    hey all
    i just wondered if im alone in this..???

    in general, is it normal for a girl not to get on well with her b/f's friends??

    i tend to not hang out with my b/f's friends because well they're not the type of people i would generally mix with.
    plus my b/f kind of knows i dont like them.

    is this a bad thing???
    hope you can help.. thank u :)

    Nope, not just you! Didn't have anything in common with my ex's friends or family, which made socializing as a couple really hard. In the end, we just didn't have enough in common and split up. I was tired of never being able to do stuff that I liked with the ex because we didn't like the same things.
    Having said, that, I don't think you have to enjoy spending loads of time with your boyfriends friends to have a good relationship. But if he's friends with lots of people you don't like, I would imagine he shares some of the characteristics that you don't like as people who are good friends usually have a lot in common.

    I dont think there is anything wrong with it at all - I dont have much in common with any of my OH circles - he seems to have a problem with it but I wouldn't change who I am (considering who I am is who he fell in love it so why would I change) he thinks I should make for of an effort at "talking ****" (his words not mine) I wont "talk ****" to anyone I would be completely transparent.

    It doesn't bother me in the slightest if he and my friends dont have much in common I couldn't care less.
