Help! I'm crushing on my BFF's boy--am I a bad bestie?

I think I like my BFF’s BF. He’s into everything I’m into. I can’t stop thinking about him. What’s wrong with me?
 

Dear Guilty Pleasure,

Nothing is wrong with you, and it’s not really even wrong to like your friend’s boyfriend. In fact, it’s fairly common since a bud’s BF is easy to get to know. But it would be wrong to act on your feelings. Don’t flirt, and don’t confess all. Instead, be patient and keep your eyes open. Think of a guy in your school you’d like to know better. Say “hi” to him tomorrow and, soon, you may be thinking about him instead of a boy who is taken.

My BFF has like this boy for years, but I like him too. She obviously doesn't know this. I think he likes me, and we text, but I don't want to lose my friend. She means everything to me. There's also another boy that likes me, and it would break his heart if he figured out I like this boy. I don't know what to do. Please help

 

Hey girl,

At the end of the day, you've gotta make yourself happy. You have to weigh the possibilities. Would getting together with your crush be worth losing your best friend? Figure out what it is that you want and then go and get it. xoxo

Hey. So I have this good friend and we both like the same guy. I have liked him for a while now. They recently started texting and it sounds like he likes her. They hang out a lot. I don't really talk to him all that much, and honestly I don't think he even remembers my name. My friend is really pretty and sweet and everyone likes her (and knows her). I am not as popular and havent had experience with relationships. So basically I don't stand a chance. I guess this all sounds pretty stupid, and I don't want it to bother me, but it does. She knows that I like him and that I am kind of upset about it. I really don't know what to do, or if I should do anything at all. Please help!

Hi. I have this thing that I'm kinda worried about. So, I thought that this guy liked me -lets call him Niall-, then I started to like him. But I never woul've liked him until I started to know he liked me. And to me, that seems like one of those girls who think they'll never be able to get another guy ever, and that she's lucky enough to have a guy like her. Because I'm not like that at all! But I have NO IDEA what I'm doing! Especially now, because one of my best friends told me that she thinks that Niall likes her. But this was before I told her, and Knowing her, she definatley WILL tell him or one of his friends, or one of her friends that I hate. Why do I like him because of this, and how do i keep my best friend from telling anyone (because even if you make her promise, she will never keep a secrete that she thinks effects her life so much.)?

 

Hey soccacheer, if you beg her not to tell anyone, you will keep reminding her and she will definitely spill the beans. Never bring him up and even when she talks about him, don't say anything. Hope this helps! Xoxo

i have a question its related to this story...my bff has a crush on this guy that i kind of like 2 and me and him hang out a lot and i have a lot of fun im not sure if he likes me but if he does what do i do??? im so confused ---Love Confusion

 

Hey TacoGirly, you guys should make an agreement for when it comes to liking the same boy. Agree that neither of you get him so no one gets hurt. Hope this helps! Xoxo

It doesnt make you a bad friend it just makes you human. Try to get your mind on another guy unless your bff may not be so into him. But since its her bf you will probably ruin your friendship. And if he doesnt respond to your interest in him, it may be very awkward for you.

My BGF and I have been friends since kindergarten,but recently it feels like we've been drifting apart. Although he's my neighbor it seems like the only time I get to see him is on the bus, and he spends that time listening to rap. How can we get back to being the friends we used to be?

 

hey girl! you're probably really comfortable around him...so why can't you just casually ask him to hang out? try that!

xoxo

Hi ok I've liked this guy for over two years and last year I told him that I liked him and he rejected me Frown I couldn't get over him so I just decided to ignore my feelings. But lately, I just keep liking him more and more and theres no way for me to control these feelings for him anymore. I think he likes me though, because he's really nice to me, smiles at me, stares at me and always encourages me to do stuff like trumpet solos in band. We hold each others gaze for like 30 seconds. I don't know, think he likes me. I want to try one more time, and ask him out. If he says yes, well, great, but if he says no, it would be really annoying, because, well, I should've understood that last year, right? Do you think he likes me? Should I ask him out? Or should I just try to ignore my feelings again? Thanks

 

hey girl! there's nothing wrong with asking out a guy, but maybe you should let it be his turn this time. or you could just make it casual by asking him to "hang out some time". it takes some pressure off of it and makes it easier to ask!

xoxo

SO I HAVE A DANCE AT MY SCHOOL I JUST WANT TO WEAR JEANS THOUGH. IS THERE ANY WAY I COULD MAKE THEM LOOK CUTE AND SOMETHING WITH MY HAIR??? HOW ABOUT MAKEUP I WANT TO WEAR A LITTLE WITHOUT GOING OVER BOARD!

 

Hey girl! Well at dances people mostly wear dresses...but if you feel wearing jeans is more true to you, then I say go for it! You could try pairing them with a fun and dressy top, and don't forget a cute jacket. For your hair, you could use one of these:

and for makeup, try a nice smokey eye and lip gloss.
