i have a best friend and also i consider her as one of my older sister. I treat her with respect. Sad to say we always have misunderstanding because i found out that she got jealous with my girlfriend. I don't know what to do.

I think it's normal for friends to get jealous over another friend's lover but in your case I think you should ask your girl best friend why is she getting jealous. I don't know but she might has something to say to you regarding the matter.

Sometimes, especially when you almost give your time to your boyfriend/girlfriend..They were thinking that you don't want to be with them anymore since most of your time you are together with your boyfriend/girlfriend.. In my case, my friends sometimes jealous with my boyfriend because I give more time with my boyfriend than to them same in vice versa.. My friends is also the friend of my boyfriend.. We are friends since 1st year college up to now.. It was about 4 years already..

Yes maybe but he never admit it, but its so obvious that his mad of me because I'm always with the girl that happened to be my wife right now. From highschool life to college life we are always together until I met my wife and my time now is devide to two until i choose my wife to be my best friend. But now were ok and the worst part is that his still a bachelor in the age of 30.

Do you think this friend of yours may have feelings for you more then a friend? Maybe that is why she is jealous? When I first started dating my partner a couple of years ago. A good friend of mine got really jealous, she even told me as she said she was worried we wouldn't hang out anymore. My friend and I used to see each other everyday. It did change our frienship a little as I was spending alot of time with my boyfriend. However I still saw her at work and on the weekends. We just didn't see each other everyday. Friends need to realise, that things in life changes all the time and that shouldn't have to effect your friendship just because you get a boyfriend/girlfriend. I think real friends should be happy for you.

Hi julyteen. Yes it happen many times. Maybe it is because they are thinking that they will lose us. Have a bf/gf don't mean that you break your friendship with your friends. I really can't understand this jealous from our friends about it. Each relation is different the other. We can have both very well don't you think so?

Sometimes our friends are jealous because they know we will be spending less time with them when we find a boyfriend or girlfriend. Make sure you set aside time for just friends without your girlfriend around so that your friends don't feel this way. Occasionally invite your girlfriend along so she doesn't feel left out, but make sure it's okay with the friend.
