I have these two friends. And they're fighting over something thats REALLY stupid. One of my friends, lets call her friend A has a guy friend and he's like an older brother to her. But Friend B thinks that friend A likes him in a different way and now they're fighting over it. Friend B is constantly picking on friend A about her brother/ sister relationship with the guy. And Friend A is getting sick of it. If any one gets what I just said I would like some help on how to solve this problem.

Well, I hate to say this, but they need to grow up. Fighting over a guy btw friends are totally stupid. Who knows the guy doesn't have any feelings towards both of them.. What a waste of years of friendship!

I would say stay out of it. These two dont sound to much like adults. Friend A has her own business, Friend B should just stay out of it. What A wants from this friend/more than friend relationship is strickly up to her. It sounds as if B want to get in on the "friend" action as well. As for you I would brush it off. True friends argue and work things out. If the friendship is true B would let A do as she wishes and stop the childishness of joking about it. A should let the jokes go. I believe you said it best when you called it stupid. So just let them do what they are doing if they come to you tell them that you dont want any part in this childish bull. Let them know that they are both acting out and it shouldnt matter who wants to be whos companion in the romantic sense. Good luck with this.

Well the friend with the brother/sister thing needs to be the big one and step up to the plate and set s*** straight. If friend B still thinks its something more, then oh-well. You and friend A really knows whats going on, Let friend B be the one to sit and feel really stupid.

In Johari window, you are on the outside looking in. You can give both of them sound & rational advice cuz you're not in the problem. Fights over trivial & petty things are normal in friendship. Be an Ambassadress of Peace to them. They musn't make a big deal out of it to to end their friendship. Good luck!!!

I get what you're saying but sadly there is no way for you to fix that (not that fixing it is terribly complicated, it just doesn't fall to you to do that). It's incumbent on the friends themselves to realize the value of their own friendships and not risk them unnecessarily on stupid stuff.

your friends really just sound bored. they need to find something else to do and something else to talk about. friend B also sounds to like this fake brother that friend A has.

Friend A & B need to sit down and talk about this issue like adults.If they can't do that on their own then you need to sit them down as their friend and tell friend B to cope wit it or stick it!
