ok my one of my best friends has been dating this guy for about 5 months now, but she changed when she started dating him, she ignored all of her friends, started spending everyday with her boyfriend, and getting really jealous if anyone was around her boyfriend and would complain/worry that he would dump her if he found someone prettier. she told him within the 2 week of them dating that if in a year and they reevaluated themselves and they still really liked each other that she would give herself to him.she has become very protective over him and clings to him but he also follows her around like a lost puppy at lunch she no longer sits with her friends but sits alone with him at the table, she has lost all of her friends and im about to discontuine this friendship we've been friends for almost 6 years but this has gotten rediculous she doesnt talk to me and if i try to talk to her shes all over her boyfriend, making me very uncomfortable and ive told her this, yet she will contuine to kiss him and hang on him when im trying to talk to her, she would pull him out of classes just so they could be together and now she is trying to change him (somehow he is ok with all of this). but everytime ive tried to confront her about how shes neglecting her friends she gets really mad and lashes out at me, she will say things like your just not being supportive of me and my boyfriend, your just jealous because i have a loving boyfriend and i dont, or your not a good friend. ive told her many times im happy for her and boyfriend and ive even invited them to come to events with us but she refuses to bring him anywhere near her friends. (plus now her boyfriend has told her that hes going to marry her) %26gt;HES A Junior and shes a sopmore) everytime ive tried confronting her we get into fights each one getting worse then the last and it just keeps escalating im tired of all the drama, she use to be really fun, popular and nice but now shes really irritable, jealous and has no friends, shes become a frequent subject of negative gossip and sadly i agree with most of the things i hear about her.... i dont know what to do i want to contuine my friendship with her but lately all shes been doing is making my self confidence shrink..ive tried having girl only nights and they were fine except that she kept texting her boyfriend even when we asked her to stop, etc. then the other day she got mad at me for a misunderstanding about how she said she would sell me her ds well i sent her a txt saying hey i have the check written out i guess whenever you want to exchange it then ill bring it to school i got a txt back from her where she was screaming at me saying i was idiot and that she didnt say she was going to sell it i just replied well ok then i guess just never mind, (i figured she had a bad day) then later that day i asked if she ok and i got another crude reply: your stupid, good luck with your (insert my personal issue here) i always knew something was wrong with you. (she fired a comment back at me about a personal issue that i confided in her the night before) i sent back a message saying that was a low blow even for her and i didnt get a response but when i got on FB there was a message from her saying:I feel better now :) all of the fighting is finally OVER! Sometimes, ig it's best just to let things go, even if they were one of your best friends. I hope she reads this, and I hope one day she and I will be able to restart and make a new friendship, until that day comes, I'll enjoy the peace
and i know shes saying that to make me angry and seem like its my fault but she attacked me out of NOWHERE!
PLEASE HELP!! i dont now what to do.......Ok so heres what happened!!!?
I know you love your friend very much but you must let her go...if she comes back fine! You guys will be better friends than before! However, If she dose not come back then she never was your friend in the first place...so just let her go!!!.Ok so heres what happened!!!?
Just explain to her how you feel! and say that would never do that to her! ( calm down a little )
answer mine? http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index?…
Oh I know how it feels. But the best thing do is get out of there. That friendship is toxic and as you said, your self-confidence is shrinking and no friend should do that to you. If she wants do ditch her friends for a guy, and won't listen to anything you say, the best thing to do is let her. I know its hard but you have other friends and they'll be there for you. Just wait until this guy dumps her, she'll ask to sit with you guys again and it'll all be back to normal. Good luck with waiting it out.
Viewing conflict in senior relationships, or any relationships, as an opportunity for growth can go against instinctive responses. When conflict arises, we often feel attacked. Our fight or flight response may be triggered. We think we must choose between passivity or defense. However, if you don’t personalize the problem (i.e. make it about you) then this level of reaction becomes unneeded. Instead, you can logically look at the situation, open to the other person’s input, and decide together what can be done to help make things better.
The quickest way to deal with conflict is to avoid blame or judgment. Simply explain your experience to your partner. Your goal is to share your emotions and worries, not to decide who is bad. Challenge yourself to not view your partner’s behavior as “wrong.” While it may be displeasing to you, this does not make one person right and the other one wrong. Furthermore, he/she is not responsible for your reaction. Your feelings are important and should be communicated in this way so your partner can hear you.
