What would you do if your friends don't like your girlfriend/boyfriend?  |
|
I have a certain dilemma here. I just found out my friends don't like the person I'm going out with. They won't tell me why though. I tried to explain to them that if I knew why, then maybe I could talk to my special someone about it but they still wouldn't tell me. I really don't know what to do. I love this person but I don't want to lose my friends either.
If you were in my situation, what would you do? Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

| 1. randomz (48) | 3 months ago | i really dont know what to say to this but if you truly care about the person that you are dating and this person is good to you then i think that your friends should respect that

beamsey (225) | 3 months ago | I'm still seeing this person. I love him. It's been more than a year actually. And my friends just told me recently about how they really felt about all this. They have been hinting at it and trying to say it indirectly but it is only now that they really came out with it.
I agree that they should respect my decision to be with this person. Although, if I were in their position, I wouldn't be able to force myself to like someone if I really don't. The least I could do is tell my friend the reason why I don't like the person he/she's going out with and be civil towards that person.

2. mashiuwsan (135) | 3 months ago | Well, if they really are your friends, they would tell you why they don't like the person you're with in the first place. They would be honest and reasonable enough. And they would be decent enough to at least be civil to your special someone.

|

beamsey (225) | 3 months ago | Maybe they're afraid I'll get mad at them or something? I really don't know. They're civil most of the time. That's a good thing. But there are times that my boyfriend feels he's left out and when I try to make him feel part of the group, my friends think I'm trying to make them feel left out. It's like a tug-of-war.

3. KompitaPita (311) | 3 months ago | Woow. I don't know what I'll do if my friends don't like my boyfriend. If I really like and love the person I am going out whit, than I will be confused... It's a real dilemma, but I think that I must be careful and to think about the reason why my friends do not like my boyfriend... If my friends don't like him just because I spend more time whit him and don't have time to go out whit a friends - I will prefer my boyfriend. Our friends do not understand us everytime! Sometimes they can be so egoist! But if they don't like him becouse something wrong that they know abut him - I will try to find what is the reason. You better ask your friends what is the reason. If they are your real friends and if they care - they must tell you what is the reason.

beamsey (225) | 3 months ago | I know what you mean. Sometimes my friends can be so possessive. Other people have actually joked about me being in a romantic relationship with all of my friends because they can be so demanding at times. Right now, I think it's because I spend more time with my someone. But then again, one of my friends hinted that it wasn't really that so it must be something more. They really don't want to tell me though. It's frustrating.

KompitaPita (311) | 3 months ago | Honey, everyone have bad sides. But remember, that peoples can change him self... I know a person, who was really, really bad before and after he found him girlfriend he changes - know I can't believe that it's the same person! So if you find something wrong about your girlfriend - try to understand her and give her a chance. Think in that way: You going out whit a gilr, but her friends don't likes you and they start to talk bad things about you... how will you feel at that moment.... Hope you understand me, even I can not yet explain everything that I want to say, because of my low English level. I wish you luck whit your relationship and hope that everything gonna be OK whit you and your friends and girlfriend....

beamsey (225) | 3 months ago | I understand what you're saying. Your English isn't all that bad.:) Thank you for responding to my discussion. My friends are probably just annoyed that my boyfriend's with us most of the time when we go out so they become possessive. But then again, I'm just trying to bring them closer together. I mean, noone wants to be in the middle of things. And of course, I don't want my boyfriend to feel left out or that he needs to prove himself to my friends.

KompitaPita (311) | 3 months ago | Beamsey, I am so sorry - I don't know why but I thought that you are a boy and you have problems whit your girlfriend and now I see that you are a girl! Sorry, dear. Forgive me that I did that mistake - maybe I must start to read more carefully! Lol.

beamsey (225) | 3 months ago | It's okay.:) I didn't mention it at first because I thought maybe some people would give a biased answer. But then, it's a bit difficult to exclude the gender in all the responses I make in this discussion. It's not a big deal.:)

4. goldenteardrops (133) | 3 months ago | a true friend will stand by you no matter what, you like someone that is up to you maybe you see something they do not? Ask your friends if you can talk to them and say now true friends are you? then tell me and help me for they should not keep things from you and stand by you. you would them right?

5. jaiho2009 (1472) | 3 months ago | Hello beamsey,
I guess your friends are just playing safe,maybe they know some bad sides of your special someone and they can't tell you about it becoz they know you love that person and they don't want you to think wrong about them. Or maybe,they just don't like your special someone...simply like that.
It is your duty to know the real reason behind these. You should know your special someone better,investigate in silence not to hurt your love one and won't make your fiends think that you are feeling bad about them.

beamsey (225) | 3 months ago | As far as I know, my boyfriend has had a few slip-ups. I know he's not an angel and he also has done things I wouldn't want him to do again. But according to my friends, these things aren't it. I'm really confused now because I'm totally clueless as to why they don't like him. In any case, if his past transgressions are the reason, I have learned to forgive him. And since I have, why can't they?

6. bbxe99 (170) | 3 months ago | . Try to find the reason behind this -- sometimes friends may be right. May be they know something you don't and they are afraid of telling you the truth as you may get annoyed. Go to the friends -- one at a time -- be emotional ( do flashbacks of happy friendly moments or ask for help) -- ask calmly -- don't react suddenly -- listen them fully.
. Talk to your love accordingly -- don't shout on her or don't ask in a manner that you suspect her/him.
.If everything goes well -- Try to arrange a surprise get-together without previous knowledge of both the party or birthday party -- Try to mix them.
.If everything goes wrong -- Be cool,have a deep breath and select with whom your future would be peaceful. Work accordingly.
Best of luck -- everything will be fine

beamsey (225) | 3 months ago | Thank you for your advice. I did try talking to them one by one but I didn't get anything. I also tried getting them together but they were like oil and water. They weren't really deliberately ignoring the person, I guess they were just a bit cliquish that time.

7. fjaril (4616) | 3 months ago | I would insist that IF these friends are real friends that they tell me what the problem is.. IF you were a real friend to me and there was something wrong with my 'girlfriend' I would expect you to tell me if I why'.. That sounds so pre teen!!
Do they care about you really?? They don't want you mad or they dont want you hurt???? How is this helping in either case!! What kind of friends are these really?????
Naah I wouldn't stand for that, give me the reason for pete sake, don't be so ridiculous!

8. neelianoscet (2156) | 3 months ago | I would defend my boyfriend despite a lot of arguments between friends and they should understand that I am the one who love and i should learn to live with it. As when you love a person you accept all his wholeness including his greatness and defects. Love is undertanding, patience and could be an instrument to make this boring wold feel magical.

beamsey (225) | 3 months ago | Yes, exactly. I don't want to force my friends to like someone they really don't like. Of course they have their own reasons for not liking him. I just wish they could tell me why. I guess I just have to live with the fact that my boyfriend doesn't please them. As of now, I have no plans of leaving him just because my friends don't like him.

9. solared (878) | 3 months ago | Ya know what usually friends are right often times we are blinded by love, we refuse to see flaws not minor flaws but huge ones, sometimes it takes a friend for us to come to our senses.

10. getbrowser (1425) | 3 months ago | It is unnecessary to get worried about that. When you have fell in love with your boyfriend, you should have been ready to face such peoblems.
For your friends who don't like your boyfriend, perhaps thay have told you the reason whay they have no interests in your partner. From where I stand, as friends, they should let you know the truth. Of course, if your boyfriend is really an excellent man, I guess there are some misunderstandings between your friends and boyfriend, then you can take some measures to make it clear.
Wish you success!
