How to overcome friends dating...being a third wheel?


Question Posted Saturday June 2 2007, 9:06 pm

15/f Okay. So, I have this guy friend and he's 18. And I have a friend who is a girl who is 18. And well, I used to have a crush on the guy, but he turned me down, and I got heartbroken. So then he started going out with the girl. I was SOOO wicked jealous...OMG. I hate(d) that girl's guts. Even though she's my friend. I like used to block her on MSN and he would get upset at me. So now...I made friends with her again. Like I unblocked her. And now, the guy friend thinks very highly of me for doing that. But he still doesn't like me in that way. And now I feel as they start going out more, I'm going to be left out and they're not going to be my friends anymore :( (I'm more worried about the guy being my friend than the girl). I am truly happy for them, with just a hint of jealousy (there always is) and I even tried to wreck their relationship once. But it upsets me that they will start paying less attention to me. Is there any way to overcome this icky lonely/jealous feeling? Should I just be supportive and very happy for them? And, if I may ask, is it normal in this type of situation to sometimes wish them the worst? (like in my mind) I mean..I don't mean it. But I don't want to lose him (yep, I don't care much about her).

Thanks so much in advance. :)

get active. do something and hang with your friends. dont get bored or you'll start to think of your situation. be supportive because they still are your friends. you dont have to be like ecstatic about them though. yeah its very normal. its just your jealousy acting up. jealousy is very normal but you need to focus your attention elsewhere.
