"I just say we like him equal and that he likes both of us. Even if he doesn't, it doesn't matter because I don't want to be mean or get anyone hurt, especially me."
--Daria, 10

"There is this boy at school. His name is Jayce. He and is going out with me but my friend keeps on asking him out. It's really bad because I think he's starting to like her!"
--Brittany, 10

"Me and my best friend had a crush on the same guy and I had liked him last year too. She kept on talking to him and telling him that she's liked him since last year and never talked to him about me. He was going to ask her to dance at the Charity Ball so I told her I wished she would die. I told her I hated her for a couple of weeks and then she started crying and kept staring at me and begging me for a second chance so I gave her one. She still hasn't stopped talking about my crush. This isn't like a 'he's hot, I luv him' crush it's a real 'I luv him' crush. So I was really depressed all the time and everything."
--Tory, 12

"YES. I told her to lay off and find her own man."
--Kathy, 10 --Lisa, 11

"Yes and I did not take it so good. Me and my friend were fighting over him all the time! I got over him in a month but now she is talking about him all the time!!!!!!!! I can't say a word without her saying his name. I had more fun fighting. I think he likes me but my friend will be sad if he likes me."
--Nicole, 8

"I have a crush on this kid and so does my best friend. I think he's crushing on her. Now I call her like every two seconds to talk about him. I do not know what to do!"
--Angie, 9

"I really want to tell my major crush of one and a half years that I like him and that I want to go out with him but I don't think he knows I exist. I think he knows I like him, but I don't know. I'm afraid to ask him out and every time my friend makes a friendly 'date' with him and me and other people to go to the movies, he says he would love to go with me (she mentions my name). But then he has to go skiing or something and just like a week ago he was going out with a fifth grader and kissing her and everything. He knows I saw it 'cause I was sitting right in front of them and crying. They broke up, but I don't know what to do. Since Valentine's Day is on Friday I want to give him something but I'm afraid to. I really like him."
--Tory, 12

"Well you see, I have a huge crush on this kid and I always have but the thing is he's one of my best friend's boyfriend!!!! What should I do? I don't know if I should tell him or give him a love letter!"
--Kelly, 11

"Well, this happened a pretty long time ago. Me and my friend Emily were crushing on this really cute guy a grade younger than us but he was held back. My friend rode the bus with him so I was kinda jealous. Every time he flirted with either of us we would always brag to the other about what he said or did to us. I ended up going out with him for like two or three months! I still kinda like him but he broke up with me 'cause he said he couldn't trust me 'cause he stopped going to my school and he said he would have no idea if I was going out with another guy while I was going out with him. He lives down the street from me and we still do stuff together but it is not like it used to be. Oh well."
--Alana, 12

"I used to like this guy named Bryan and my friend likes him now and she is getting mad at me because I hang out w/ my ex-crush and she thinks I'm flirting or something like that. At the same time, she is going around telling everyone that she is 'going out with him.' I asked my ex-crush Bryan if that were true and he said no. Anyway, she's telling everybody that I won't talk to her because she's 'going out w/ him' and even if she were, I wouldn't care because I just want him to be happy!!! The reason is because we are really good friends and he knows I used to like him and he's ok w/ it. My friend is still getting really jealous and I can totally see that she is mad at me because we talk all the time. I don't think it's fair that she is getting mad at me because we are friends and we aren't going to stop being friends just because she likes him!!!!!!! What do u think I should do?????"
--KT, 13

"OMG! My best friend and I are like one person. We have these vibes that make us like the same person at the same time. We never fight about it. It's actually more fun because we get to talk about it and they understand and don't think you are stupid or something!"
--Michelle, 12

"Me and my really good friend had a crush on the same guy. She said she loved this guy and she had a chance but it didn't work. He doesn't like her anymore so I think it's my turn even though she gets mad when I talk about him or whatever. I know if she is a real friend she would want me to be happy and she knows she's had her chance."
--Stacie

"I just backed off because I knew my friend went out with him. I just told her how I felt and we were ok then."
--Jessica, 12

"Well I met him in the second grade and I liked him but I don't know how to tell him. I need some ideas fast because I know this cheerleader named Emily and she likes him too. So do I though and I hate her and she is such a prep. Plus, she's a geek and he's such a hottie. I really like him. I'm a cheerleader and he is a boy cheerleader. I need some help FAST!"
--Mikaela, 9

"First my friend went out with him and I was really mad because I liked him and then he said he liked me but went out with her again. I don't know, it's hard."
--Bertha

