Hi, my name is Emily, I'm from England. Ok, so I fancied this one boy at my school. He seems so sweet and just really nice. I have liked him for about a year (we speak to eachother and are friends)! I know a girl who is friends with my friends, and we are friendly to eachother but we're more acquaintances. She began to fancy him, told her friend who told him. She just had maybe 1 conversation with him and then started to fancy him about a week before he found out and asked her out. I'm not really jealous to be honest, I am over him pretty much, but now we don't really talk and when we walk past each other and make eye contact we quickly look away. We act like we don't know eachother. What should I do?
So the best place to start is being friends with a guy. Only problem to that is when a guy you are only best friends with starts dating another girl and is serious about her. She will not tolerate him still being chummy with other girls. You probably would feel a little unsettled at the least too is your boyfriend hung out privately with girls who were supposedly only friends, and not having enough time to spend with u.
It might be that it feels awkward to him to not be talking to you another, thus all the staring and looking away quickly. What you might do is approach him and let him know you have no hard feelings, are not jealous but miss talking to him as a friend. YOu want him to know this in case his girlfriend doesnt mind him chatting with you in passing at school. That way you don;t have to act as strangers. If she does have a problem with that, all he needs is to say, he wont be talking to keep her happy. Although, when a person has a bf/gf who is so easily threatened by others of their sex, and jealous alot, its wears thin pretty quickly and their partner may tire of them and break up. If you have that chat now and he does break up eventually with her, then there wont be a long period of awkward -no contact with you afterward if you've both agreed to remain friends.
