i cant STAND my best friends boyfriend..


Question Posted Saturday July 1 2006, 12:08 am

My friend lets call her.. Jaci, well I basically hate her boyfriend with all my heart. Hes so annoying. He gets mad at anything I say.. I just will be talking about like clothing or something, to Jaci.. & he gets all mad. Or if I tease him just jokingly, he like gets so offeneded. Then, when he teases me, & if I get mad, he freaks out. & says I'm gay to be getting mad. So, what do I do to make him stop?! I tried telling Jaci, & him. That he needs to stop. But, he just won't. What else can I do, to make it better?!

I'm sorry to say you just have to deal with him. Obviously Jaci sees something in him that you don't.

The best you can do is talk to him and just say that you don't know why the two of you don't get along, and you'd like to try to be friends.

People respond better when you put it positively (DO try to be my friend) rather than negatively (DON'T be mean to me).

But you have to contribute to this trying to get along as well. Friendship is a joint effort. No matter how mean he is, you need to try to be nice, or he'll just be even meaner, and use the excuse that you weren't nice to him.

If this doesn't work, just remember that relationships don't last forever, and your friendship will survive this. Good luck.
