ok so theres this one guy at school and my best friend likes him but i like him to and he knows that she likes him but he donn't know that i like him and he flirts with me and my friend told me that if he starts going out with someone else she would get really pissed and if he goes out with me she is going to be pissed at me and she is my best friend... What should i do...
There's a line that friends don't cross with each other when it comes to dating someone they have either been with or want to be with. You have to ask yourself if your friend is someone you want to keep or if you would ditch the friend to go out with the guy.
Her saying that she would be pissed at you sounds more like her trying to control a situation that she already knows she can't control. A true friend would want you to be happy even if she were miserable because that's what friends do--they support one another no matter what.

Anyway, you and your friend and this jackass are all acting like moronic nine year olds. And you should all get back to playing Yu Gi Oh or whatever you guys play when you come home from 4th grade.

But If you really like this guy you need to tell your friend to take a hike and get over it. that you still wanna be her friend, but you like this guy too. Then you need to tell this guy that u like him and if your confrtable ask him out or even see how he reacts and then maybey he'll ask you out.
But if you friend is a TRUE friend she may be "pissed" but she'll get over it sooner or later! [ anniemaylane's advice column | Ask anniemaylane A Question ]

It may turn out well or not. You need to know about how he feels about you otherwise so you can decide about what to do.
It seems to me that he likes you but as you didn't put in your letter as to what else he does apart from flirting with you, it's difficult to tell if he really is interested in you. But from what I've read, he may like you.
Your friend seems to be very possesive of what she wants. She'll get angry if this guy goes out with somebody else apart from her and she will get angry if you go out with him. To me, she sounds like somebody whom thinks of themselves very highly and only what one person for themselves and don't want anybody getting in the way of that. Do tell me if I'm wrong but that's the general impression I get of her from what you've written.
If you like him, then ask him as to how he feels about you. To me, a love realtionship comes above a normal friendship. She may be pissed at you like you said, but if the realtionship is what you want, then nothing should stop that BUT remember that it all depends upon the fact as to whether he likes you or not.
Cliff notes version: go and ask him to see how he feels about you and then go from there.
