she likes this one guy who is 16 and
shes 14 and she wants to ask him out.
but i happen to know for sure
that he likes someone else.

If i were you i would tell her but say it in a certain way she trusts you and knows your not jelous or you aren't "stealing" him or anything. don't be afraid to tell her, shes your friend she should understand. hope that worked because im not the best at this haha. :] [ volleyballgamer's advice column | Ask volleyballgamer A Question ]

if you arent sure, then maybe ask him yourself if he likes someone or not. if he does, tell her, if he doesnt, help her through it.
summerluvin09 answered Monday July 16 2007, 10:52 pm: if youre positive (i mean ABSOLUTLEY positive), then you probably should tell her. if she asked him and he said no, she'd be hurt (and maybe upset that you didn't tell her about his crush). only if she mentions it though... if you randomly tell her that, then she might think you like him or something.

LM answered Monday July 16 2007, 10:12 pm: You could try telling her, sure. But she may think you're telling her to make her jealous, or think that YOU like him. How sure are you that he likes someone else? You culd be wrong. I'd let her ask him out anyways. She'll regret not saying anything if she doesn't, and you'll have to hear about it regardless of what happens [he says yes, he says no, she never asks and wonders what could have been]
So prepare yourself for the worst. A pint of her favorite icecream next time she comes over is sufficent :) [ LM's advice column | Ask LM A Question ]
