanent than random girls. Best of luck with it.x

I am extremely familiar with this situation.

You have to talk to your so-called "best friend". He might not realize what he's doing. Tell him that it's starting to hurt you because you feel left out. If he's your friend, he'll understand & try to stop this. He might like this girl, but doesn't want to admit it, so he doesn't hurt you. What he doesn't realize is this is hurting you more.

And if things don't work out between you & him, you'll find someone else.--In marching band, around school, etc. :)

Best Wishes!<3

you should just talk to your best friend. sit him down and tell him whats on your mind. if he is really your best friend then he would listen. tell him how you feel about him and he hanging out and you being left behind.
hope this helped

Talk to your best friend- WITHOUT this girl around. He may not realize what he's doing. He may be overjoyed that someone likes him and completely oblivious to someone else. Just tell him how you feel- that lately, he's been hanging out with this girl a lot lately and you feel left out.


As for them looking at you like you were crazy, they could be embarrassed that someone pointed it out to them that they were all over each other. I've done the same thing.

hope I helped! :)
