I Feel Left Out

[Majick]

Just let your friend have fun.

Believe me, being jealous and freaking out will only make it worse.

I have a friend that I've known since we were in 2nd grade (we'll call her C).  In high school I made another best friend (we'll call her M), and I spent more time with M than with C.  After a while, C started calling at all hours of the day/night, possessively.  She hated that I had a new friend and wasn't spending all my time with her anymore.  It made me mad, and made me want to spend Less time with her.

Even as we got older, she never got over it, C and M were never very good friends, even to this day C and M barely talk, and try to avoid each other if possible, although C is making more of an effort to get to know and be nice to M ... and that's 10 years later.  Maybe you should try getting to know your friend's new friend.  Next time you get them on the phone, or send them an email, mention you're feeling left out and that you'd like to have a chance to get to know this new friend too.  That there should be no reason why the 3 of you can't hang out together.

But don't call/email obsessively, that will only make it worse, trust me.  Having been in your friends position, it's just because they are new and it's different.  It's always nice to have something new, and to get to know this person.  It's exciting and nice to have a change of face and personality; but that doesn't mean they don't want to be your friend anymore.  Maybe give them some space/time to just be the two of them, before asking if you can join them.

I hope this helps :3
