What if you and your friend like the same person?

me personally i would talk about it with him or her just try and sort things out.in fact i think there might be a chance that me and my friend at school like the same girl so i plan to maybe ask her out soon,which is also good advice if you or your friend just think you like the same person but dont know for sure try getting to him or her first before them,thats what i plan to do but if you dont want to hurt your friend then talk to them it will help
