Girls with guys as there "best friends" are the worst. Unless he's gay, he wants to get in her pants. Lay your cards on the table, tell her how it makes you feel being around him. I've been there and done that, it doesn't ever get any better.....also when you do tell her, ask her how she would feel if there was a girl flirting with you in her group of friends...she wouldn't like it

Tell him he's a douche and he needs to stay away from your woman. No need to tell her, because she's gonna go tell him, and he'll tell her about how you're not the man he is because he would have said it directly, and then your girlfriend will slob his knob.

she part time volunteers at local schools to talk about composting and the like


Crazy lady down the street is 'into composting' and is a self proclaimed organic gardener. Half a bubble off level and a yard full of stray animals that she 'rescued'.

That's how this ends chief - a house with feral cats roaming around it and lengthy discussions about manure.

Your call.

Just ask if there is a history between them.

I mean, don't say "yo, did you frick this dude or make out with him?".

So how do I handle this when my GF bring him up again and again or when she talks to him the entire time at the bars?


I only read the first page, so let's take the bull by the horns and deal with what's bothering you.

You told us how you feel. Now it's time to tell her, and be direct, say what you mean, and don't back down.

Tell her it upsets you greatly/piss the hell out of when she brings him up all the time in conversations. Things like that don't happen in normal, healthy relationships. Tell her it pisses you off when she spends all the time at gatherings hanging out with him. Tell her you're not going to stand by the sideline, or be forced to make small talk with people you don't know/care to know. Tell her if she has a problem with that, you won't go and meet the group anymore.

It's time to draw a line in the sand. You aren't happy, and the relationship is destined to fail unless she sees your point and complies.

How do you think she would handle you fawning over another woman or speaking about her all the time?

Yeah, that wouldn't work at all I bet.

Good luck.

I intercepted a text conversation between your GF and that dude.



And this one too

Don't be an insecure beta. Tell her what you will what you will not put up with any longer.

She'll let you know that once you draw a line in the sand. It's time you take charge of the situation.

Sounds like you are accustomed to being the center of attention and this guy has more star power than you do. No matter how smart, how rich, how handsome, how clever you may be there is always someone out there who can put you to shame. I think you just met him.

When I first met my wife, there were several guys in her extended group of friends who were in love with her. One guy took my coming around well, one was a pussy who would get drunk and follow her around when we'd go out, and the other was a HUGE douche (honestly top 5 terrible people I can think of) who thought he was the coolest and would try to take her attention from me. The one guy would come up to us at tailgates and ask her if she wanted to go for a walk and stuff when I was standing with her. After a few times if her blowing them off it stopped. If she would have once shown them any attention over me, I would have walked (half because it would be disrespectful, half because I wouldn't be with someone who would possibly date these turds). She was still friendly with them, but she never let it get to the level that she was flirting or leading them on. When they realized I was there to stay they either quit talking to her when we were out, or accepted it and weren't that difficult to be around.

Here's the part I don't get. You were dating lots of girls and got tired of it and decided to have a girlfriend and landed on this one.

Shouldn't it be more organic than that? Like you're dating plenty of girls and one in particular stole your heart? No "decision" made to have a girlfriend.

She's not the one.

Your girl is always going to desire the genuine alpha no matter what you do.

Telling her to stop is only going to perpetuate her desires.

She is genetically programmed to seek his seed.

Id say good luck, but there is not much hope. '

Just be lucky your girl isnt that attractive or the genuine alpha would have chosen her and not placed her into the friendzone.

This is probably fair. I think highly of myself, but when I meet a guy who I feel is my either "better" or is thought of as "better" or "more desirable" than me I instantly feel like I'm not sexy, smart, interesting, funny, etc.

It definitely stems from self esteem issues that I've battled much of my life. In some respects my insecurities have driven and motivated me and helped me to stand out. But in instances such as this one they torment me.
