19/female.
So i'm not going to lie, i always get attention around guys, i'm use to it and love it. I'm an outgoing girl, i just love to have fun and don't care what people think about me. My best friend, she is okay looking, but every guy always tells me how i'm hotter than her and nobody really thinks she is pretty. I do feel bad for her, but obviously i don't tell her they say that. Well anyways, there was this cute guy that she was interested in and i didn't think anything was going to happen with it because she is a really shy girl, she's never kissed a guy before or anything and never had a boyfriend and this guy is the exact opposite. Well we ended up hanging out with him last night and he was giving her all the attention and texting her all night. I get it, me and my cousin were trying to hook them up. I was jealous though, that was the FIRST time ever that i wasn't getting the attention and i hated it. I was soooo bored. And when my friend texts him, she always asks me what to say so its basically like me talking to him? DUMB. But it's like my friend is rubbing it in my face that he thinks she is cute because she is always like "OMG he said this, he said i was cute .. blaaa." Now i'm not trying to sound selfish, like a bad friend or anything but i'm not use to this. And i don't do that to her at all, i don't say "haha yeah all guys think i'm hot" obviously i'm not like that to her that would be just annoying. But what am i suppose to do? I'm getting pretty annoyed of this situation, she is always talking about him and now we're all hanging out again tonight .. great. I know i sound like a self centered person but i'm just use to getting so much attention because i'm an outgoing girl and i guess guys think i'm hot, that when a guy doesn't pay attention to me and pays attention to my friend .. i get jealous. I really do want to be happy for her, but i don't know how without being annoyed.
just try to be happy for her, or at least act like you are. if you start to get annoyed, remind yourself of all the guys that have and still do like you. maybe even text some of them whenever she is talking to her guy. [ ConfusedX2's advice column | Ask ConfusedX2 A Question ]

Suck it up and congratulate the poor girl, she's enjoying the male attention you're used to for the first time. [ WittyUsernameHere's advice column | Ask WittyUsernameHere A Question ]

Sami143 answered Saturday November 28 2009, 9:35 pm: I completely understand this situation... but the reason she is telling you all this is because she is usually feeling how you are right now... Im sure she knows that guys give you attention and not her. So now that one cute guy is finally paying attention to her and not you she is excited. She honestly isnt trying to rub it in your face she probaly has no idea she is even doing it. She is just happy that it is her getting the attention for once.
Just let her enjoy this moment. Even though your jealous be happy for her and help her out.

You need to learn that just because you think your pretty and are so into attention doesnt mean your all that. Im sure your friend is jealous when you get all the attention and now your upset that you feel that way. Dont do anything drastic like break them up because of your self-centered mind cant deal with a guy not liking you. I cant wait till you get out into the real world where you wont get whatever you want and you sure as heck wont get smothered in attention. Get a life and feel happy for your friend.
