He is very sweet and we have a lot in common. My friend decided to see what the fuss was about and downloaded the same app. When my phone broke my friend started talking to him and now they added each other on Facebook and Skype, and instead of talking on the app they talk on Skype or Facebook.What do I do? I know my friend isn't interested in dating him but my boyfriend never talks to me now. And don't say my friend is a bad person because she is trying to get him to start talking to me. Thank you for your advice in advance.

Eh, throw him back in the pond and find someone who isn't too busy looking for "greener" grass.
I agree with Auntie BimBim, he sounds like a magpie... Uh SHINY STUFF.. what were we talking about?

Chick, it sounds like he didn't have a long attention span and when you friend put the new shiny thing (her and skype) in front of him that was that! His`attention has been diverted.
As for your friend, she liked what you had and took the oppoturnity to muscle in when your phone broke. Yes, she may be telling him to talk with you, but she hasn't stopped talking to him has she, so that his attention will be back on you.
I am not going to say your friend is a bad person, but I will say once you stop wanting this boy to talk to you and find something or someone else to occupy your mind her conversations with your ex boyfriend will lessen.
When you do find an interest elsewhere, hold a little information back, and don't give her the opportunity to 'help' you again.

Sounds like he's lost interest in you. If he was truly interested, you wouldn't need your friend to convince him you're important. Let him go and stick to dating in person for a while.
