My friend is mean to me when she's talking to her boyfriend, what do I do?
My friend always gets rrealy mean when she's talking to her boyfriend. Whether it's online, or on the phone, she's just always really mean to me. I've tried thinking of why she might be doing it, but the only reason I could come up with is that she's trying to make herself look better. I'd like to think my friend was different but people can surprise you. My question here is what do I do?

The first thing I say to do is to confront her. While this may be hurting you a lot, your friend might not actually realize what she is doing. Sometimes when girls are around their boyfriends, they feel more confident and sometimes "better" than other girls. If it is true though that she is doing this to impress her boyfriend, than she is not being a true friend to you. Everyone should be treated with respect, and if she is not treating you nicely, even after you talk to her, than I would slowly stop trying to be around her with her boyfriend. If more drama comes out of this, then take a little break from the friend. She should in the longrun realize how much of a good friend you are, but if she doesnt, then the friendship was not meant to be. So just talk to her, I'm sure everything will work out(:

sometimes girls do that to show off infront of their bf's to show that theyr cool etc.its very common trust me!the thing to do is tell her how you feel when her bf isnt there just be calm about the situation and just say that you dont want to offend her but could she just stop making fun of you when her bf is around etc and give her examples of times shes done it and tell her it hurts you.be calm about the situation dont make it a big thing but you want to make yourself clear

I think you're right- she's probably rude to you to make herself look better. I'm betting she has self-confidence issues and wants to look cool in front of her boyfriend, so she uses you to do so. That's not cool.
She might be doing this unintentionally, but I would ask her about it. It hurts to be used to make someone else look better. I would confront her in a non-challenging, casual way and just ask her if she's ever noticed herself doing this. Don't get mad at her or she'll get defensive. Just tell her how you're feeling and ask her to make a conscious effort to stop doing it.
good luck. =]
