Alright. Here's my first time posting in this section of the forums, but here I go. Skip down to, "So, here is my problem" if you don't want to read the other stuff. Everything else just gives insight into my history with these guys.
I have two friends who I am close with. Somewhat like our own little social group. We do everything together... whether it be hanging out at each others houses, going to the mall, going to the movies, whatever. This is just my problem.
Let's say my friends names are Cameron and Nick. I have known Cameron since I moved to this state... and he has always been a great friend. Always has been there for me to talk to, rant to, whatever. He's really great. A true friend. But he is... too clingy, so to say.
And then there is Nick. He is also a great friend of mine. He moved to my school from the Southern US (despite being born here) in the 7th grade. He didn't have any friends yet, so he sat down at my lunch table with Cameron and a few other friends. After a while, we deemed him as annoying and quit talking to each other. Now that it's Freshman year for me, I discovered that I have about 3 hours with Nick during the day. Despite myself hating him at the time, I started talking to him and decided to make it work out. In no time, we are best friends (as we have always been stragglers with getting friends). We talk nearly daily, whatever.
So, here is my problem: I want to hang out one-on-one with Nick. He is awesome, but Cameron really doesn't permit that to happen. He must be there every time I am with Nick. You see, Nick is completely different around Cameron than he is around me (as Cameron is more hyped up and immature than I am). I am not saying I don't like having fun, but it becomes a problem when they "tip the maturity scale". All I want is to hang out with Nick alone. What should I do? I am stumped...
