What Do I Do If I Like A Guy But My Friends Think He Is A Jerk?
September 4, 2009
Dear Katie,
I have a problem and I really need help. I really like this guy for three years. I have recently told my friends that I like him this year. And I think he likes me too because he always winks and smiles at me when ever we see each other. The only problem is my friends say he is a jerk. But they only see him when he is with the so called “popular” group with all the jocks.
I think he just acts like that when he is around his friends. Because when I talk to him he is so sweet and caring because were like best friends and always hang out. I’m just lost please help.

Dear Elaine,
It’s good to listen to your friends sometimes when they are trying to help you avoid something bad. But in this case it sounds like you know this guy a lot better than your friends. Go with your gut instinct. Deep down do you believe this guy is a good and honest guy like when he is with you?
If so, then tell your friends, “thank you for letting me know what you think about him but I really like him and I have seen a different side. I will take my chances” 
And don’t be mad at them or rude to them for trying to warn you. Be courtious and appriciative to them that they shared their opinion, but at the same time do what you feel is best for YOU. Afterall your friends are not the ones who would be dating him, YOU would be.
