Three's a Crowd

You and your bestie have been friends forever but her other BFF doesn’t allow you to have any alone time with her. She is always butting into conversations, and taking you away from your BFF.  You’re totally cool with her having other friends, but you just need some alone time together.


My BFF and I have always been two peas in a pod. In school, we always sat together and were partners on trips and on projects. Now, she has another best friend. These days she doesn't really talk to me much because of her other BFF.


Every time I try to talk to her, her other friend keeps interrupting us and I don't have any time to talk to her.  She listens to my private conversations with her and wants everything I have and more. She wants my BFF all to herself.  Every time I try to talk to her about the problem she of course comes in and ruins it.  I have no issue of my best friend having other friends, but it'll be cool if once in a while I get to talk to her alone!


BFF Fix-it: Sounds like your BFF needs to set her schedule straight. Seems like her bestie is jealous of you and wants to have same bond you and your BFF have.  Your friend should realize that she needs to be able to hang out with both of you equally. If she still wants to be your BFF, she will want to make time to talk to you and hang out with you. Try asking her to come over for a sleepover, or go to the mall, without her other BFF.  Tell her you need some alone time together to catch up.
