My 16-yr. old daughter is VERY loyal to her friends, especially her BFF.  Lately, her BFF has been focusing more of her attention on a boy who she enjoys being around.  Consequently, my daughter feels somewhat abandoned.  I try to remind her that she has lots of other friends but that 's not what she wants to hear.  I believe my daughter is hoping that her BFF will give up this boy and spend all her free time with my daughter like she did in the past.  But I think my daughter's possessiveness will drive a wedge between herself and her BFF.  How do I help her cope with the inevitable?  Thanks!
