My girlfriend and I as of 11 months July27, are having an issue. There's this guy I CANT STAND. He's done a lot of things I can't stand him for, (they went out a long time ago for one) I know thats a stupid reason to dislike him and I guess I dont really hate him for it. It just makes me feel iffy but anyway, I was having a convo with him one day and he started calling me a "fucking retard" jokingly, I explained to him that it bothers me a lot and to please not do that because I have a 19 year old sister to whom is mentally challenged and its mean to speak of people with disabilities as a joke. After I explained all that to him he told me "get over it you big baby" and started laughing, we got in a fight and basically I want to kick his ass.. Hes always "harmlessly" trying to flirt with her. I trust her 100% I swear on my life I love her like no other. I just cant stand him. He also tried to "nibble" her neck while her and I were going out for 2 months. Is it to much for me to ask for her to just stop talking to him? I asked her not to and she keeps talking to him and he she says that im wrong for not trying to talk to him

this is a tough situation and im sorry for that. i hope everything works out for teh best.
also i love the fact that you stick up for your sister. its an honorable thing! :) [ pinkcherries's advice column | Ask pinkcherries A Question ]

No, it is not too much to ask her to stop talking to her. You two are together, not him and her, but this guy is her friend. You cannot really stop a girl from having her friends, so she should at least be able to talk to him.
When she does something as if she is in a relationship with him (letting him nibble on her, kissing, or any touching), then you should talk to her and say "I really don't appreciate when you do ______", and be serious. If she doesn't listen, tell her 'if she loves you she wouldn't be so rude to you'. If you don't want to talk to the guy because you feel hate inside, then don't. If he smartens up, try to talk to him. At least let your girl know what this guy said to you. It will help her understand how you feel about him.
If she doesn't change her act, maybe it is time to move on. Since you do really love her, keep trying to talk some sense into her (nicely, by discussing problems). Eventually she will listen; it will take time and rough patches, but it is possible <3 [ gr8fruit's advice column | Ask gr8fruit A Question ]
