I hope you're ready to hear of some high school drama, because OP is delivering tonight. I'm in search of advice and opinions, and for some reason I reached out to Reddit for just that. 

So I'm at a complete standstill at the moment and the best way to resolve this problem would probably be to jerk off, sleep, and make a decision tomorrow. 

I asked this girl I've been into for about a month to prom. We went on a date last Saturday and all went well and she seemed pretty interested in me. I asked if she's interested in me before and she said yes, but is not interested in perusing a relationship at the moment.

In comes one of my best friends, known him for 4 years, we know a lot of information and dirt on each other. He's known the girl for about a year now. They're good friends and I know this as fact. I asked her if she is interested in him as more than friends beforehand, and she said she use to be, but no longer is. For this reason, I assumed that he would be O.K with me chasing this girl.

Well, I asked this girl to prom in class. She said yes and we setup some plans for friday. My friend - completely unaware that I asked her, asked her to prom an hour later. No fucking shit this actually happened within less than an hour.

She apparently replied she's going with me. I know this because he started texting me immature texts calling me a jackass and a backstabber. 

So what I've essentially done here is put the girl in a very bad position all together, potentially lost a friendship, and started problems I want nothing of. All I want are things to be O.K.

Please provide advice outside of "Forget both, find somebody else" or "Fuck him, go after her" or the other way around. Because it's her decision, I just don't want to lose a friendship and start lots of problems.
