Question about "friends"..

Re: Question about "friends"..

Maybe they don't like her because of that whole prom ordeal?

I was in a similar situation. Would hang out with this girl that none of my friends liked and they had no problem telling me about it. I started blowing them off for her, but in the end, they were right about her.

Your boys are your brothers, especially if you guys have grown up together. They got your back and don't want to see anyone disrespect you, especially some female.

Quite honestly, I'm surprised you to still talk to her after the whole prom thing. That would have been the end of it for me. But anyways...I agree with diesel, bros before hoes.

...I agree with diesel, bros before hoes.

I still marvel at the blatant disprespect for women on this site (at least by a few). Sure it's "slang", but calling any and all women "hoes"? Come on fellas, grow up!

It's just another HS drama, which unfortunately got propogated by MagicSoxFan (who's now a couple years PAST high school).

Let's hear real issues, not some stupid high school BS!

Oh, and lay off the female bashing. Don't you have a girlfriend diesel? Would you bail on her for your "bros"? I mean not all women/girlfriends/wives are bad.

Geez!

Wow. Didnt think someone could be that "politically correct".
And if you wanna hear real issues, dont read this thread. The guy asked for help. The issue is important to him. So why dont you leave and take your "Im better than high school drama" attitude to somewhere else?

Geez.

Re: Question about "friends"..

Kinda reminds me of something when I was in HS.

There were 5 of us that were in school and best friends for 5 or so years and the one guy got a gf. I should mention I did not care for the guy to much because he had the dullest personality anyway the other guys were friends with him so I did not mention anything of it. Back to the story when the guy got his gf he started to get phased out, not on purpose but when you did call the guy or whatever he would want to bring her along every time. I dont care if it happens most of the time but eventually a line should be drawn. Anyway we all stopped calling but we never were attempting to exclude the guy we just figured he was with her.

All 5 of us go to the same college (I guess this is rare...i dont know) anyway but we still have not started talking to him again. And now when I personally run into him it is really random and I walk away thinking, what the hell did i just talk about with him.

Anyway I am saying the guys may not even notice they are doing it to you, with the guy I knew none of us paid any attention to it, well atleast that I am aware of.

While I would normally agree that it's bros before hoes, this situation is different because JJ isn't even dating this girl. She's a friend. I'd take the most loyal friend, which in this situation seems to be the girl. These other guys seem to be idiots.

My best friend is also a girl (heck, most of them are minus a few). If I had other friends making me choose, I'd pick her without any question.

Same here. It's actually kind of interesting how a lot of guys seem to have a lot of close female friends and not so many guy friends, and the opposite is true for females. Is it the competition?

Re: Question about "friends"..

It seems like every female I talk to, they will actually say that they are straight up annoyed by girls. I think quite a few girls can't stand dealing with the drama that goes with having many girl friends, so they choose to have guy friends instead.

Yes, I do. And no I wouldn't bail on her for my "bros", but I don't bail on them either.

But girls will always come and go, but these are his closest friends, those are hard to find. Plus, its not like they are dating or anything.

Re: Question about "friends"..

Another classic example of one of my friends getting pissed because I hang out with her happened last night:

I'm with her at Wal-Mart walking around and buying a movie, and my one friend calls me and asks me to play basketball. I told him that I was with her and I'd be able to play in like 30 minutes. I was then told "Wow, you hang out with her and you're never going to get any, and you're alienating all of your friends and you have no social life". Then today, two of my other friends made a whip out of newspaper, and the one with the whip pretended to be her and the other pretended to be me. Gotta love it.

Not trying to be an ******* to you, but did it ever dawn on you to simply say you were at Wal-Mart and you'd be ready in 30 minutes? It seems like you made it the issue that you were at Wal-Mart with her.

Actually I did just say I was at Wal-Mart, but he said "let me guess, with (girl's name)?". I didn't want to be shady and lie about it.

Sounds like they are immature and can't comprehend the fact that you can be friends with a girl and not have it turn into a relationship.

Yup. Bottom line, you're not going to be hanging out with these kids in a few years anyways, so who gives a **** what they think. I only keep in touch with 1 person from HS and I only see him maybe twice a year. If they're too immature to deal with it, find new friends.

Re: Question about "friends"..

Find new friends.

Seriously, if my friends ever tried to pull that **** with the newspaper whip and all that...I would laughed in their faces and told them to get a life.

Honestly, they're just jealous if they're doing pathetic stuff like that. You don't need them. I'd say you'll never talk to them again and all of that since they're just HS friends, but the close group of friends I had in HS have been my friends since we were 5, so I'll always be friends with them...but with most situations, it's true. Most of the friends you have for the rest of your life you'll meet in and after college. I know that is the case with my sister, her friends, and my parents.

What about the large majority of people who don't go to college?

I think I can understand where they come from. They are jealous and upset that they are losing touch with one of their best friends. Plus, they probably don't even like the girl. And, it sounds like she has changed who you are.

They said you aren't getting any? I can understand why they would said that.
They said you have no social life? Do you ever go to parties? Or hang out with a large group of friends anymore? Or is all your time with this girl?
