my boyfriend J is a junior in sr. high school and i have a close guy friend who's like my younger brother, K, who is a sophomore at my school (my age).
whenever anything happens at school that involves K and i being friends, like just how we got in trouble today with the algebra teacher for listening to music, J gets irritated when i tell him. it's a habit of ours to just let each other know what goes on at school. J tells me that K always acts immature and like a pansy. today when we spoke, he told me he didn't know any other juniors who liked him, and the fact that i am close friends with K bothers him. he said that we flirted with each other without any bad intentions, and that bothers him as well. personally, i don't think i do anything like that. i used to be kind of uptight about complimenting my guy friends, but i've loosened up lately and laughed more with them. i honestly dont' think i am a flirt... i try to treat all my friends the same way, except i give J more attention. this conflict between J and K has gone on for a while. i haven't done anything to prevent it, because they usually don't even talk, but he disapproves of how close K and i are. K doesn't have a low opinion of J, openly. however, J has not tried to convince me to stop being close friends with K. J only lets me know he dislikes him and leaves it at that. advice would be great. |

Well, he has every right to tell you that he doesn't like the kid and I really respect him for not telling you to cut your friendship with K, b/c that'd be gay.
I'd just try to keep things status quo... but try be more observant of how you act with other guys, particularly K. A lot of times, we don't notice when we flirt. WE don't see it as flirting, but that doesn't mean other people don't see it as flirting... so... i think you should just be more aware of what you do and say. I don't think it's that big of a deal. Everybody has people they don't like... it doesn't sound like it's been a huge problem so far, so I wouldn't worry about it. |
