Feelings that might prevent Tamzyn from handling her problem could include: betrayal, hurt, anger, embarrassment, shame, confusion, fear of confrontation, fear of losing her best friend, lack of self-confidence.

Tamzyn should handle the situation by first confronting her best friend and expressing her feelings about the conversation she overheard. She should ask for an explanation and discuss how she feels betrayed by her friend's comments. Depending on her friend's response, Tamzyn may need to reassess the friendship and determine if it is worth continuing. She should also consider talking to the young man directly to clarify any misunderstandings and defend her own reputation. It is important for Tamzyn to prioritize her own feelings and well-being in this situation and to not allow herself to be mistreated by others.
