Ever felt like your guy friend's girlfriend is jealous of you?

I'm pissed at my guy friend's girlfriend. I posted something on my friend's profile joking about things we joked about way way back. Then the next day, she posted something right on top of my post: "MIKE IS A FLIRTY GUY BUT YOU DREAM ON!!!...just a riddle..I love you." My eyebrows arched. Then that's the time my friend stopped replying to our friendly exchange of messages. His girlfriend and I know each other and I have always tried to bond with her. I'm just totally pissed that she's not considering the fact that I'm very very serious with my boyfriend now and I don't give a damn about any other guy. I don't want to be cold to my friend for the sake of not looking like I'm flirting with him or whatever his girlfriend might think. I'm sooo pissed. How would you deal with this? If you have experienced this how did you handle it?

What you need to do is invite herout to coffee or a drink and have a talk with her. Let her know where you stand with your friend and your boyfriend. Let her know that you dont have any intentions of coming between them and you are nothing more than a friend and have no desire to be anything more than that.

That could also be nice. :) But wouldn't that make me look defensive?

well, yes whats you are saying is perfectelly true and keeps happening with the friends, but the best way to respond such type of things is to let it settle down itself. The more discuss with ur friend, the more this will go and might bring an end to your friendship. so in my view you just need to relax and foreget these things

Thanks for the tip. :) Yes, maybe I would take that advice of yours. Sometimes, things should just be left untouched and it would just fade away just like that. :)

Yes I have experienced this, I found the best thing to do is to try and include your freinds partner in activities you also enjoy, it may be hard at first with her being so stubborn but don't let it ruin your freindship. Just ignore the way she acts and continue to be kind to her, either eventually she will come round and realise she can be a freind to you too or if she continues to act this way she may loose her boyfreind altogether. there is also the chance if you start being nasty to her that you loose a good freind, I would just pretend you don't notice when she is being narky, or it may come between your freindship.

Thanks for your response. :) Yes, maybe I should just pretend I didn't notice her being narky. After all, I'm more concerned with the happiness of my friend. My friend would really appreciate it if I do my best to always include his girlfriend in activities everybody would enjoy. Have a nice day. :)
