The Boy Friend (friend who is a boy)

Yep, totally OK.

Later,

Whether you like him or not, it's cool to just hang out or talk on the phone anyway. I mean, you guys are still friends, right?

Later,

Me too! I'm always talking to Dillon in the hallway, and people think we're like flirting. Sooooo not the case!

Later,

Nope! No boyfriend for me, and I'm totally happy with that for now.

Later,

LOL, I love your girl-power 'tude! Rock on.

Later,

I agree 100%. People just hear whatever they want to hear. Whatever, I try not to let it bother and just keep doing my thing!

Later,

Yeah, for real, why do people have to tease other people? I think it's because they just don't have anything better to do. Don't worry about it, SweetPenguin_4 - just be friends with whoever you want!

Later,

Yeah, totally weird. I'm so not ready for a boyfriend yet!

Later,

Just forget those people. Don't let what they say bother you. If you and your guy friend are happy, that's all that matters, right?

Later,

Hey BSGgirly19. Maybe he really was grounded! If you guys have been buds since you were little, give him the benefit of the doubt. Try asking him to hang out again. If he still isn't into it, then let him know how much his friendship means to you. But in the end, who knows what boys are thinking?

Later,

Yep, totally agree.

Later,

Sounds like Nick and Charlotte!

Later,

Even if they aren't huge fans of your other friends, that's no reason for them to stop hanging out with YOU. Ask those guys what's up with the weird way they're acting.

Later,

I'm with you all the way, WorldWideRisingStar. Sometimes I can be TOO blunt, but then sometimes you just gotta tell it like is!

Later,

Say what? You can TOTALLY be friends with him. Don't let what other people say make you lose an awesome friendship!

Later,

Wuzzup twinlakesgal? If you want to hang out with this guy as a friend, like those old shoe commercials say: Just do it! You can't control what other people think, so don't even worry about it. Keep being friends with this guy and don't what other people say bother you.

Later,

Hey royce! Way to take a stand, dude! Stick by what you think is right about boys (and everything else, by the way!), and don't let what other people think make you do stuff you don't want to do. That's Avery Madden style!

Later,

Yep, boys can be way confusing. That's why I put all my energy into sports and stuff, and let all that boy drama work itself out.

Later,

Hey rentluver1996. He's being totally not fair to you, just talking to you about your friend. I'd prob just tell him to shape up and start talking to my other friends more!

Later,

Yeah, def. You should play with whoever you want at recess!

Later,

Skateboarding? TOTALLY cool!

Later,

Hey spellbee12! Soccer rocks, but you shouldn't pretend to be interested in something just because some guy likes it! If you really want to get into soccer for yourself, the best way is to get out there and play. Get some of your buds to play with you at recess or after school. I bet you'll totally love it!

Later,

You really can't change somebody else's feelings. I would just focus on your other friends until he starts acting less weird.

Later,

Whatever you do, don't let it ruin your friendship! Buds are way more important than boys. Unless those boys ARE your buds, in which case they're important too!

Later,

He talks about you behind your back? SO not something a real friend would do! This guy sounds really hard to figure out. Way too much drama!

Later,

Sooooo true! I have tons of guy friends and I get really annoyed when people put them down without even knowing them.

Later,

You should prob just brush it off when your friends say stuff like that. I mean, you know you don't like him, so who cares what other people say?

Later,

Hi ivynow741,

The first thing you should do is read Book 10 Just Kidding. I had something happen that was so mean. Sometimes friends make mistakes cause they want to be in the cool crowd sometimes they just don't end up being your friend in the end.
See what happened to me in Just Kidding. Hope it helps!

Adios,

Isabel

Hey dude! Friends who embarrass you on purpose? So not cool. You should try making friends with some of the other kids at your new school. In the meantime, you might want to keep your crushes to yourself for awhile--until your friends prove they can be trusted.

Later,

That's so not cool. Dude, you should def talk to your friend about what's really going on, and stop those rumors before they start!

Later,

I sooo know what you mean. That is totally annoying! I mean, girls and boys can def just be friends. Whatev. I keep hanging out with my boy friends no matter what other people say. I mean, they're MY friends, right?

Later,

You mean LIKE like? Dude, who has time to worry about LIKE liking a boy when there are so many boys who I like as friends?
