Hi Jharia,
I really don't know what you can do to stop the feelings you have for this person. I do know what you should not do in order to keep the situation from getting really awkward. Whatever you do, don't tell your friend or this guy about your feelings. Don't tell anyone that would tell either of them. You would risk losing your friend if you were to say anything and he has made his feelings clear.

Your welcome I see that someone above said that your friend doesn't even like him? If that is true then you should just bide your time. Still, keep your feelings to yourself for now. Let him realize on his own that she does not like him. Stay completely out of that situation. Let it run it's course without any intervention from you. In time, he may or may not find himself attracted to you. There is still hope but for now just be patient. ok?

Tell yourself to stop the feeling before it's too late. If you consider your friendship with her important, might as well not to fall in love him. It will just create a fight that later you'll regret. i know you are tired of hearing this: There are a lot of guys out there. But it's true. Don't focus on that small point. The world is big. And there are a lot of people you haven't meet. Just force yourself not to fall in love. Let your friend fall in love with him then observe how the guy treats her. It might be painful at first but you'll let go of him slowly if you see any flaws he has on how he treats girls.

You can't stop seeing him coz you're in the same class. You can't take him away from your friend unless you wanted her to label you as a snatcher. My advice is, stay away from those duos, and get your man when she's off.

Oh how we wish we could control our hearts and you cannot help not be able to control yours. This must be hard for you my friend as you are in love with a love that cannot be yours.
Try really hard sweetie to add a bit of space between you and the guy you love, although it will be hard maybe doing so may help as the more you see and speak to him the more your heart pounds.

Hi jharia,
If you are "madly" in love, that is not love at all. Be extra careful, you may end up on the losing end. You are attracted to a flame that may burn you in the end.
In its mysterious ways, love does not begin with attraction but with a force that repels. Just like magnetism, opposites attract and vice versa. An opposing force would not do you any good at all, and therein lies the crux of the matter.
Again, be extra conscious of the forces of nature, it may make or break you.

That is a very tricky situation, and I can understand your predicament. I'm sure you wouldn't want to hurt your friend as well, so my advice is just try to stay away from him little by little and make your interactions less and less. It will be hard, but it's worth a try. Also, you can focus your attention on something or someone else. You may discover another person worth your love and attention. Cheers!

Take it from an older person: I know that what you might be feeling is like the end of the world, or heaven and earth, but trust me, it's not worth it. If he doesn't love you, then move on. Find other cirles, meet new people. I'm sure that when you meet someone new, who you will fall in love, and will also fall in love with you, you'll be thinking that your current was just silly.
The future is surely brighter.

im sorry for that i guess is hard. but you should try to put in your head that he loves your friend. i know is hard i also liked a guy before and he act bad to me and i thought i wouldnt love again. but i put in my head he wouldnt love me. you also talk with him is ok but dont be around him too much time. try to look to other guys around you^^ im sure that in your class there are also other sweet guys. just open up your heart^^ maybe you will see a guy that likes you that you didnt notice yet.

You are in a difficult situation dear and i think it would be best if you think deep and accept the fact that he could never be yours. Try to divert your attention to other things instead or making yourself deeply involve in him more. If you can avoid him, then do so. Nothing can help yourself in this situation but you alone. Try to be strong and condition your mind. Remember our mind is in our head above the heart because God made it that way, for our brain to be superior in times of trouble.

You say your friend doesn't like him right? If this is the case then you must decide if there is any real chance with this guy. Does he know your friend does not like him that way? Or are they dating and he just doesn't know her feelings are not as strong for him as his are for her? Either way I would NOT be the one to tell him. But maybe you could be honest with your friend, if the two of them aren't dating, she may be able to make it clear to him that she doesn't love him, or just wants to be his friend. And if that happened, he would be free to move on and see you as a possibility. Right now his attention is focused on her so maybe he just can't see how wonderful you are.
You need to decide how much time you want to spend on finding out. I'm assuming you are young, as this is when these type of things happen the most in life. Decide how much time and emotion you are willing to spend on this boy, and do not spend one moment more than you decide is healthy for you. The truth is, even if he did fall for you it probably wouldn't last forever if you and he are very young, and if his affections are so easily shifted. I wish you luck, and if it doesn't work out, just remember that it is simply because your life was meant for something better that will only be revealed in time.
