Dear Dish-It, I Like a Guy Who Dated My Best Friend

Dear Dish-It

Dear Dish-It, is here to whisper "ttyl after I've thought about this some more".

Dear Dish-It,

I really like this guy and he likes me too, but he went out with my best friend. He said he wants to go out with me and I want to go out with him, but I don't know what to do. I need help!

Dear Amy_03,

Did you like this boy before or after he started seeing your BFF? Cuz here's the deal - it's sketchy if you wanna hook up with her ex. Actually, it's always sketchy where a friend and a boy are involved in the same problem. Talk to your girl. If they're done, some time has passed and she's cool with the idea of her ex and you together, then you've got the green light. But don't be surprised if she can't deal. It's her right. Remember, boys will come and go, but you will only have a few really good friends in life. So value her over him.

So, ya gotta burnin' question? Need some love directions? Thinkin' 'bout stuff like depression, sex,how ya feel 'bout YOURSELF (that's called "self-esteem"), boyfriends, girlfriends, losin' old friends, bullyin' or peer pressure, but too scared to ask the parents? Don't be scared to Dish-It here. Send all of your questions to deardish@kidzworld.com. But 'member, if ya hang out in Chat with other Kidzworld members who know ya by your 'username', ya might wanna use a secret nickname when ya write in. That way no one'll ever know it's you. And, just in case ya don't know, Dish-It gets a lotta letters everyday, and she can't answer 'em all. So keep checkin' the column cuz she's prob'ly answerin' somethin' very similar to your question while you're out doin' somethin' else. K? And Thanks! Ya keep her outta trouble. Oh! And if ya've got words of wisdom you wanna share,We'll dish 'em up, too.
