20. Julia, 19 : I’m going out with a
really nice guy. He says he loves
me, and he even wants us to get
married. The problem is, I don’t
love him. I’m in love with his best
friend and it’s driving me crazy. I
dream about him all the time and
often cry myself to sleep. I’ve
tried to find out how he feels, but
he’s in a difficult position too. My
friends say I should stop seeing
my boyfriend .But, if I can’t have
the boy I love; surely he is the
next best things?

21. Barry, 21 : I’ve got a great
girlfriend and we’ve been
together for about six months. It’s
all been quite serious but now I’m
not so sure. You see, I saw my exgirlfriend again at a party last
Saturday and I think she feels we
made a big mistake and that she
really wants us to start going out
together again. I think I feel the
same. What do I do? How do I
tell my present girlfriend that I
think we should break up?

22. Tony, 21 : My best friend and
his girlfriend have been
together for some time, but
she keeps flirting with me
and I don’t know if he
realizes or not. Should I tell
him? I don’t really fancy
her, but I really like his exgirlfriend. Do you think he
would mind if I asked her
out? He’s an old friend and I
don’t want to upset him.

23. Sharon, 19 : I met an old
boyfriend the other day and
we agreed we wanted to stay
friends, although I don’t want
to go out with him again.
We’d like to have a drink
together one evening. Should
we tell his present girlfriend
or is it better that she doesn’t
know? After all, it will be
completely innocent.

24. Steve, 20 : I have known the girl
next door for a long time. She’s
going out with someone who is
well-known for fancying
everyone in sight. The trouble
is, she doesn’t realize this. I
happen to think he’s seeing
someone else, and I don’t know
whether to tell or not. It’s made
more complicated by the fact
that after all years as childhood
friends, I think I’m falling in love
with her, what should I do?
Should I tell her how I feel?

25. Check your understanding
- Does Steve fancy his friend’s
girlfriend?
- Who did Barry see at a party on
last Saturday?
- What is Sharon’s problem?
