Help! I feel completely torn between my best friend and my girlfriend.
Okay, this is really gonna sound confusing, I think... Well, they basically hate each other. My girlfriend hates my best friend because my best friend likes me, I think... Because she even told me recently that she liked me.
Anyway, my girlfriend hates her because she flirts with me a lot and stuff right in front of her... and my best friend hates my girlfriend because she doesn't think she's right for me.
I thought I could have both my girlfriend and my best friend, but everytime I am even nice to my friend, my girlfriend ends up thinking something completely different.
Well my girlfriend was all quiet one day and when I asked her what was wrong she told me that she thought I was gonna break up with her because of my best friend, which I would never do.
Everything's okay between us now, but now my best friend thinks we aren't that good of friends anymore...
I really want both of them... I want my girlfriend and my best friend. PLEASE help. Any advice is appreciated. Thanks in advance.
Tell your best friend that you don't like her in that way, but you would still like to be best friends with her.
As for your girlfriend, tell her you love her and that you will not break up with her (if thats true...) and tell her that you don't have strong feelings for your best friend... but she does for you. Just tell your gf that your bf is only friends and you will not break up with her.

Your girlfriend has a good reason for hating her, she probably thinks your friend is a threat to your relationship. You should tell your bestfriend that you don't like her in that way and that you would appreciate it if she stopped flirting with you around your girlfriend.
Explain to your girlfriend that even though you're nice to her that doesn't mean anything. Tell her that you guys are just friends and that you want to be with her. You shouldn't have to pick one of them, but if your best friend doesn't back down a little you might have to.
