So I kind of like this guy and he is one grade older than me (9th and 10th grade) but one my good friends is like OBSESSED with him... idk what to do cause she is like a girble ("girl bible") following person. I don't want to tell her because then she will be really mad at me but I don't want to hold it in either... I have no idea what to do. Help?

In this situation there is not much you can do. If you tell her it will hurt her, if you don't it will hurt you. So pick which you think is right.

You could gradually keep agreeing with her and giving little clues that you could feel the same way. If she says 'back off, he's mine' then just laugh and say 'he isn't anybody's; he gets to choose, and it might be no one, or someone else entirely.'

She could do that, but that might ruin their relationshil. I've seen it happen.

Does the boy like either one of you?
This may not even be a problem.

KidoftheWise, I tend to agree with you that this is a no win situation in general.
I'm from a generation of girls that wasn't so aggressive about boys. I have a feeling that you are more in tune.
