At the begining of the school year these two girls *Loren and *Maddie began hanging out in my clique at at school (by the way, when I say "clique" I just mean my group of friends. I don't want anyone to take this the wrong way). Well Loren and Maddie have been best friends since 4th grade but recently Maddie started hanging out with this other girl *Jamie (and I know this sounds bad but Jamie really is one of those people who just aren't that friendly). Jamie apparently doesn't like Loren and now Maddie is treating her really bad as well. Everyone is saying how horrible Maddie is now and they are all talking behind her back when just a few weeks ago we were all so close. I'm still friends with Maddie but it's hard because she honestly didn't have a reason for treating Loren the way she has been. This is a really different behavior of her. She's always been the sweet girl but lately she's been so quiet. I don't understand because she and Loren used to be so close. Should I do something?

No, its not your problem. Im sure they can handle it. Sometimes we want to do something good by helping out, but in cases like these, its better to stay out. If you decide to be their mediator, you will probably get in trouble in one way or another with one of them OR both of them. You will eventually end up tangled in a "she said - you said" web.

If you think that maddie is really treating loren that way and you want them to be friends then you need to tell maddie straight up, with these friend she does not know what she is up against and one of these days maddie might wish she had stayed friends with loren, if loren knows what is good for her she will let maddie know how she feels and she does not think this acceptable. If you do anything then the two girls who started being friends will be at war with each other and then you have more problems then care to deal, just do the best that you can and if they don't want to be friends with each other then you know that you tried, but if you can get them to be friends again then that is great to, just stick it out and see what happens and you there is only so much that you can do.

talk to her and tell her your observations. Or better yet, talk to Loren and see if she feels the same way and then talk to Maddie. She might think she isnt doing anything if Loren is not telling her about the change in her behavior