"Oh yeah. It was a boy named Steven. He was new and VERY strong. Now he is a total geek. My friend liked him and she went out with him. I was mad. She got mad at me for wanting her to break up with him. She eventually did because she felt uncomfortable with him. I went out with him then. I broke up with him for the same reason. She said, 'Why did you go out with him when you knew I liked him?' I was like, 'You kept calling him a dork and stupid.' I was so mad. Now we are friends again and so far NO boys have come between our friendship."
--Jenna, 12

"I told her that I would stop liking him. She said no. Then she said she didn't want to be my friend any more."
--Brittany, 13

"My best friend and I both like this guy named Bradley. She doesn't know I like him. She jokes around about him and me going out. I really want to, but I'm scared. I would do anything for him, but I don't want to hurt or lose my best friend!!!"
--Melissa, 13

"It happened to me and my friend but we just talked about it and it all worked out for the best."
--Amber

"He said he has a girl but I think he likes me because he is nice to me. I hope he kisses me but should I kiss him?"
--Danielle, 10

"First I told her that we were friends and that that wouldn't be changed. Then we tried to get our love from him because he likes both of us. While he was flirting with my friend I got mad and when he was flirting with me my friend got really angry. Then we forgot about it and we stayed friends. Later he told me that he liked me and I told him I liked him."
--Lived, 10

"Me and my best friend had a crush on the same guy. How do you think me and my friend solved it? Well it was quite simple. At first this guy was really hot. We both wanted him and a couple of weeks later my best friend just got tired of him. You know, he is one of those jocks. Popular and into skateboarding .So it all ended up soon and I did not like him anymore. A couple of weeks later he told me his most embarrassing secret ever and he would die if anyone knew. He liked my best friend. So people that have a best friend, think before you act."
--Denise, 12

"My friend was online and she thought Jordan had asked her out. She started crushing on him. I had liked him for 2 years. I was so mad. I didn't know what to say considering my friend is an only child. I asked her if it was true. That night I did some research. It turns out he didn't ask her out. It was one of his snobby friends who said it. So if you are having problems with your friend over a boy, here's some advice: Don't. You'll break your friendship!!!"
--Ashley, 11

"My Bff and I had a HUGE crush on this guy named Tyler. He was such a HUNK! I still have a major crush, but I asked him if he would go out with me and he said no. Now we are good friends. I still feel like Jell-O around him though!"
--Leah, 12

"We still liked each other but we both liked him. Then we just tried to like someone else."
--Chantelle, 10

"Me and my friend had a crush on the same guy and I was mad b/c they would always sit by each other b/c they were in the same class. I was kinda mad and I thought he liked her and we both wanted to go out with him, but last year they were going out and this year we were going out. Then she still liked him and he dumped me but then he said he shouldn't have. We still like him and he does not know who he likes so I am not going to pressure on him!"
--Ashton, 10

"My friend and I were both obsessed about the same guy. At first it was just a silly fantasy, then he started liking me. My friend became jealous and upset. I went and talked to her about it. We decided to ask him which of us he liked more. The next day at school, we found that he was really crushing on a totally different girl! My friend and I made up and went to a movie together."
--Kenzie, 13

"I have a crush on a boy. My friend also has a crush on that boy. Whenever I'm around him she always seems to be jealous of me. One time that boy said that he liked me, but my friend made me think that he doesn't like me."
--Stephanie, 11

"Well... I didn't know that my friend liked the same guy as me until I told her I liked him. She said, 'I sorta like him too.' We just talked about him, but we never fought about it. After a while she stopped liking him and I was the only one."
--Sam, 12

"I think my enemy likes the same person I do because she says she used to go out with him in kindergarten. I'm totally in love with him. He tells me he likes me in class and he is so hot."
--Hailey, 12

"Ok! Here's the deal! I got this guy who I have known my WHOLE LIFE!!! All through grade school, kindergarten, till now! I'm in 7th grade! This guy who I think I might like is moving away now. I want to tell him but then again, I'm too scared and can't! All my friends think that we're perfect for each other and they know we both like each other! So what's the problem right? I'm sooo confused! Someone please help me!!!"
--Kristan, 13

"Yes, because my girlfriend was going out with me but then her ex-boyfriend got jealous and got mad and started a fight. I won but he was still mad so my girlfriend stopped him and yelled at him so we could talk it over. I suggested that me and him should let her choose who she wants to be with and she chose me. He was still mad so she told him that they could still be friends and chat but he has to understand that he can't have his way all the time and that was that. He wasn't mad any more and that's my story today. Well got to go, bye!"
