So my best friend that I text, email, express feelings to, and tell very strong secrets to hates my other best friend that I've known since kindergarten. I've only known her for three years. I'm going to make up some names, the one that I've known for three years is ashley and then the other one is lets say called alexis.ashley always complains and says that she steals me away from her.shes really jealouse on how were neighbors and we talk about the neighboorhood boys who are jerks.alexis doesn't know about this.6th grade is only but trouble with friendship... can you help?

You can't help where you live and that you've known Alexis for years and years. Ashley doesn't sound like a very nice best friend.

Part of 6th grade is learning how to balance friendships. This will be a skill you will need for the rest of your life, even when you are 68 and playing bridge at the town's senior center. Perhaps it would be a good idea to limit the amount of information about Alexis (and Alexis with you) that you feed to Ashley.

I had to deal with the same thing. Your friends just need to accept that you have other friends. Have your friends always been like this? Have they even been friends before?
