"There was this really cute boy and me and my friend both liked him. So I told her and she got so mad that she ditched me. Then I was about to tell her something and we acted like it never happened."
--Eden, 9

"Me and my friend Allison were fighting over a guy named Dominic. He was really cute and it started to break up our friendship. When it was recess I told her that I know we like the same guy and I wanted to solve it. She agreed and we talked a lot and in the end we said to each other that it was silly and we thought about why we liked him. The only reasons we liked him were because he was cute and it would get us cooler. We told each other, wow. We forgot all the important stuff. If he were smart, had a good personality, and a good sense of humor it would be a different story but he had none of that. So we moved on and thought of him as just a friend."
--Cara, 8

"Actually, she doesn't know that I like her crush."
--Mayra, 12

"Okay...actually it was two of my friends and we all liked the same guy and we decided not to go with him because it would hurt two of us. Well, my one friend ended up dating him and me and my other friend hated her for it because she acted snobby, like, ha-ha-I got him. Anywayz!"

"My friend and I already crushed on the same guy. I crushed on him for 2 years and we were almost best friends. She crushed on him for 6 months. One day I told him the way I felt for 2 years and I couldn't speak to him. She told him how she felt and he rejected her too. We both knew that if he would have accepted one of us we would have stayed friends, but some how I think that she would try anything to break off our relationship!"
--Tanya

"I can't deal with it. I just cried all day long. She didn't know that I had a crush on her guy so she kind of didn't care. But I knew, so I didn't say anything."
--Denise, 10

"I have a crush on a girl named Tammy but my best friend Thatch likes her too. Why does this always happen to relationships! I love Tammy!!! If you are reading this Tammy, I love you. Give me a kiss!"
--Leon, 10

"I think I have a crush on this guy and I know that he likes me but since we first met we have been really rude to each other and I talk badly about him when my friends are around. I don't know how to say it to him without anyone thinking I'm a freak."
--Kristen, 11

"My problem with my crush is I wrote something in my diary about him and when we were in Social Studies one of my friends let him see what I wrote! He wrote in my diary 'I Don't Like Christian' and now I don't know if he likes me or not. Tell me what I should do to make him like me again."
--Christian, 12

"Uh, huh! Me and my friend Chantel like this boy Joseph in my class. I started going out with him and she got mad. Then Joe and me broke up and now Chantel goes out with Joe, but he gets annoyed with her because she is obsessed!!"
--Ke'Cha, 12

"In 8th grade I had a good friend (let's just say her name was Heather) and we had just gotten our new schedules and we saw we were in band class together. The first day of class I saw this guy in my class named Orlando and I was really crushing on him. When I went to fifth period (band) I saw Heather and Orlando (he was in all of my classes). I asked Heather if she knew him and she said that she didn't. She also told me that she was really crushing on him too. I was really sad and I decided to tell her that I liked him too. She didn't say anything after that. About two weeks went by and I still didn't know Orlando and never talked to him but Heather did. Heather told me that one of her friends told her that Orlando liked her and she was so happy. I had a big smile on my face but inside my heart was ripping apart. The first dance of the school came along (the Halloween dance) and Heather told me that she was going to go and that Orlando was 'supposed to' ask her out there."
--Luz

"My friend and I like a boy named Justin and I think he likes me more than her. Just yesterday I told him that I liked him and today she told him that she liked him too. I don't want her to find out if he says yes to me and says no to her. If she finds out I am going out with him, I am afraid that Justin might get between our friendship and she might get mad at me because I like him and she does too. I am just going to choose between them. It is REALLY going to be a hard choice!"
--Rachael, 11

"Me and my friend have the same crush on this boy named Daniel. She knows that I had a crush on him first. Everyday she's mad at me for something and every time I hang around with her she is talking about me behind my back. I don't know what to do, care about Daniel or care about friendship? I really love both. I know that both of us think he is cute!!!!"
--Kerline, 10

"I told my best friend Julie that I liked Mason, a student in my class. She told me I should tell him the truth, but he was my friend and I was afraid he would take it the wrong way and get upset. I finally told him, but I acted shy and he just ignored me. My advice is don't be afraid to say you love somebody. Just act like you are proud of it."
--Kimmy, 8

