text: First off - this girl is NOT YOUR FRIEND.  OK?  She's on some kind of power trip with you because you let her get away with it.  When she tells you that you can't go out with someone because she likes them, does she actually go out with the guy - ever?  I'm betting she doesn't.  She just doesn't want you to go out with him.  Maybe she's afraid that if you start going with someone then you won't have time for her.  Are you her only friend?  Don't let her do this to you.  If you like a guy and he seems interested in you - go out with him.  Don't let her dictate to you.  If you start out now letting other people run your life it will become a habit and you will be miserable.
