bestfriend's boyfriend


Question Posted Thursday October 23 2008, 10:33 pm

My bestfriend is always trying to get me and my boyfriend to double with her and hers. The problem is that her boyfriend really likes mine but my boyfriend finds hers a tad annoying and doesnt really want to hang out with him. He likes my bestfriend just not her boyfriend. So I'm not sure what to do because she keeps asking us to do stuff and sometimes we go but its ALOT more often that we dont. And I know my boyfriend has a horrible time when we go because her boyfriend will try to pull him away and things like that. And I can't tell my bestfriend this because it'll upset her

You're right... you definitely shouldn't tell your bestfriend. That would hurt her unnecessarily. Talk to your boyfriend. Tell him that you understand that he has a rotten time with this guy, and that you hate to ask him to do something that he doesn't enjoy... but that your friendship with your bestfriend is very important to you, and if you keep avoiding these double dates, it will cause hard feelings between you and your friend.

Ask him if he wouldn't mind hanging out with them just once in a while. If you do it just every so often, it won't seem like you're completely avoiding them. Just a small sacrifice on your boyfriend's part to help you maintain an important friendship. In return, you can offer to do something of his choosing, that you normally don't like doing.

Hope it works out! =)
