grecian Posted March 18, 2011 Posted March 18, 2011 Never happened to me but i'm curious... have you ever broken up because your lover didn't like your friends and felt he didn't "fit" in your circle of friends, or you didn't feel you "fit" in his pool of friends??
Eeyore79 Posted March 18, 2011 Posted March 18, 2011 I dumped one guy because I didn't like his friends - more specifically, I didn't like him hanging out with his ex girlfriends, and I didn't like the fact that he expected me to also hang out with them as part of his group of friends. That's probably not quite what you're referring to though. I was once dumped because my ex felt that I didn't fit in with his friends, mostly because I came from a disadvantaged background and he and his friends all came from wealthy backgrounds and went to private schools etc. I'm intelligent, polite and well spoken, so he initially didn't realize how poor my upbringing was. His friends and family were extremely critical when they found out I wasn't wealthy, and they told him I was a gold digger and he deserved a better quality woman, so he dumped me. I found it hilarious that when I eventually qualified as a doctor he wanted to get back together because I was suddenly acceptable in his social group; even his parents (who previously thought I was trash) encouraged him to reconcile with me because I was a doctor. Some people's shallowness knows no bounds
