Okay, so, about this “my girlfriend friend” thing. It’s been a real head-scratcher, you know? I started noticing my girl was spending a lot more time with this one particular friend. Like, a LOT more time. At first, I didn’t think much of it. Friends hang out, right? But then it got to the point where every time I suggested we do something, she was already busy with her friend.
So, I started to put my effort into it. First, I tried to talk to my girlfriend. Just a casual, “Hey, you guys seem to be spending a lot of time together lately, everything okay?” But she just brushed it off, saying they were just good friends and I shouldn’t worry. I tried to get her to let me join her friend a couple of times, but she did not accept my offer.
- I watched them more closely. Not in a creepy way, just paying attention to how they interacted. Were they overly touchy-feely? Was there a vibe I was missing?
- I also tried to up my own game. Planned more date nights, tried to be more attentive, that sort of thing. Basically, I tried to show her that I was still interested and invested in the relationship.
- I even tried to become better friends with her friends. Joined a couple of outings, tried to find common ground. It was awkward as hell, to be honest, but I figured it was worth a shot.
After doing all that, it became clear that maybe I was overthinking things. They were just really close friends. Still, it was a good reminder that relationships need work, even the friend ones. You can’t just take people for granted, you know? You gotta put in the effort, communicate, and sometimes, yeah, even get a little out of your comfort zone.
Keep learning, keep doing!
So that’s my story. It wasn’t some big dramatic thing, but it taught me a lot about relationships and communication. Hope it helps someone out there. Keep learning, keep doing! Never stop!
