Should I talk to my "best friend" again?
OK, me and this girl (lets just use the name Emma even thought that not her real name) have been best friends ever since 3rd grade. We are now 8th grade and going through some rough times. There is this guy that "Emma" dated for 2 weeks in the beginning of August, and than broke up with him. He dated many other girls after. This guy asked me out in September, and I said yes. We are still going out now (going on to 3 mouths) and were very interested in each other and don't want to break up at all anytime soon. But continuing on, I know that "Emma" still likes him. When "Emma" found out about us dating she told me that she felt "betrayed" by my choice of dating him, and she didn't want to talk to me or be my best friend ever again. Well "Emma's" words stuck with her, and we haven't talked at all since than. I had to change all different groups, cause she "kicked me out of my old group" and they spread A LOT of rumors about me through out the school. The school got involved and put a end to it. I'm now realizing how much I miss "Emma" as a friend, and miss all our good times. This new Trimester me & this guy have art class together, but "Emma" is in it too.There is also a friend of mine named "Sam" who is friends with me and "Emma" but always sits with "Emma" during art. "Sam" and I talk a lot during art. Do you think I should try to talk to "Emma" too? Or should I stay clear of her? I do not want to break up with my boyfriend so don't say anything with that. Thanks for your advice!
