children children, first your friend does have a right to be mad at you. you may not have wanted your friend to say all that crap about your guy friend, however she did. what's he's probaby more so mad about is the fact that you let her do that. you probably could've stopped her but you didn't. even if you weren't in the room, a call after all this had happened probably would've made him realize that it really wasn't you. right now he might be thinking that you're lying to him which is why he's still mad at you.
secondly i think that your guy friend does like you. he's mad at you for something like this because he has interest in you, and now he's questioning if he should stay interested in you. also your gf, she does have a right to say how she feels, only she should keep those feelings between you and her. you can date whoever you chose, and she doesn't have the right to interfere with that. that is just being selfish. i suggest that you keep talking to your guy friend and be honest with him. apologize, and even go see him so that he will have to listen to you. raverboy
