Some of the options, if you chose them, you can't be considered a friend.

the most likely scenario in manga are option number 4 and 5.

My friend didn't know I we liked the same guy, so I lead her to believe I was more interested in the guy's best friend. I would constantly talk about all of his good points in front of her, in an attempt to convince her to forget her interest in the first guy. My plan worked, but a bit too well. In all of my effort to convince her I managed to convince myself as well, and we both ended up liking the same guy again.

What if your best friend is a hot bisexual who wants to do threesome, and let's also assume the other girl is willing to try it out. Still no?
» x0mbiec0rp on November 18th, 2012, 9:05pm
Still no. The jealousy!

(Plus the whole three-party option which I won't get into because we are PG-13 Oh, and the kill your friend suggestion was not without merit.)
I said ignore your feelings and support your friend because having a relationship is just a big responsibility. *awhoooooo* Lone wolf howl...
Oh, and an another option, you hate everyone so the the situation of you liking someone would never come up. (This poll was more fun than I thought at first blush.)
(haha, you guys are my new family. happy don't kill a turkey day. let's all eat at differnet houses.)

i will not EVER put my cock in some hole where another have just been playing around
thats just so unapealing
thats way worse than actually having anal sex
i just dont like the idea of putting my precious plaything in someones SHIThole or being part of some other mans cumfest
especially if its a close friend
thats like having sex with ur aunt
sure its fun right at the moment
on big family dinners,christmas ASO it will be very VERY uncomfortable
unless ur mentaly ill and have no shame whatsoever
then its fine i guess
Do nothing and see how things work out
» amaranthine on November 18th, 2012, 9:14pm
As for my poll answer, I picked the last option. I just can't see it happening and that's the most passive action lol
» RattixEmpire on November 20th, 2012, 6:33am
A proper, relationship relies on mutual true, respect and understanding in the other person. I would not give up the relationship I have with my best friend, for a guy who I may never come to really truly trust, respect and understand. If I did trust, respect and understand him, then I would respect his decision on who to go out with. If I am going to waste my time with my friend, another girl who is far less worthy than my friend may snatch him away.

Basically, it's keeping our friendship while undermining each other. It's quite fun, except the cases of the angry boyfriend. Obviously, we would join forces to fight and all get thrown out. Being bounced by a few sweaty, fat retards is lame and humiliating.
Either way, if you really like the person, fight for it. Don't be all beta and let things just happen. Fuck the friend, as friends come and go. Try your damnedest and if you fail, oh well. Try again on the next person you're attracted to. If your friend is too, then compete for the girl. You may find the love of your life that's worth more than any friendship. That's my opinion.
» BlackOrion on November 20th, 2012, 1:17pm
I'm pretty sure the saying goes the other way around, What if i had know the guy all my life and i just met some random girl that i got a shot on but he has a big crush on her? If it makes me beta to step back, then call me what you want, i love my friends, other wise we wouldn't be friends.
If your friend and you had fun that way then that is terrific, but that doesn't mind that is the solution for everybody.

Well, it's relevance to manga be damned, the poll reeks of a tween-pop magazine...
Wouldn't that be closer to 'Keep your friendship and fight fairly'? I interpret "do nothing" as 'you' are the only one who's aware of the situation, yet decide not to confront or confide in your friend about it, and see how things play out. I could be wrong, though.
In your scenario, you make it sound like you have no real feelings on the matter. Naturally, you stand aside if you don't really care, but that's not quite what the poll asks. I believe the poll asks what you would do in a love triangle, where your friend and you are in love.
» flowinmyboat on November 20th, 2012, 2:57pm
I guess the most non-conflict answer suits me best, so the last one.
» Lorska on November 22nd, 2012, 1:44pm
why not try and fight it fairly? Waiting is just a waste of time anyway, so you can as well do your best... One should be able to get over some unrequited love and a friend should be able to be happy for his/her (best) friend...
But I guess just waiting is the way to go for people who have enough time to lose...

Of course in the case of forums where my reply doesn't show up right underneath the parent post, one post with the relevant quotes would be the most logical way.
By the way, I am reading this from the comments section directly in the poll (or in threaded view).
If it annoyed you sorry 'bout that.

So yeah, if there's a guy my friend likes, I'll cheer her on ^-^.
