I use the personal experiences from my life to try to help others. If I don't know, I'll do my best to research. I've found it's just a little bit easier to help someone when you know what they are going through. I'm a student studying education and psychology. I know life can be tough, but everyone deserves happiness. :)

Ok I'm 17 f and I was hanging with my two friends that are girls. My boyfriend was also there but he said I was weird because I act different with my friends and that he felt left out. My boyfriend wanted to give me a hug and kiss but I didn't let him get to lovey dovey because my friends would of felt left out. I was to bussy trying to make my two friends feel less weird by totally not being lovey dovey with my boyfriend and I guess I ignored him in a way, even though I didn't want to. Should I invite my friends when I hang with my boyfriend? Or keep inviting my friends but this time not ignore him and kiss and hug in front of my friends? I'm very akward person so sometimes I don't know what to do..
Thanks for reading!!(:
In my opinion there does need to be a true balance. If your friends are single, (maybe even some that are newly single), the last thing your girl friends would want is to have that shoved in their face.
Nothing is more awkward than when you are right in the middle of laughing or talking about something and your friend starts groping her boyfriend or vice versa. It's a tiny bit rude, and somewhat weird.
In my opinion try to include your boyfriend in on the conversations you guys have to make him feel more a part of what is going on.
Then, try to find those moments when your friends aren't completely focused on you to share a sweet stare/smile and maybe a hand/leg touch or short hug/kiss.
It's a happy medium.
When I was 15/16 it was like I had to be all over the guy I was dating and he had to be all over me, but as I'm going into my mid-twenties (close to 23 now) I don't really think about it much.
When I'm in a relationship or dating a guy it's almost like an understanding.
If your boyfriend was hanging out with his buds would he really have his tongue shoved down your throat the whole time and being all sweet cuddly (I'm over exaggerating), or would he want to talk about sports, cars, music, or whatever interest he may have with his guy friends?
Every person is different, but again, I'd say to just find the little subtle ways to show affection with the looks, soft touches, and including EVERYONE into whatever conversations are going on instead of making either party feel left out or uncomfortable. I hope this helps a little. :)

Thanks! my boyfriend likes to be all over me so it gets hard to tell him to stop and sometimes I feel I ignore him.
