my girlfriend really doesn’t like my friend of several years. she is constantly snippy with him and she and her friends, i’ve heard, talk behind his back and say stuff about how annoying he is.
i was treated the exact same way when i was bullied, so it really got me reminded of that and i got a little upset but thought i overreacted.
i’m giving her the benefit of the doubt, just wanted to share that. i hope i’m dating a nice person and not secretly a bully.
edit: we broke up.
She should be able to express not wanting to hang out with given friends of yours in a safe and constructive way.
I have friends my wife doesn’t like, i have friends my wife absolutely adores. In both cases clear boundaries and respect for the fact that these are my friends were made.
Agreed.
