Okay, so me and my boyfriend have been dating for almost 3 months now and I really like him...but the other day we had a really big argument and he broke up with me and we spent 2 hours on the phone and by the end of that we were back together. The day after that he tells me he'll be home early to talk to me and he his but he says he has to run to the store and get something so I wait for him to call back. When he finally calls back he's with his friend (who i hate and is the biggest jerk I've met) and I kinda get upset because I haven't had a good day and I just want to talk to him and his friend starts insulting me and my boyfriend starts laughing at me and then he gives the phone to his friend. They start drinking and they're insulting me to the point I'm crying. I really love my boyfriend and when he's not around his friend he's the nicest guy I know but I dont know what I should do about it.

If he is not standing up for you with his friends and protection you. Then what kind of boyfriend is he. You deserve way better than this.

Don't be afraid to talk to me further about this. [ Punkrocker548172's advice column | Ask Punkrocker548172 A Question ]

If you really can't stand his friend, and he is going to treat you like crap when his friend is around, I would seriously reconsider having him as a boyfriend.
Find a guy who will shut up any friend who mistreats you or cuts you down. They are out there to be had!
Any guy who will let his friends make fun of you or will actually join in on the torment, is not someone you want around.
Talk to him. If he agrees to change the behavior and you really care for him you can give him the opportunity to change. If he doesn't change, send him packing. :) [ karenR's advice column | Ask karenR A Question ]

First off, what guy who claims to love his girlfriend, insults her, acts completely different around his friends, and makes her cry? I say drop this guy because you can tell a lot about a person by who they hang out with & what they do when they're hanging out. The quicker you let him go, the faster you find a NICE guy who actually really does love you. :) One day, you'll find someone who treats you right.
bakakitten answered Monday February 6 2006, 10:07 pm: You can tell a lot about a person's real character by how they act when they're around their friends. If I were you, I would break up with him now before you waste more time on a guy that isn't who you really think he is.
Breaking up sucks, but the sooner you let the bad ones go, the sooner you will meet a guy that actually treats you right.
