Backstab-O-Meter

Three's a Crowd

 

You and your bestie have been friends forever but her other BFF doesn’t allow you to have any alone time with her. She is always butting into conversations, and taking you away from your BFF.  You’re totally cool with her having other friends, but you just need some alone time together.


My BFF and I have always been two peas in a pod. In school, we always sat together and were partners on trips and on projects. Now, she has another best friend. These days she doesn't really talk to me much because of her other BFF.


Every time I try to talk to her, her other friend keeps interrupting us and I don't have any time to talk to her.  She listens to my private conversations with her and wants everything I have and more. She wants my BFF all to herself.  Every time I try to talk to her about the problem she of course comes in and ruins it.  I have no issue of my best friend having other friends, but it'll be cool if once in a while I get to talk to her alone!


BFF Fix-it: Sounds like your BFF needs to set her schedule straight. Seems like her bestie is jealous of you and wants to have same bond you and your BFF have.  Your friend should realize that she needs to be able to hang out with both of you equally. If she still wants to be your BFF, she will want to make time to talk to you and hang out with you. Try asking her to come over for a sleepover, or go to the mall, without her other BFF.  Tell her you need some alone time together to catch up.

ME and my friend's group of three works pretty well! We all link together our outfits, take turns sitting in the special spot, and divide everything evenly! Me and my first bestie might be closer, (just a little), but it's easy for us. Sorry urs didn't work out.

MMMMMMMMOOOOOOOOOOOODDDDDDDDDDDDSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!
Jobs for a 13 year old girl...???!!?
My family is MUCHO tight on money right now (my parents are both teachers) and I wanna get some sort of an income/job sorta thing. And NO ONE (NO ONE!!!) say baby-sitting PLEASE!!! The only baby-sitting gigs I get are from my parents.
-Kat

Please help! Any ideas?




Hey girl,

Check some local stores. Some places will hire thirteen year olds for part time work. And I know you told me not to say it, but putting up babysitting or pet-sitting flyers around your neighborhood or community library is a great way to snag clients. Still looking for ideas? Get creative. Whether it's selling lemonade or friendship bracelets, there's tons of ways to make money off your hobbies. Good luck!

Tnx jeannie!!
My bff suddenly liked a guy that ive liked for months. (she even did that to the last guy i kinda liked!!) I still wanted to go out with him, but i didnt wanna b a bad friend. Ive tried to get him out of my head,but i cant. hes the longest crush ive had. plz help me, i want to ask him out but i want to get him out of my head.

 

Hey girl, if this is the case, it's time to have a talk with your BFF to see if you guys can figure this out. Tell her honestly how you're feeling and listen to what she has to say. Depending on what she says you'll know what to do even if you don't think it's what you really want. And trust me, between friends, anything can be solved. <3 Jeannie

K so my friend can be kinda boy crazy, like she looks at the guy and she loves him. Last week she told me that she had seen the guy i have liked for the past 8 months and she liked him!!!!! That had already happened once, and i let her have him. I reallly like him, and i wanted to ask him out once school started, but i dont wanna be a bad friend!!! HELP.......... o and any tips for asking him out??????




Hey babe,

If you and your friend like the same guy it can lead to major problems. You should work it out between the two of you. Either decide neither of you will go after him or else decide that you get this one, since she got the last one, but even that is risky. I would say both of you should stay away from this guy for the good of your friendship.

OMG SOOOO ANNOYING

chocolatelover13 on 7/22/2009 2:32:05 PM

One of my friends used to be like that. It got really annoying, but I think she grew out of it.

ash_bash08 on 7/21/2009 2:52:07 PM

that happened to me and my BFF and we just talked to the other girl and said we can all be friends but we really need to get along!

cutieme03 on 7/21/2009 11:14:03 AM

that totally sucks. maybe you should just all hang out together once but if you can't stand that tell your friend how you feel and plan a shopping trip or something just you and her

My BFF has been ignoring me these days, and I'm confused why. People told me that it's because I don't tell her any "secrets", you know, like about guys and stuff. So she ignores me whenever I'm around and we don't really talk like we used to. I dont really talk to her because everytime I talk to her about guys she usually acts like she doesnt care. And since I dont tell her anything she doesnt tell me anything. It makes me feel left out. So I find some other people to hang out with, and that makes her think I am mad at her. I tried to talk to her about it, but she didnt want to hear anything about it. And I dont want to hurt her feelings or make her even madder at me.
Im tired of chasing her down to solve the problem and everyone keeps on pestering me with questions about what happened between us. What should I do if she doesnt want to listen to what I have to say? Help!




Hey Girl, a real bff will hear you out, try talking to or even writing her a note explaining how you feel and how you still wanna be bff, give her some time and im sure she will come back around and things can return to normal. *Cara T*

I Know how that feels my BFFs other friend is dead jelous of me, she is always picking fights with me and im tired of it i dont want to hurt my BFFs feelings and make her choose me or her. I still want to be freinds with my bff and I want to try nd be good freinds with her freind please tell me what should i do? HELP!




Hey babe,

Tell your friend how you feel and let her know that you want to keep being friends with her but that you can't if she keeps acting this way. It'll take some time, but if your friendship is important to her and you're patient and encouraging, she'll make the change.

fired up is totally right. sleepovers are great to bond over and plus you'll be able to talk to your bff about your concerns with girl #3- no interruptions!

chic chick on 7/20/2009 11:23:28 AM

YOu should plan a sleep over for 2 and go over it on the phone so the other girl won't hear. I always do it with my bff and we watch a funny movie and we made that type of sleep over just for us

fired up on 7/20/2009 10:20:46 AM

That must be pretty annoying! but yeah her other friend does seems jealous of u and ur BFF, so just show her that she doesnt have to be
