How do you feel when your S/O talks to others about your relationship?

Ok heres the scoop My S/O talks to his best friend about everything, Which is fine with me he needs friends to talk to as well as I do. but the problem is that this friend always tells him stuff that is way off base. For instance today my S/O (Jay) told his friend that we don't talk alot and that is pretty normal for us because we are both pretty quiet people. And his friend tells him that we are using eachother for S3X. Now that is totally not how I feel and Jay says the same but I dunno what to do with this friend. He's driving me bonkers with the misinformation he keeps giving my man. What would you do in my situation? Leave it along or would you call him on it?

My husband has had friends that have been way off base with their assessments of what my husband had told them as well. As long as your s/o keeps telling him information about your relationship; the friend is going to have an opinion whether it is right or wrong. There is really nothing you can do or say. It is just his opinion. If your s/o doesn't want his advice or thinks he is wrong maybe he needs to find someone else to confide in. Your s/o obviously tells you what he says; I think this opens the line of communication and you and your s/o can discuss whatever was said. If your s/o isn't buying into what his friend is telling him; I don't think you have a whole lot to worry about. Thankfully my husband doesn't buy into a lot of what his friends say either. They are younger and without families so they think the way single guys do. They don't understand. He does have a good friend who is un-biased and will give helpful advice when he really needs it though.

Oh yea I know he needs someone to talk to for sure but my problem is my S/O is very easily lead and his friend knows if he said something enough to him he will start to believe it. He has caused a few problems between us and he needs to keep his nose outta our business.
