Okay, hypothetically, if you and your good friend fall in love with the same girl; and that girl also attracted to your friend. Under the circumstance of fair competition, you knew that you are more likely to lose to your friend. Would that affect your friendship? Would you be jealous to see your friend always been with that girl you like? Or would you be cool with that, because she is not the only girl exist in this world; you might be able to find a better one in the near future.

If the girl is attracted to my friend and not me, I'd give up and keep the friendship The girl made her choice so why mess with things?

Clorissa my dear, have you got two young men fighting over you at last, oh that is so nice for you dear. It will really give your low self esteem a boost but you must ensure you are kind to each of them, and remember, the one who does not dress as well may have more money in the bank which as we have discussed before is very important for you as you do worry so about money. So be very nice to both of them until you have checked out their full credentials.

yes, it will affect your friendship. i had that same experience with my friend and the girl chose me instead of my friend. Our friendship was never the same again after that incident. and the sad thing about this, my relationship with the girl only lasted for a few months... in effect, i lost the girl and my friend for more than ten years slowly drifted away.

I can't deny that I'll be jealous and it's going to affect my relationship with my good friend. Nevertheless, once I've "regained consciousness", I'd be his friend again. This situation had actually happened to me when I was a teenager. The point is, as humans, we can't help being jealous but it shouldn't last forever. We need to stop at some point, and think whether our jealousy is good for our friendship. What is even more important is, we have to learn to let go. Cheers.
