my best friend and i have been together almost everyday for the past year. he is my everything. i tell him all my problems, he tells me all his. i do everything for the kid. i went through his phone the other night.. and im not the type of person to do this but i felt that he was lying to about some girl. i found out they kissed and everything and he told me he doesnt like her and im besides myself. I'm so afraid to lose him to her because i cant be second best.. not when i placed him first. i dont know what to do, im sick about it, i dont wanna talk to anyone, i always cry and i tryed to tell him how i feel but he is still always with her and pushing me away. i want to scream and cry all at the same time. im completely hopeless and i need help.

If he gets a girlfriend you wouldn't be second best. Friendships are different to relationships.
Even if she just turned out to be another of his good friends, you need to learn to accept the fact there are other people besides you and people need to share out their time equally with one another.
There's no need for you to get this upset about it. Explain to him again you fear you may lose him. You need reassuring by HIM that everything is okay.
Don't always go on at him about it though, because in the end, you may be the one pushing him away - not the other way around.
Talk to him.
Everything will be okay. [ thelaura's advice column | Ask thelaura A Question ]
