My friends boyfriend

2 months ago · 1 · help me, +2


80

Over the last year I’ve become best friends with a girl that I do a lot of activities with. We always carpool to practices and concerts and we just click in a way I haven’t with someone in a long time. About two months ago she got a boyfriend, and I don’t hate him at all, but I do hate the way it’s made her act. We almost never carpool anymore because she has her boyfriend take her places, and whenever we hang out all she can talk about is how great he is. I’ve been in a relationship for 8 months and I never talk about my girlfriend as much as my friend talks about her boyfriend because I feel like it’s something that we don’t connect to when talking about, so I just don’t say anything. I don’t know how to tell her that I’m sick of hearing about how fantastic this guy is. To be honest, he seems a little weird, especially since he asked her out when he was already 18 and she was 15. I’m not jealous of her or anything, but I would love to have a day where we just act like we used to with our ice cream runs and our stupid jokes. Nowadays it seems like I’ve taken a back seat in her life just to make room for him.

    People are like this. I had a friend who as soon as she got a boyfriend didn't want to know me. This is life.
