i’ll never understand dropping a friend you’ve known for years just cuz ur partner (unreasonably) doesn’t like them. when they come crawling back after they break up, i’m NOT taking them back

My best guy friend of 6 years got a girlfriend. He broke my heart when he told me he can’t talk to me for some time because she was uncomfortable. And no, we’re never had sex. We always been platonic. It’s been 4 months and I’ve respected his wishes. 💔

if they’re willing to drop you so easily bc of someone they’ve just started dating, we can’t be friends anymore. like what is wrong w u

I think the biggest thing is communication. Maybe have a sit down with them to understand how they are uncomfortable. Maybe they have issues like feeling insecure or deep rooted trust issues they are working through. At that point, if you truly love your friend, you all can work as a group to work through it but no one should be pushed away because of another.

I’m on the fence, I honestly don’t know how I’ll react if he were to say something. I just know I’d never do the same.

you don’t deserve to be treated as someone who can just be pushed out and let back in on a whim. especially when the gf hasn’t met you. ik you’ve known each other for a long time but he’s shown his (lack of) loyalty to you as a best friend. up to u to decide if he reaches out later

I think for some its a fine line to balance. You have to respect your partner but you also have to respect your friendships. It definitely shows priorities and that they are prioritizing that relationship over everything.

yes it boggles me how some people make a decision without having a long conversation about it
