My best friend just broke up with a steady boyfriend of nearly a year when the chemistry vanished and he told her he "just couldn't see things working out". This is very well and they are still close friends but my Best friend is now flirtingl like HELL with my boyfriend and althouigh he submisses it and says he hasn't noticed it (and she does as well, acting really surprised and confused if i mention it)but i really think he has and with my friend being the pretty charmer she is i could easily see her taking him away from me. What can i do to stop this? Thankyou

My daughter is having the same problem with a "friend" of hers. She has met a really nice boy and they get along great but her one friend (and possibly two), who never noticed him before, are now interrupting their conversations and saying unkind things to her and about her in front of him. For example, she took him a little apple pie for his lunch and her "friend" said, "oh it might be poisoned". She totally ruined a very tender moment between the two of them. I told my daughter to just let it go and that if her relationship with the boy is meant to be, no one will be able to break them apart. It is very disappointing to see young women acting so predatory. Equality may not be all it's cracked up to be.

I Am Having This Same Problem, I Go Out With A Boy Who I Have Liked For About A Year And My Best Friend Recently Started Seeing His Best Friend. We All Met Up And Even Though She Was With His Best Friend She Was All Over Him, And At One Point She Even Went Up To Him And Put Her Arms Around Him From Behind. Her Boyfriend Was Getting Really Annoyed With Her, Aswell As I Was. I Am Going To Try Talking To Her Next Time She Does It, Or Maybe Just Keep Her Away From Him

Much Luck & Love x

I know how you feel! I had the same problem with one of my bf's. We both went to the same school and hung out in the same group and I got the feeling that a lot of the girls in my group were flirting with him. It drove me crazzyyyyyyyyy! I became so jealous. But i never did anything about it. I really regret that. You should talk to your friend again and instead of saying 'i feel like your flirting with my bf' tell her exatly what it is that she does that makes u think shes flirting and give her clean examples. Because if she truly doesnt intend to flirt, she woudlnt know what your talking about and would continue doing what is upseting you. So say something like 'when you become all touchy feely with my bf like on sat, you kept leaning forward and touching his arm, that made me feel really hurt.' etc....

good luck and I hope you get it all worked out :)

Toria agony auntYou need to talk to your friend again, tell her your not being paranoid and she is totally flirting with him and it's upsetting you, a good friend (even one that thinks they ain't doing anything) will see your suffering because of this and keep her ways towards your boyfriend down.

As a last option don't spent time with them both at the same time that way they won't be together to have her flirting with him.

Good luck :o)
