Friend triangle?

I have 2 friends on MSN. I will call them Erene and Laura for the purpose of the exercise.
(and to hide their real names)


Anyways, I met Laura on MSN ages ago. She is nice and I like talking to her and have met her IRL on occasions. Then there is Erene. Erene I don't like much at all. I met her somewhere and she is a real :banghead3 and I just talk to her to annoy her. Surprised she hasn't blocked me yet. I just laugh at her.
Problem is, Laura invited me to go and play billiards. So I went. And then she shocked me.
"Oh I asked Erene to come too."

.......

I do not particularly like Erene, but Laura gets upset and tells me to try and be friends with her. "She is nice" Laura says, but I don't think so. I can't stand Erene. REALLY.

Do I TRY to be her friend? Or do I ignore Erene? It makes Laura a bit angry that me and Erene do not get along. what do I do?

Hey Soultype..come closer to the screen. Just a little closer I need to swat you. All week long you tell us you can't keep a womans attention if your life depended on it and here you are on a double......You are killing me over there!! I am happy for your social occassion and you had best be twice as nice as you think is humanly possibe with Erene and have a great time. You are overdue for that.

I say use this opportunity to do some recon. Hanging out w/ chicks can help you understand them a bit more and who knows they may have a cute friend they can hook you up w/:cool:

Jewscout brings up a really really good point. Just like one networks for employment people can network for dating. I would say that alot of the woman I have dated in my adult life I met from friends cause I have a lot of plantonic woman friends. Woman actually seem to have a matchmaking gene in them and their feel compelled to hook their girlfriends up with their male friends. lol

If you are with 2 other people then you can put yourself in quite a powerful position. You and Erene both have a connection with Laura. So if Erene starts acting like a ***** then just start talking to Laura about something that she won't have much to say on, like an experience which you and Laura shared exclusivly or a private joke etc. This will make her, at the very least shut up, so that you can enjoy yourself. This has worked for me on so many occasions.... almost on a daily basis. Good luck with your friend whatever happens, however!
