My Friend is Being Sooo Jealous!

I have this good friend of mine who likes every guy with a pulse. Two of them are some of my crushes too. When we hung out the other day she got jealous and told me I wasn't a good friend and I was a horrible person. She said I have no right to like them because she does. But they like me back (right now we're just friends though). It's not like she owns them. We're just friends hanging out, having fun. Does she have the right to tell me these things? - Alicia, 14, New York

"Hey, Alicia!'" One of the things you're going to learn as you get older is that not
everyone has the same sense of right and wrong that you do.

There's nothing wrong with having mutual guy friends. Guys sometimes make the best friends. Your friend probably just got jealous of the attention you were getting from these guys. What your friend needs to realize is that by being selective about who you date makes you hard to obtain. Don't you always want what you can't have? So do the guys. Plus it is always better to be wanted, than to want.

Have fun, good luck, and ignore your friend's jealous comments.
