Same Guy

Problem:
I like the same guy as my Best Friend. She's been my best friend for a while now and i don't want to lose our friendship. The thing is this guy is really cool and i really like him. What should i do? I like my friend but I also really like this guy.
HELP!!!!!

Confuzzled Person

My Ideas:
1. You stop liking the guy. Never let a guy harm your friendship.
2. Tell your friend how you feel. Also tell her that you won't mind if her and this guy go out as long as she doesn't mind if its the same for you.
3. Decide which is more important, a boy who you'll only sit at lunch with for 2 weeks or a friend who will be there for you when you and him break up? Always choose friends over a guy.(unless you to have been going out forever). Friends can talk to you about things that a guy will never understand.
4. If you really like this guy decide how good of a friend this friend is. Should you go out with this guy? If the friend was a good friend though she would support you in whatever you do. She has everyright to get upset but give her time, if she's a true friend she'll end up being happy for you.

See if you have any ideas on how to help, in case this problem ever occurs to you or your friends!
