How to get my guy friends to stop trying to make me jealous?
Im the kind of girl that has more guy friends then girl friends because i feel that make less drama and overall are more fun to hang out with. You dont get judged and you rarely have to worry about them talking crap behind your back. The downside is that out of all the guy friends i have they try there very hardest to make me jealous. Its not in my nature to be jealous hearted. Whenever someone (whether its my friends or anyone) has accomplished something or is doing great in life i will be the first one to be happy for them. But i have noticed that some of them of them try to change that. I overheard that they "swap ideas" like dating other girls just so i can be jealous and eventually be with them or begin to like them. It hurts. It Really it does. The worst part is that i cant do anything about it. They make sly remarks like for instance that i didnt seem thrilled when they told me that one of them were dating my best friend. Not to mentioned i was over joyed and hugged them both and glad because my friend had just gotten over a terrible heartbreak. One that i was helping her through. One even asked me if they want them to break up with there girlfriend and im just taken aback by it. Im just wondering if this some kind of sick joke. It seems like i have to constantly prove that i dont want more than a friendship with some of them. Im worried about acting in a certain way just so they wont take it as if im not happy for them. Im just frustrated and dont know what to do :(

Hey, I know how you feel. I grew up with two brothers so I used to get along with more of my guy friends than girls. The fact of the matter is--boys will be boys. Nothing can change that. What you need to do is keep a strong heart and mind around them. Show them that you're not an easy pushover and that you're a tough chick. Most importantly, always portray self respect. As long as you respect yourself, everyone around you will eventually do the same. Jealousy is a natural human feeling... But we don't like to show a single trace of that because we feel like it's a sign of weakness; therefore, we conceal it. All you've gotta do is build a solid mind with clarity and strength. It's mind over matter. Always be loyal and understanding to your friends--because a lot of them will learn to do the same with you. Also, they'll think highly of you and they won't be able to spot a single trace of weakness within you. Be happy and think positive!
