Dear Caroline,

there's this guy I really like but he likes someone else, who happens to be popular (and rude) and just pretends to like him (and of course he can't see that). I really like him, but what am I supposed to do if he doesn't like me? He doesn't know I like him and I'm afraid that if he did it would make our friendship awkward. Please give me advice on what to do.

P.S. You're one of the nicest people in Mystic Fall. :)

Dear October Baby

Don't ever let fear get in the way of your success, and I can tell you from experience that playing the jealousy card is not the way to go. The old me probably would have told you confront this little fake bitch and tell her back off your man. However, I have evolved and matured, and so has my advice. Although maybe she does need a warning? Not anything rude (don't you dare stoop to her level) just remind her that your looking out for your friend and don't want him to get hurt. Personally I wouldn't be too worried, their relationship is not going last, and he'll eventually gain self-respect and realise she's not worth it. Maybe playing the patient game wouldn't be such a bad idea if you really like him.

Sorry I couldn't be more helpful

Sincerely

xoxo Caroline

P.S. You seem like super nice girl yourself. I hope you get your guy !
