Helppp

I have this really big crush on this, cute, sarcastic, funny and smart guy. But two of my friends like him. And one of them had been mourning over her first and only boyfriend for a long time. I told her today it was okay to go after him, since he was too cute and popular and im not. My friend is really pretty and basically can have any guy she wants. Should I save myself the embarrasment and just let her have him? My other friend backed off because she saw my face and realized I wasn't okay with t even though I said I would.
