I am really close to X and she is a year and a half older than me. I know that not all friendships last but in a little over a month Y and I are going to start at college (like the 16-18 of high school) and like typical teenage boys he's obsessed with flirting with loads of girls and I dont care unless it completely distracts him from spending any time with me just because I do want to spend a bit of time with my best friend. It happened for a while when we first started becoming closer friends because he wasn't good at juggling it all and I got unintentionally put completely aside if thats an o.k term to use. Gradually he got a bit better at it but Im expecting a bit of a set back when he is at college mixing with new girls to flirt with because its what normal boys his age do but we both said we dont want our friendship to suffer because of it but he's said that he will find it difficult to find a balance because he's never been good at balancing things in his life. He asked me how important it is to me because he doesn't want to let our friendship down but I was wondering how to let him know that it is really important to me that we find a way to balance it and still make time for us to be best friends and hang out because we both want to but don't know how to make sure we get to??????????? Thankyouu :-) xx

 Hi,
Well your sister or X has nothing to do with your friendship to Y. Obviously you are allowed more than one friend and if he is flrting with other girls making time for them then of course you have the same time to take to your sister.
This question is simple really, if you both want to be friends that badly then you will make the time for each other. A quick message or text hardly take a minute these days, so its not likely to be hard. All you need to say to him is that his friendship is important to you and if he has time to flirt with other girls then he has more than enough time for a conversation with you. Also remember that friends do not neccessarily have to be in 24/7 contact with each other.
