"My friend likes the same guy I do. I can't be mad at her, but sometimes I feel I am. She is more out in the open, which means I am shy. Will she get him before me? I hope not. What should I do? Should I tell him I like him first?"

"I'm never in that situation. It's partly because I don't get myself into it. I get to know guys that no one else likes and it works out PERFECTLY! I have a boyfriend that's never had a girlfriend before and I really really like him even though other people don't."

--Jessica, 11

"My friend Megan and I both had a crush on this one guy named Danni. I told him that I liked him before Megan because she was too scared. It turned out that he liked BOTH OF US the same way but he didn't want to choose between us because he figured it might end up in a fight. We all agreed to try to control our feelings and not be biased towards any one person in our group. Now we are all the best of friends."
--Raya

"When I went to camp 2 summers ago, there was this boy named Anthony. I had a crush on him and went out with him for about a week but he was older than me. Since he was older, he liked one of my older friends Jessica. Should I be mad at her and him or just forget about it?"
--Chant'e, 9

"I regret doing this but I got all my friends to yell at her. She cried and we made up but on one condition: she stopped liking him and it worked."
--Michelle

"I have a crush on this boy. My old friend Aneeka liked him too. He told me that he liked me, which made me feel a lot better. Aneeka once wrote in her draft book, 'I have a major crush on Alec.' She gave it to the teacher who said, 'Aneeka, that's very nice to know but do not write romance.' She got over him and now everything's ok."

"One time in 5th grade, I liked this boy and he liked me too, but when my friend admitted to me that she liked him, she told him and he liked her too. They were always near each other until I told her how I felt about him. She dumped him and got him to totally notice me. Now he's my boyfriend. That shows a great friend. Some other advice would be to talk to him, but don't flirt with him too often until you win him over."

"Me and my friend liked the same guy. The guy liked both of us and wanted to be with both of us. We went up to him one day and asked him why he liked me and why he liked my friend. He said that we both meant a lot to him and he cared a lot. I told my friend to go ahead and be with him but she wanted him to be with me. I could not do that to her so we both told him we could not be with him. After, the three of us became best friends."
--Melissa, 13

--Elena, 11

"My friend and I both liked this really hot girl and it was around Valentine's Day. My friend already had like 3 girlfriends but he went for her anyway. I was so mad. I made a deal with him that I had sent her something that would be delivered on Valentine's Day and he couldn't ask her out until then. I don't know what is going to happen because it isn't Valentine's Day yet."