"Me and my friend like the same boy. But now I like two different boys named Jeremy and JP."
--Shakeidra, 10

"My friend told me that she liked my boyfriend and I got kind of jealous. I thought a boy couldn't stop us from being friends. I broke up with him because he said he liked her while we were going out. So I broke up with him and we are still friends."
--Marisela, 11

"My friend and I both had a crush on the same guy and he was real cute!!! I dealt with it fine because then we could both talk about it with each other. So it makes it better if we both have a crush on the same guy. I was so not mad, and if I was, I would have told her by now and she would have been flat on the ground!! HA HA!!!!"
--Alexis, 9

"Yes! My friend still does & I tried ignoring it, it's impossible!!! I knew him first!!!"
--Sarah, 13

"We made him choose between us."
--Red

"I had a crush on a boy who goes to my school. All my classmates and friends do too. I haven't figured why yet. I keep my feelings hidden, so no one knows. No one knows I like him so it doesn't matter. Just don't ever tell and your problem's solved."
--Jenny, 10

"Me and my best friend Jessica have a crush on the same boy."
--Emily, 10

"YES!!!!!! My boyfriend Colton was being hit on by my two friends Lacy & Amanda! I was so mad that after school I walked up to them and yelled 'QUIT HITTING ON MY BOYFRIEND!!!' I felt much better afterwards because Colton and I went to his place hand in hand! Then at his house he kissed me and said 'Lacy & Amanda are never going to part us. I promise that.'"
--Nikole, 12

"My best friend and I both have a crush on this boy and it is her boyfriend so I don't want her to get mad at me for asking her boyfriend out. If I did she wouldn't call me or even talk to me in class! I really want him to know how I feel, but I just don't want to hurt her feelings at all or else I wouldn't have any friends. SO my question is, should I tell the boy I like him or should I let her have him and leave him alone?"
--Amanda, 12

"My best friend and me like the same guy and he knows that I like him but he doesn't know my friend likes him."
-- Dana, 11

"Hi! My name is Brooke and I had a crush on the same person as my friend did. His name is Aran. After all that, my friend did not like him anymore and so he started to like me and he asked me out. I've been going out with him ever since."
--Brookey, 12

"Me and my very best friend (Betsy) both liked the same boy. We both tried to impress him, like making cards and stuff. I did not find out who he liked until I asked him if he wanted to go to a movie. He said that he already had plans. From then on he takes both of us out."
--Megan, 10

"I was so mad at first but I got over it and got a new crush."
--Karli, 12

"I told my friend she could have him because I don't want him anyways."
--Tasheema, 13

"No, but once I had this crush that everybody knew about at the end of the school year. I was thinking about him every single night of the summer and when I came back for the next school year he became a total slob."
--Ashley, 9

"I have a lot of friends that like the same guy I do. His name is Danny. He is not the cutest guy, but he is the sweetest and the nicest. That is why we like him. For now he is one of my best friends. That is just for now!!"
--Ashley, 12

"We told each other on the second day of grade 2. We just stay away from him. I couldn't just tell her I saw him first. She was the first one to tell him we liked him. We did not tell him together until the last day of school."
--Tashi, 9

"Me and my friend Quanisha both liked a boy named David. He liked me more than her and he would always follow me around school. When I would have braids in my hair, he would follow me around saying, 'You're pretty,' and touching my hair. My friend Quanisha would get jealous because the first day I came to school he liked her first. I had a crush on him the first time I saw him. His eyes are baby blue and the best I have ever seen. He is so beautiful to me. He's a straight hottie. I could just die for him."
--Ashleigh, 9

"My friend Erika and I liked the same guy way back in 6th grade. His name is David and we were going out. Erika knew about the relationship David and I were having but she still insisted on BREAKING US UP! From then on, I haven't even talked to her. David and I are still going out but it was because of his cuteness and nice personality that made Erika and I stop being friends. All you girls out there, don't let the same thing happen to YOU!"
