Unhappy Did I do the right thing with this guy? - March 20th 2010, 03:54 PM

Ok so my best friend really likes our guy friend. Well she talks about it all the time and she talks about how she wants to go to prom with him. Well so me and a few of her other friends have been bugging him to go to prom with her. And well yesterday on text he brought up the subject of prom so heres how our convo went:
Him:why do you guys all keep telling me to go with her.
Me: Dude she likes you thats why and you know no matter what you say shes not gona be a drama queen about it.
Him: I have this convo alot
Me: I bet from what she told me almost every girl you're friends with likes you.
Him: Yeah it gets awkward.

Yeah well I think shes annoyed at me or him or I don't know. I know shes annoyed because she thinks that he might like me because we've been getting closer these past few weeks. I don't think I really did anything wrong though but I still feel bad. I mean eventually the truth was going to come out... I dk...

Yeah and she knows that I like him too and we've sort of talked about stuff like what if he asked me out blah blah blah but I dk I feel really bad about it all and I feel like I did something wrong. I dk if I should have told her I like him, but I mean I figured she should know.... I dk... What do you think?

It doesn't sound as if you did anything wrong. You said that you and her have talked about you both liking this guy...??? So why would she have any reason to get mad any way this guy chooses to go, either with you or with her? You are being supportive of him going with her so why can't she do the same in return? This just sounds like a normal old cat fight to me. Sounds as if she maybe getting jealous over you and this guy. BUt for what? All girl friends crush on the same guy and usually either or girl is happy which ever way the end result is. If she knows you like him also then I wouldn't be pushing him to go with her to prom. I would just enjoy your time with him and let life take it course. Talk to her of course. BUt I really do not think she has any reason to be getting jealous of upset with you. You know how mnay guys my girl firends and I have crushed on together nad I NEVER got the guy!? But I was happy for them. That's how most girl firned relationships are and should be. Supportive. GOod luck and have a blast at prom either way!


I Love You PeaPod

I think you did not do anything wrong at all if she really liked him she would of stop beating around the bush and just come out and make a move so, That's what you did you start talking to him and it changed in to a relationship so I think that you did the right thing stop feeling bad. Like they say First Come First Serve

He KNOWS she likes him, but he hasn't made a move. That means he does not like her back. We all like different things. I don't like Edward from twilight (GASP), but there are TONS of girls who'd disagree. If we all liked the same things, people would only mate with the same things and we'd all look the same. We are programmed to like different things for genetic variety and health, to make stronger children (weather we decide to have them or not).
I have been told I am very attractive by many men and also not attractive enough for other men (not more attractive men either). He likes what he likes. Your presence does not change that. He is not programmed to be attracted to her, even if you didn't exist. He is programmed to be attracted to you. Why? God knows, but it simply IS. It is nobody's fault and it does not mean your friend isn't fantastic. I don't think a lot of "hot celebrities" are attractive, but that doesn't mean that millions of people agree with me. Just because this one guy doesn't think your friend is hot, does not mean she isn't or can't get men as hot or hotter than him (who also have great personalities duh). She just needs to find a guy who is wired to fancy her. Some are. Some aren't. She'd theoretically make stronger babies with those that are. (Yeah, it often comes down to mating instincts which isn't always practical, but it is why we have the hots for each other).
You did nothing wrong. How could you steel something that was never and will never be hers no matter what you do?
Besides, you are probably fantastic too, but there will be men who aren't programmed to be attracted to you either. This one is by coincidental genetics and hormone levels. It's a lottery really. (All of this is "if he likes you," which he might not, which obviously doesn't mean you aren't a total catch.)
