Where Thoughts and Opinions Converge

What if he expected me to be friend of his "friend"... If they had sex when we gave a brake of 2 weeks and dated before he met me and I remember at first of our relationship she texted him a lot but he never answered so he had like a lot of texts saying "hello" "hi" "answere""answeeeerreee" . Ugh I just think of it and want to pull her hair to the floor so hard. Plus, we went out with her, so I could met her cuz he said I could have a great time with her and I am sure, she was flirting all the time. Am I wrong? Am I crazy? I don't treat my friends like that... I don't have sex with my friends, I just don't!

@SydneyT no, you need to know u deserve more than that.

My boyfriend and I have been dating for two years. He recently started hanging out with this girl, who is very flirtatious, touchy and has strange friend boundaries. She's constantly wanting to hang out with him and texting him at all kinds of hours. I saw how the two of them interact with each other and she is way out of line. My boyfriend says she makes him uncomfortable but he really likes her as a person and friend. He has limited their contact but she's constantly trying to get him alone to hang out with her. I'm worried that he has feelings for her too. What else can I do to put this problem to rest?

Here's the deal, men don't need a have a little flock of hoes on the side or little "friends". Little boys do that. A real man will honor u and lift u up and u should never have to deal with this. If his little girlfriends r more important, screw him then

I need help trying to master this

well I was able to talk to my boyfriend about it but eventually it did not work out, he refused to tell his good female friend that he was in a relationship stating that is private and that it is difficult to be a friend with the opposite sex and he did not want their friendship to change, also he refused to tell his ex fiance that he was in a relationship again citing that it is private and then refriended her on FB after they had a dinner together and she apologized for breaking up with him...so I tried to do the lets all be friends etc, but to not even tell them that I exist after a year and a half, we are now done...and can you believe it I actually am struggling with it

What if it is his ex wife who still depends on him for everything?
