ok well, there's this girl; Paige i'll use names because it's eaiser. Well we were best friends since like 6th grade and we got in a fight about a month ago and we're good now. BUT, while we weren't friends she became really good friends with this girl who i hate, Lauren. I just don't like her. I could go on it's just too long. Anyway, i really didn't care because i had other friends too but they started doing EVERYTHING and then they both are going to the same high school- i'm not. They both made a sports team lauren's getting a big head- Paige isn't. Well recently my friend Nick and Clayton ran into lauren and she threatened nick to talk to paige and maybe ask her out. and pretty much grabbed him by the shirt and said ask her out soon or you'll die. Clayton and Nick told me and i really believe them. Nick's scared to death because he doesn't really like Paige. Paige, doesn't know what her new BFF - Lauren did. Should i tell her or just keep my mouth shut? I'm just afraid Paige is going to get hurt...again. and i hate it because somehow it'll come back on me. Please, help!
sorry it's long

A. you can tell your friend about what nick and clayton told you and hope that she believes you over lauren... which no affense i dont think is very likely since you said that lauren and paige have become really close.you could also risk your friendship with paige if you tell her what nick and clayton told you
B. you could just stay out of this situation all together.. the only down side is that what if paige finds out that you knew about what lauren was doing and you didnt tell her... she might feel like betrayed by you which is never good
C. you could maybe have clayton and nick tell paige what lauren has been doing to them and how shes been threatening them.
if i were you i would go with choice c if nick and clayton are willing to do it if not stick with b and just stay out of this whole mess its sometimes easier that way [ happybabe2's advice column | Ask happybabe2 A Question ]
christina answered Monday May 14 2007, 10:18 pm: Well, she should be hearing this from Nick. Since you weren't there, it could be hard to believe. I mean, if I told you hit my friend or whatever, would you believe me if I wasn't there? Probably not. I mean, you could say you weren't there but then they'd ask "Well how do you know?" All I know is that "Someone told me.." doesn't sound very convincing.

Get Nick to tell her. It happened to him so that's who she should hear it from. If she doesn't believe him, then Clayton could jump to the spot as a witness because he was also there. Yes, she might confront her "friend" about it, but Lauren sounds like the type of girl to deny things like that, so you guys could look like liars. Potentionally though, if she doesn't believe you, don't worry. She'll come to her senses. Besides, she's known you longer & if she takes Lauren's lies over your truth, then she's pathetic.

xoxwannabemexox answered Monday May 14 2007, 8:54 pm: Hey!
1. I sympathize with you about this it happened to me
2. Tell her gently-if you're still friends she'll let you talk to her just ask her how her and lauren and are and then get into telling her about what you heard, but make it sound as if you're just concerned for her(which you are) then finish it nicely by saying maybe you sould ask her because i don't know everything that is just what i saw.
