But if your friends are really great and precious to you then stick with what they say, they may know more than you think. For me my friends come before anybody I wanna go out with, and I think it should be the same for everybody. But if your friends arent all that good, then go out w/ the girl and make some new friends.

If there is something they don't like about her they should make the effort to either ignore it or get over it. Have the tried talking to her and getting to know her better? They are your friends they should support you in your decisions and who you chose to see but at the end of the day its your opinion that matters, no one else's. It is your life.

I'm curious as to why your friends "hate her". Do they know something you don't? Or are they just being jealous? There's nothing worse then having to choose between your friends and a "girl". I mean, can't we all just get along? Find out from your friends what their problem is. If it's just jealousy, maybe she has some friends and you all could go out one night. But if it's something else, you might want to look at how important that "something else" is and make your own decision. Peace-

 There's no real way to find out much about this girl unless you get to know her, is there? So, if you feel that strongly, ask her out... and tell your "friends" to mind their own business. Who gives a flying... stuff... what your friends think of her? THEY'RE not going out with her; you are.
If there's one personal attribute that you're going to need as an adult, it's the ability to make your own decisions and accept the outcome, whether it's good or bad. Here's a great place to start. You obviously see something in this girl that those other boys don't, so trust your own judgement!
Any of your so-called friends who'd give you grief for liking a girl and wanting to get to know her better are just, well, weenies.
Don't worry about people like them; they're the sort of kids who just say whatever they think is going to win them the most social "points". In the end, guys like that end up being timid little wimps who try (and fail) to please everybody.
Go on, enjoy yourself and tell your friends to go fly a kite!
