basically, my boyfriends best friend hates my guts. i tried being nice to him, but then i got in a conversation with him about religion and he said something really rude after..basically, he told me that he doesn't think i really like my boyfriend and i'm just with him because "i can't get anyone else". but thats NOT TRUE. i like my boyfriend ALOT and i would never be with someone if i didn't like that..but yeah..i didn't get the chance to say anything back to him, so now i'm pretty sure he hates my guts.
what can i do to at least try to have him be nice to me? he doesn't like me at all and i really don't want it to be that way. he's my boyfriend's bestfriend and i want him to respect me as a person..and not think that about me.
And when he tells you that he dosent think you really like your bf hes just trying to get on your nerves. Just dont let it show that it bothers you and just tell him that hes wrong and that his oppinion dosent matter to you, even if it really does. If he really is trying to get on your nerves and you do act like it dosent bother you then he should stop if he dosent then well i wouldnt even bother with him [ confusionwitboys's advice column | Ask confusionwitboys A Question ]

It was a little confusing, but I'll try to help anyway.
I think that the reason he doesnt like you, is because he's afraid that you're going to either change your boyfriend, or force him not to see his friends, and instead spend time with him. So I would suggest the next time your bf says theres something going on with his friends, let him go, even if it means you have to change your plans. That will show that you are a leiniant gf. Let your bf do whatever he wants to an extent, that you can handle. Don't say anything back to him when he accuses you of things. Just say that you don't agree with what hes saying, but he can say what he wants if thats how he feels.
You can;t make someone like you. So you basically just have to let him become okay around you. Talk to your boyfriend about it, and tell him that if he sees his friend talking badly about you, to try and stand up for you. Its hard to say if he will ever treat you the way you wish he would, but he's not the one you have to impress right?
This is a difficult situation, but if you just take it calmly, and dont over react then maybe things will eventually calm down. Hope I helpped, love ya
