If she gathers the courage to tell me how she feels towards me, how will I tell her it's her close friend I am actually interested in?

Well you see, there's this girl I like. We were very good friends. We'd always chat until midnight, and we'd always go out together with our other friends. Then one day, she became cold to me. I don't think she knows that I like her or anything, so I don't know why. (Friend A)

I have another friend. She's CLOSE friends with Friend A. We're close friends too but, the problem is, she likes me, but she doesn't know that I know about that. But she's assuming that I have some affection for Friend A. (Friend B)

These past few days, Friend A has been really cold to me, and I assume that it has something to do with Friend B or something. I don't know. I might be breaking friendships already without my knowledge. I hope not. What I've noticed is she's also cold to Friend B. But if ever Friend B gains the courage to tell me that she likes me, how do I tell her that I like someone else, and it's her very close friend, Friend A?

What should I do? I'm so much confused.

Hey randomlovestruck,

Remember, their close friends. If I'm bad to Friend B, then eventually she'll pass that anger to Friend A.

ok this is spooky, i was going through the EXACT same problem a few months ago. here's wot i did, i'm not proud of it but it worked:

ok this is going to sound really horrible but first of all uv got to be quite horrible to the girl (girl b), i no its a really bad thing to do but ultimatly its the best thing for both of u. if the girl hates u so wot, it lets her get on with her life and in the end is the best thing for her.

if ur too good a person, which i'm ashamed to say i'm not, then let her down gently but don't wotever u do mention the other girl.

Maybe if ur lucky, the reason girl A is being cold with girl B is because girl B told girl A she likes you and girl A is annoyed coz she likes u too.

But to be honest i cant help u with the whole girl A situation coz i've not solved my own girl A problem. If i do find a way to b happy with friend A i'll let u know how i did it. good luck.

hmm well, that's quite a situation.

i guess if i were you, i wouldnt share with friend B that you like friend A, just give another excuse, like you're not quite ready or you could even say you may like someone else and are really unsure as of now.

just, if you do anything, don't be forward about your liking friend A. it's a really fragile situation. i've had this happen to me before, as one of my good friends liked me and i got quite put off by his forwardness and felt like our friendship was in ruins.

good luck !
