We talked all the time and we basically hung out all the time and became best friends but we acted like sisters because we trusted eachother with everything.I made a few of my old friends so mad because I started hanging out with my new friend.Then maybe 2 or 3 months after we became friends this other girl started hanging out with us because her and her best friend had issues to where they weren't talking anymore. Anyway so I don't like this other girl. I never have and probably never will.So my best friend says she tells me everything and tells me more than the other girl. But I don't know because they always are talking when she's around and its just me being quiet by myself.My best friend knows I don't like the other girl. The other girl doesn't say one word to me, EVER! My question is what should I do? I feel jealous by how much they talk and I don't know how to get over this feeling.(sorry for my ranting) I just need some help.

There was a girl who hung around with me and my best friend, I didn't particularly like her, and she definitely didn't like me, but she was friends with my best friend so I was polite when needed. This other girl was jealous and always worried about what we talked about together. Fast forward to many years later, and my best friend and I are still friends and this other girl has disappeared from our lives. The thing is if you can just accept the fact that she can be friends with whomever she wants to and respect that about her, you will show that your a true friend, if this other girl continues to just ignore you, your best friend will see that. Try not to be jealous because it doesn't make the situation any easier. Just focus on the friendship you and your best friend share together, she will value that. Good Luck.
