I Don't Want This Guy To Get Between Me And My Friend

[123amelia]

i'm 14 and going into high school in the fall, have known my close friend since before we could walk. We don't live close, but I stay in a house close to her in the summers. This guy named Kieran goes to school with her, but they hardly ever talk, since they aren't in the same friend group. Naturally, she thought he was cute and developed a crush on him, still hardly talking to him. I'm out for the summer now, and he lives like three houses down from me. prior to this year, I had always known he lived there but was always too scared to go introuduce myself. Through a freind, we ended up all hanging out in a group, but the friend taht likes him wasn't there. we hit it off, and now are freinds, and I feel horrible because we hang out sometimes, and it's a lot of fun. For example, my friend Lily (also known since before walking) is visiting, and we met this guy named will who also comes out in the summer who lives up the road. We were riding along in his golf cart with our friedn zach and Kieran was outside and we picked him up. we knocked on the freind that likes him's door, but she was visiting her cousins according to her sister. So we spent like twelve hours (it's a lot, I know) together and it was really fun. He figured out how to pick me up and flip me in the air effortlessly, which was great until I landed on my head in the sand. Later at night, at like ten, it was raining when we were in the golf cart driving home, so we all went in the front under the cover, and I had to sit on his lap so everyone would fit, which was kinda awkward but it's fine. And honestly at this point i don't even know if i like him, but I know our friendship alone would hurt the girl and I don't want to do that. On the other hand, since I don't live here all year I don't know many people aside from her, since zach and will I just met, and it's nice to have people I can hang out with, especially since they live like three houses away. I don't know what to do please help me.

You are young, friendships come and go, special friends may move on or you may work through problems. I would say at your age a friend is worth more than a boy. Talk to her but expect her to to be upset. If he is older than you just be careful

Talk to your friend. If you truly care for each other as much as you say, you should be able to be open and honest with each other.
