    I feel like a terrible person because I get jealous when my best guy friend hangs out with this other girl. I love that he has other friends but I still get jealous whenever he hangs out with her. Am I a bad person for thinking this?

    Mood : Guilty
    • @prettyangel197 No, it can happen, what matters is what you do with this feeling, if you act on it and influence their life in a negative way, it would be a problem. You can also work in the other direction and branch out to other people/groups/activities so your mind is busy with other things, and you’ll feel less pained by what your friends are doing.

    • Jealousy is just a feeling, an emotion. You don’t have to be driven by them. If he is a heterosexual guy, and you and him aren’t involved, he will eventually spend a lot of time with one girl, and the relationship will become fairly exclusive. You won’t necessarily lose him as a friend, but he will spend a lot of time with her. If that bothers you, you need to invest your friendship energy in a more available source.

    • @prettyangel197 it can happen, but is it truly a friendship or do you have more feelings for him? Either way jealousy can happen but my advice is to control it. Jealousy in the future can hurt you and your friendship, he doesn’t ”belong” to you , he has the right to have any friends you know? Now again if this is coming out because you’re finding out you like him, get him aside and tell him. Jealousy shouldn’t happen during long term, always destroys relationships.
      Best of luck

    • Try to not be jealous of him @prettyangel197, find ways to make your friendship even more stronger, like @marikofujimoto says, if you have feelings for him, I would talk to him and tell him how you feel, stick by each other and always be there to support him, hope things work out, I’m always here if you need to chat or vent, feel free to inbox me anytime, stay strong, you are never alone :) (hugs)

    • I do have feelings for him. I used to be friends with the girl that he’s hanging out with so it feels weird. I’m trying really hard not to be jealous
