writes:Hi how do I tell my friend she's a little conceited? Or am I overreacting?She's one of my best friend's. We're both 18 and have both had our fair share with guys. I just mean like being at the texting stage and dating, that kind of stuff. I'm not a virgin but she still is. I guess you could say I'm taking a break from guys right now. I mean I would still like a boyfriend sometime soon but I'm not forcing anything, they can come to me if they want, and if not, I'm just enjoying my own space for a while. Her on the other hand, it's like she's becoming obsessed with finding someone. I mean I get why guys want her she's naturally pretty, funny etc, but it's like she knows it, although she acts surprised when a guy shows interest. She'll give her Snapchat or number to any guy who asks, even if she doesn't like them. She'll respond to their messages and everything even though she doesn't like them. This sounds bad but she will happily message a guy that she doesn't find attractive (knowing she won't date them) but as soon as they want to meet up for a date she suddenly won't talk to them anymore. She's leading them on and I don't like to see it, since I wouldn't like it if I was in that position with a guy. She'll pop up to them when she's bored "just because" and then will end the conversation when she has better things to do. I feel bad for the guys because in some cases I could tell that the guys really liked her and she just led them on. Am I overreacting? Should I just leave her be?

 It appears that she needs the attention, maybe she isn't as confident as you think she is, and maybe she is nervous about actually dating someone and it leading to her loosing her virginity so she is hiding behind her phone. Either way it is not your place to tell her she is behaving right or wrong. If you don't like what she does then either ignore it or end the friendship.

 Sorry to say but your friend is a little conceited leading guys on. It seems like she needs validation and attention. I think if you try to say something about her behavior she would be furious with you for attacking her character and end the friendship.
Since you guys are best friends, I would try to overlook this trait of hers. After all, I'm sure those boys will find other girls, it's no big loss to them.
Maybe you should come off your break.
