Don't mention the words "best friend" when discussing your new friend to your best buddy. Best friends are worked at, so if this friend is new in your life you are simply "friends" for now and reassure your best friend that they are simply just that. Slowly introduce your new friend to her/him, but be sure your new friend isn't always around and you do a few things with your best friend. If this is not working then you are going to have to have a talk with her/him and let them know they are not going to be leading your life. All of us have many friends on different plateau's. We have acquaintances, then friends we see more often and then there are a few very close friends and finally the "best friend." Each friend should be treated with respect, but that doesn't mean one of those friends should ever dictate to you how to live and who to choose as friends. 20 years ago I had a best friend (we met when she was ill) so we were very close. Then we had new neighbors move next door to our house. They were a young married couple and I became friends with the wife. It was easier to see her of course because they were next door and we'd get together fairly often on the weekends. The odd time her and her husband would come over for a evening. My best friend finally admitted she was extremely jealous of this girl. Since I hadn't dumped my best friend and frequently went out with her, I honestly didn't feel this fair, so I had a talk with her. I slowly introduced her to my new friend and had them both over at times and they seemed to get along. In time, my best friend decided that she didn't want to share me with someone else and demanded I give my friend up. I refused and told her straight up that she was not going to control my life, that she would always be my best friend and no one could take the place of her. There was a period after that where my best friend refused to see me, but, again, in time she started to come around and I just kept her from my new friend so there would be no hard feelings. I also learned a lesson and was more aware of what I was doing so I wouldn't hurt my best friend. Best friends are simply fearful that they will be left out and forgotten and it's true that in some cases this can happen. It's a balancing act, but one many of us will have to do. When we are always around our best friend there are many great fun memories that make an imprint on both, and your best friend couldn't stand to lose you. Good luck Marcy
You probably shouldn't be friends. If you are always jealous of your best friend, you will always fight and whats the point in that? I mean, a few fights are good for a friendship. But if you are constantly jealous and figting, mabye you should find a new group of people
Friends can be a laugh. Most people admire this in a person, and it's what makes them such a good friend. They can also be honest, someone you can tell all your secrets to. A friend can be sweet and cute, and they help you and support you through every little obstacle in your life. But with positives comes negatives. Friends can be quite annoying sometimes. People may need their space every once in a while, and your best friend may not realise this. They can also be very moody, if they don't get their way. A friend can be jealous, if you start to hang around with other people, but instead of looking at this as a flaw, you should tell yourself they're only being jealous because they don't want to lose you.
If your friends make you feel bad, then they are not your friends. If they apologize and not do it again, fine. Some people may get jealous or tease you without them knowing that you don't like it. Tell them! If they do not listen then you have no other option then to walk away and not think about it, sooner or later they will come around. -A.
being jealous is a feeling. if you are jealous of your friends or something talk to them. if you are jealous because your parents dont get you things your friends get then tell your parents how you feel. try it now and see if it works, communicating is the best way to get questions answered
Lots of people are imbarassed to tell their friends the truth, but that's what you have to do.
Hang out with him on weekend and not around your friends if you don't like what they say.
The person you want to make jealous is not your friend. A friend is someone with whom you have a bond of mutual affection, personal regard and who you like and enjoy being with. All the feelings associated with true friendship are positive and supportive. You would not seek to burden your friend with jealousy.
Jasmine is 100% a true friend! She is usually friends with probably everyone.. but if you mess with jasmine, she won't put up with it! Some people are mad cause they aren't Jasmine's friend, but she is only friends with people who mean alot to her, and that are trustworthy and fun to be around. If I had to pick a friend PLEASE go to Jasmine.
People who like you and enjoy be around you. So try to be nice, and get along with your friend! Don't be friends with someone who treats u badly and that he or she will like to be with you and that she or he is always there for you.
66-67%--a recent study said 32-33% of people don't have a best friend..
Try talking to your friend in private (not when the popular people are around) if she doesn't listen, she's not worth your time.
You brag about your stuff if its cool you get a girlfriend or boyfriend (i dont know what gender you are) u brag about your report card IF its good you do stuff that he or she is not good at and try to get them angry that your so good at it and there not hang out with the cool people and get the cool people to like you- Just try to like make them want to BE you!!
