    Hi,
    I normally post on here..but going anon for this one...
    Not sure if people on here have come across this before….
    I started going out with a girl a few months ago..everything thing is going great. She met some of my friends and gets on with them, she knew some of them even before we met. But one of my friends, has given me a hard time since I've met her….giving me all this you don’t want to know anyone anymore, you'll never be out we arent good enough for you anymore etc…this is the same person who said that he wouldn't include me in the groups plans anymore now that I have a girlfriend (its like him and his gf are the group leaders what they says goes). He also wouldn’t answer my texts or would be short on the phone if he actually answered a call and I always had to call him. It kind of came to a head over Christmas, when we didn’t go out one night and then the next night we were out we went over to them in the night club and we were completely blanked, not make feel welcome or wanted at all….I have another friend who used to hang around with this group and he said the same thing happened to him. He said one of them doesn’t even say hello to him now….
    I wouldn’t mind if they were all teenagers, all are in their mid-30's, some even married….im in a small town so its hard to try avoid this group...
    I don’t where to go from here, do I even bother anymore with this lot or keep at it hoping they will come around and accept that I've finally met someone….
    Any views would be great....

    Jesus OP, thats some bad bunch there, its almost sounds like a group of meerkats - only the dominant pair are allowed to breed :eek::D
    I would give it a while longer first and then call out your "buddy" as to what he thinks should happen ie should you be allowed to have a gf at all or is it this specific girl he/they object to.
    If it continues, your only option will be to leave this group of friends or even better, organise stuff yourself with the other members and isolate this bollox and his gf.
    Best of luck.

    Cheers Johnr1
    They are hard work as a group alright…
    Havent had much contact with them since…
    Sent a text to each of them on New Years, wishing them all a happy new years….got replies from them all. But the 'leader' sent me a one word reply...not sure how much more engery I want to put into making a effort with him…it just seems to fall on deaf ears….
    Im not sure how much of a friend I mean to them if going out and getting hammered is how they measure my friendship!!
