My Best Friend is a JERK!!! At least I think.
My best friend is a guy. We get teased a LOT about it, but whatever. He WAS dating this girl named Destiny. She's in 8th grade (we're in 7th.) She's a little bit of a slut, but I didn't say anything, even though I secretly have a crush on Koby, but whatever... The point is his OTHER best girl friend, Katie, and I saw Destiny dirty dancing and holding hands with a guy OTHER THAN KOBY!!! I was pissed, as you can imagine. Katie was too, so she texted Koby and was like,"Destiny's with another guy." And we took a pic of them holding hands. Koby texted her back,"How am I suppose to believe you? Are you tired of waiting for me to break up with her so you can have me?" Is he a jerk or should I forgive him?
It also sounds like he thinks that if he crooked his finger you and/or Katie would come running. Let me tell you now---NO BOY is worth that. If he didn't believe you that means he doesn't trust you as his friend and wouldn't trust you as his girlfriend.
I wouldn't let his response bother me but I also wouldn't forgive his attitude towards someone he supposedly considers a friend. Sounds as if you should move onto crushing on another boy. [ notyourmomsadvice's advice column | Ask notyourmomsadvice A Question ]

I might have some doubt about him with another girl. You did try telling him. If he doesn't listen you can say you tried. So thats all I can say. So I hope everything works out.

Friendship is based on trust, honesty, and most importantly common ground. if he was a true friend he would understand where your are coming from and he would totally understand that all u r trying to do is be honest and save him from heartbreak. simply tell him that if he doesnt want to listen then he can learn the hard way. And if heartbreak does happen to him, you can say i told you so. you can also say you tryied to warn him and all you are trying to do at this point is be a good friend. If he doesnt see that then he obviously isnt a friend. In all honesty, he is a jerk. [ gr8fruit's advice column | Ask gr8fruit A Question ]
