Many instances like this happens.. even some of my friends experience this.. but what I don't like is that one of my close friends "Girl" have this crush on "Guy" and she tells her other close friend "Gal" about her feelings about Guy. But when she introduces GUy and Gal to each otehr, Gal starts hitting on Guy and they even become a couple- even though Gal knows how her friends feels for that guy.. I really pity Girl, becasue she is quite shy...

Those are what guys do...I did encounter a situation like that too- two guys fighting over my friend- it ended well though, since my friend liked one of the guys and the other guy just surrendered, no physical injuries.

Yes, I will do what you'll do too. I would choose my studies first because true love can wait- and it'll come at the right time, I hope. But school can't be postponed since it's our future we are risking..

Sadly thats how life is, and there you cant tell your feelings first you loose, holding on to them doesnt do any good either so.. be the first to let the others know your feeling even if nothing happen, he is just not meant for you and there are plenty of other fishes lol

Yes, there are lots of fishes around.. Some girls are just shy, even I am shy. I hope we both learn how to express our feelings. Thank you for your response.

Well that is very common among peers. A girl has a crush on a guy but another girl which is her friend will tease them but at the end of the day, the friend and the guy will have the relationship. I felt stupid on this because my best friend on college did this to me and the worst is, she flirt the guy I like and even make bad stories about me.

That is just horrible of your friend, are you still friends with her? Making up bad stories about you is just so bad... I hope the guy didn't believe any f it- I hope you find a guy for you..

For me if you are a good friend and true to you friend you let your best friend happy to the boy you both love then Jehovah God will provide you you find the one who is the gift in you for that case you love your best friend and the same time to Jehovah God.

I believe what you are saying... real friendship means sacrifices... Maybe this is just one of the trials their friendship is undergoing. I do hope they find themselves a different guy.

Well, I would tell "Girl" that she is lucky to have an escape from "Guy". If she did tell "Guy" of her feeling and they became a couple, what would "Girl" feel later on when she introduced "Gal" to this "Guy"? Cause it appears that "Gal" has no conscience at all...

I don't really know gal so I can't tell what her real attitude is.. But recently Girl says she is rebelling or something- I do hope Gal doesn't do anything like this anymore- since Girl is too nice..

Girl deserves someone better... hopefully she would find one. Fro your story here "Gal" is at least a good friend of "Girl".

Dear 'Lady' your friends the 'Girl',the 'Gal' and the'Guy' are a universal phenomenon.You have heard of the saying 'All is fair in love and war'.The only thing we can do is maybe ask the 'Girl' to be a little more assertive.And i really believe having a crush is a teenage characteristic (though it can happen in adults).If as an adult you really want to be with a person you should have the courage to go up and tell that person so.Or else you should curb your desires at the start itself

Yes, I agree with you, buy my friend is quite shy and even if I tell her to confess, she wouldn't. But it would have been nice if gal respected my friend's feelings and didn't go for guy though...

I feel sorry that your friend finds herself in this situation. Although I don't think that this friend she talked to about her feelings is really a true friend. I don't think that a true friend would actually do something like that, knowing that their friend has feelings for this guy. I just don't think that it's fair or right. I'm just sorry that this happened to a friend of yours.

I am sorry for my friend too- I am not really sure what happened since I wasn't really there. I do hope nothing like this happens to her again, she's been hurt twice now.

I can't help it if such things are meant to happen. Both of them has the freedom and right to choose, where love is concerned. When such feelings appear, it's not easy to control it. Isn't it better for them to be together before the guy gets snatched while in a relationship with friend? I won't get together with a guy when he's so easily swayed by temptations or have no stand on his own.I know such a relationship won't last, so why start in the first place right?

Yeah, at least Girl and Guy weren't really in a relationship yet and maybe my friend girl would realize that Guy isn't really for him at all... But I think what's more important is still friendship and assurance that Gal won't hurt Girl anymore.

Well I feel sorry for the girl too. And I think she has every right to be angry at her friend. I mean how could a BEST friend do that. That's just so wrong. I mean if I were in her shoes, even if I like the guy I still wouldn't date him. I mean, I value friendship more than a relationship with some guy I barely knew. Friendship is forever but romantic relationships may end.

Yes, that friend of her is a bit selfish though and Girl (my close friend) was a bit angry about it, but more sad because she couldn't believe that Gal could do that to her.. But i think she forgives her now-I agree with you, friendship is more important..

Wow.. I really admire your friend. It takes a lot of kindness and humility to forgive something like that.

That is one trait I admire in my friend too- she never holds grudges and forgive people easily. She is a really nice and generous person.. but sometimes he's too nice though.

Yes, i think this is quite a common problem, especially if the guy is cute and charming..which the guy was- I met him once. But no guy is worth fighting for- so girls shouldn't steal otehr friend's guys to begin with..
