Dear Queenie,
There’s this guy I’m good friends with and I like him a lot so I was going to ask him to go out with me, but my sister likes him too and she asked him first even though she knew I was going to and now he likes her a lot.
Queenie, what can I do?—So upset
Dear Upset,
Your sister was wrong to ask this boy out when she knew you were going to, but what is done is done. If you are lucky, their relationship will run its course and then you will still be this boy’s good friend and you will have your chance. On the other hand, if their relationship lasts, you will know that your romance with him was not meant to be.
Wait and see what happens. It will not be easy to do, but in the end, whatever happens, doing so will have been worth it.
