Need ways to cheer up a friend
Im going to the movies with a bunch of my friends, and my boyfriend's friends. Everyone has a date they're going with and my friend Ali is totally flipping out because I told her I can't sit by her at the movies. I promised my other friend, Beth, that I would sit by her. My boyfriend Dane is sitting on the other side of me so I can't sit by both Ali and Beth.
I really think it's totally stupid that Ali is making a big deal over who I sit by, but she's one of my best friends and she feels like I like Beth more than her and she thinks she'll be so left out at the movies.
I need some way to make Ali happy, because I don't want everything at the movies ruined.

just tell her that you'll sit by her next time, and that you can't back out on your promise to Beth b/c you made that first

It sounds like Ali is feeling a bit left out. You shouldn't decide before hand who sits where. Maybe get Ali to sit next to beth that way you're in close range.
Since this is a date thing and Ali should have a date then who sits where shouldn't be a big issue. Just don't stress about it, don't bring it up and just see what happens. If Ali is still being funny when you go out then talk to her about it telling her what you feel.

The reason she's mad is because you guys are making a deal of it. I mean, do you need a seating chart? When you get there, sit down, and thats that. That way no one will feel screwed over.

hey, well maybe ali is more insecure than beth is. i know that you promised beth that you would sit by her, but maybe you should ask beth if it would be okay if you sat by ali instead because she is totally freaking out. tell her that your not forcing her to say yes, but since shes stronger than ali, you figured that you would just ask her if she would mind.
