My best friend stole the girl I love!

Question - (31 January 2011) 10 Answers - (Newest, 3 February 2011)
A male United States age 26-29, anonymous writes:

So I really like this girl and my friend seems to like her too. I've thought this for awhile and I don't knownwhat to do. My friend claims to have a gf but I've never seen her so Idk if he's lying. The girl I like is really pretty smart and funny. When I was in 8th Period my class had to go to the computer lab. I tried to sit near her without making it seem obvious but when I sat down he called her over to sit next to him. I was jealous out of my mind when I saw that and we have been almost like rivals since we've know each other. They have been friends since kindergarten while I've only know her since 6th grade. If she had to choose I know she would pick him over me. She doesn't know how I feel and neither does he(I haven't told any of of my friends). So girls what is about a guy that makes you like him?

You seem to have answered all of my past questions and you're right about me being too nervous. I've always been a confident person so y stop now? Youve give me great advice. I've come to this site so often I've forgotten just how confident I really am. It's time for me to man up and take care of my business. Thanks for all of the help tennisstar88

tennisstar88 agony auntIf you like her, you ask her out. Regardless if your close friends or not. In fact, you don't want to be close friends with her because she'll place you in the friend zone. That makes you two too good of friends to be able to date.

Don't sit there assuming she likes him..you don't know that for a fact.

Your biggest problem is your too nervous to ask this girl out, you keep on making excuses as to why you haven't made your move yet.

To get close to her you would have to hang out with her, outside of school..that means either falling into the friends zone or actually asking her out on a date. Since your friend also has a girlfriend, you two could double date..those are fun at your age.

You can try to get to know her as best you can in school. Which is going to be challenging depending on how many classes you have together, if you can sit by her, and how mean your teachers are about no talking. Just talk to her a little more, to get to know a bit more than you do, then make your move. You've know her since 6th grade, how much more do you really need to know before you ask her out?

Even though I'm friends with her we aren't close friends so I can't just ask her out. Even though I'm not competing with him he is still closer to her than me and just because he has a girlfriend doesnt mean she might not like him although he doesn't like her. To add to my question how can I get closer to this girl so I can be more comfortable when I ask her out.

I talked to my friend and he said he didn't lie when he said he had a gf. He even said that his gf was much prettier than the girl I was talking about and he didn't even want her. His girl doesn't go to our school and the girl I want knows her so I believe him. He doesn't even think the girl I want is the prettiest in our classes. And he even told me that. I thought I was conceited but he is ridiculous cocky. I still haven't told him I like her but I think he knows since I spoke very highly of her in our conversation.

I don't know why your friend lied to you. Maybe he has a gf really and is just trying to be friendly to your girl since he does not know you like her.

Why don't you ask him to introduce you to his gf? he will if he has one and then you can tell him that you like that girl and maybe then he would stop being barriers all the time.

Or you can simply ask him if he like that girl ( just like a friend and don't give the impression that you are a rival to him)

Hope it helps

tennisstar88 agony auntThat question varies per girl, even at 13. When I was 13-15, girls liked guys who were cute, funny (class clown), into sports, and popular. But I'm 26 now and times have probably changed.

Really it depends on what this girl likes. You assume she would pick your friend but you're not certain. Why don't you put the word out that you like her too? Or even tell her yourself?

Well, Honestly it's just when you're nice to her. Get to know her and talk to her. She'll let you know within a short time if she likes you too. Get her number and text her. If she answer's alot shes in for it. If she answers for about ten minutes and then stops. She's not into it.

:) Just wing it! Hang out with her outside of school (if possible)
