I have feelings for a guy but being intimidated by another girl

OK heres the story Im getting really close with this guy at my college hes a really nice guy and everything was going great. However theres another girl at college who has a bit of a thing for him, he doesnt have any feelings for her but she has taken a dislike to me (for obvious reasons) and i feel very threatened by her she has a reputation as a very tough kind of girl and while I really like the guy Im seeing I don't want her jealousy to cause a fight between us (i would lose lol) I know to some this problem may be quite trivial but any suggestions as to what I could do????:confused:

Stuff her I say. If you like him and he likes you there's nothing some bully can do about that. And I doubt she'd kick your ass. She's just jealous that you're with the hot guy and she has no one. Don't worry about her.

well does this guy like you in the same way back? .....if so then go for it and just ignore her, she'll get over it, shes probably not jealouse cus you like this goy but probably jealous of you hence y she doesnt like you

Just don't let this girl bully you out of talking to this guy.

Tell him, then maybe he can talk to her and get her to back off. :smile:

Me too. There's a godawful BITCH! (there, that feels better) in my halls who's fancied my boyfriend since day one and keeps flirting with him and jumping on him and stuff, even though he totally blanks her every time she does it (as much as that's possible with a whooping moron on your back).

Grrrrr, I HATE HER!!!!

But back to your problem...definitely have a word with him and make sure he knows you're pissed off. Have a moan with him about her being a pain in the bum, that always makes me feel better. :biggrin:

Glad to help :wink: Good luck, I'm sure it'll be fine!

Just spoke to him yesterday, he basically said he wasn't aware that her behaviour bothered me that much, that shes just a very immature girl and that he'd make everything clear to her and tell her to back off so makes me feel a lot better because he aslo said he wouldn't go near her:smile:

Excellent :biggrin: Good for you - glad everything's worked out fine.

Okay, instead of starting a new thread, this is kinda on the same lines. I'm in a bit of a problem, there's this guy I like, and we get on great, I know he likes me. However I think he likes this other girl too, maybe more than me. She's a friend of mine, has a boyfriend, and is not interested in him in that way.
Should I approach him, or is it a futile exercise?
Anyone else ever in this situation?

Reply 15

Approach him, or you'll kick yourself for not at least trying :smile:

Got to be worth a shot if you know he likes you!

Reply 16

^ oh that's horrible :frown:

however, you say you THINK he likes her too... sometimes, boys can be weird like that. they seem as though they fancy your best friend when in actual fact it's you they're digging...

surely the fact that she has a boyfriend must put him off a little? although, no, i'm not that naive lol. i know some people still go for the taken.

Reply 17

Yeah, but can a relationship even develop if he's closer to her than he is to me?

Reply 18

You know when you are going out with someone, and they have a really close friend of the opposite sex....if anything were to happen it feels as if it would be like that....is that healthy?

Reply 19

if you get to know each other more, there's more chance you two will become closer. at the moment, he'll just keep getting closer to whoever else whilst you'll be faffing around

just go for it
