writes:I've developed a crush for a close friend and I'm trying to get rid of this sentiment (a relationship is out of the question right now) but I'm also feeling really jealous of another friend. The boy I'm crushing on is really sweet but he's a touchy kind of guy. He's always hugging people, kissing them on the cheeks or even biting them. I've never minded it before...it's just the way he is and I'd never ask him to change.However, my friend who has a 5 year long distance relationship not only lets him do all these things to her but I'd say that sometimes she even seeks them out, which totally annoys me. For example, we spent the afternoon together last night and my crush was holding my hand, caressing it, when my friend reached back, looking for his hands. He let go of me and hugged and kissed her cheek. I guess that the problem comes when the three of us are together. When I'm alone with him everything is fine, but when my friend is also with us I have the feeling that he's always paying more attention to her, hugging her, kissing her, biting her... while I just look on. I have the feeling that they're becoming closer friends and I'm being left out...I'm not sure of what to do. I don't want to lose either friendship but I don't know how to get rid of these evil jealous feelings.

 I know the feeling, I'm in a similar situation with a girl that I want to be with but she only wants to be mates.Mine was a little more serious though as we were basically FWB but she's kinda changed her mind on that too and now just wants strictly friends which has hurt me a lot as it was going great, she just felt bad about it.Of course, it's very hard to watch your crush and your friend do these little things together and it would be hard not to become jealous as I very much know the feeling myself, I was contemplating breaking things off and trying to forget about her but I just can't bring myself to do it.
