Question Posted Wednesday April 4 2007, 1:05 am

one of my best friends, who also happens to be the guy i like is going out with another . Me and his friend don't really get along, and we don't really like each other. He decided to stay with her and he just stopped talking to me. we used to talk everyday, but now we don't talk at all. is he right to chose her over me?

Additional info, added Wednesday April 4 2007, 1:08 am:
i mean, i have been the one that's been there for him whenver they've had a fight, and i've known him for almost six years. Is it right that he just ignores me and forgets all about me for her?.

Yes you're right, it's not right that he's ignoring you for her. But the thing is, you have to understand that some people would sacrifice love/crush/whatever over friendship. I would do that. I know that's bad. Would you have done the same if you were in his position?

It's always very frustrating whenever such things happen. Guy ditches good friend; good fren gets upset; his gf sooner or later ditches him; he comes running back to his good friend; tells good fren that she's actually the one for him; It's just all so f-ing annoying.

If he chooses her over you, then it really tells a lot bout him. He's not being a very loyal friend isnt he? You've been with him thru ups and downs and he doesn't seem to see things the way you see it. I'm being brutally honest here but it goes to show that you aren't exactly on his priority list.

Learn to deal with it. Forget bout him. Let him come back to you whenever he wants to. I know some people would suggest talking to him. But sometimes, I feel that there's really nothing much to talk bout. His actions already tells me tt he doesn't appreciate me as a fren. I dunno maybe it's just pride on my part but I won't talk to him bcos his mindset is already set as such that it shows his ungratefulness towards you.

I'd go bout doing my work as per normal and I'll pray he ends up breaking up with that girl and come running back to me. In the meantime, I'll push him out of my mind totally bcos he's hurt me. Sorry if that sounded pretty bitchy but it's the truth and tt's wat we all want if we were in your shoes.

He's ignoring you because she's probably making him.

When they break up, I guarentee things will go back to norma.

No, thats not fair of him to do that. Tell him that you miss hanging out with him and want to do something soon (like if you guys used to go to the movies all of the time or whatever, ask him to do that) If he doesn't bother to care about how you feel, he isnt a true friend. Hope i helped...ask me if you need anything else.

No, it's not right of him to ignore you for someone else. You've been there, and probably always will be. Talk to him about it & tell him how you feel. If he's really your friend, he'll take what you have to say into consideration.

Umm.. It's not right that you didn't get along with his girlfriend out of respect for him. Just because you don't like her, doesn't mean you can't at least get along for his sake. If she doesn't want to get along with you, then that is her bad, but you should have gotten along with her, never the less, and that is your bad.

No, it's not right to choose a sweetheart over your best friend, but this situation is different than that.

Yah, you were there for him when they fought, but if you don't get along with his girl, then you aren't being there for him when they are happy with each other.

I know this isn't likely what you wanted to hear, but it is the truth and it is life.

omg no this is not right and hes a jerk for doing that. right now he is just into whats her face. if he has stopped talking to you in the sense of anything deep but still talks to you about nothing then you still might have a chance. what you need to do is wait it out. dont try to talk to him. he is probably not going to be with her forever and this is just one of the many issues of dealing with guys who are your best friends. um also, get out and do stuff with other people keep your mind busy and if hes a total jerk then move on true friends are there for you all the time fake ones are there for just the good times. hope this helps
