My GF and I have been dating a year, I graduated last year and she is a senior in high school now, and her best friend is now causing issues.

 

Six months into our relation we had a really bad fight, we ended things, took a few days and decided to keep trying. While there have been a few issues for the most part everything is fine, except her best friend.

 

I've only met her best friend about five times in our relationship, every time was before my GF and I's fight. Every time we did meet things were good, she seemed to like me alright and no issues at all.

 

Ever since the fight my GF has told me she doesn't like me at all, I kinda understood this, she's just looking out for her best friend and I'm the jerk boyfriend. I got that to a certain extent.

 

Recently my girlfriend has been complaining a lot about her, and also found out that she was talking behind her back about us. I stayed out of it for obvious reasons.

 

A few days ago my GF and I made plans to go to some event at her school (my old school too) and I was really looking forward to it, my GF seemed to be too. Few hours after making these plans I get a text from her saying her best friend will be there and that she doesn't want it to be awkward for me, she asked how I felt about the situation.

 

I kinda assumed she was hoping I'd be the bigger person and say I won't go, and I did just that. To be honest I was pissed that my girlfriend pretty much 100% fine with that. So I get upset and make pretty apparent that I am.

 

Here's the biggest questions I have,

 

Why in the world would a 18 girl threaten not to go to a school even just because her best friends boyfriend is going to be there, who she barely knows? Because that's exactly what her best friend did, threaten not to go If I did.

 

Today, my girlfriend and her are hanging out together before the event. See post a few she mad on Snapchat of her and the best friend having a great time together etc. Just the night before she told me she was pissed at her for acting this way? What the hell.

 

 

I don't know if it's actually possible that she really could not like me that much or my girlfriend is using that as an excuse for me not to go.

 

Opinions?

 

TL:DR - GFs best friend apparently hates me after barely knowing me, causing me not being able to go to a event with my GF.

It's a common obvious problem in these situations. Your GF tells her best friend everything about you including all of your bad habits. The friend has judged you from these stories and decided that she does not like you.

 

Guys tend to be more closed-lip about their GFs bad behavior and keep things from their friends because they fear it will make them look less of a man because they are not controlling the behavior.

I have a different question and I don't know if I'm a totally paranoid idiot or whatever for letting this thing bother me.

 

Right now my girlfriend is out with her best friend and a few other people including a few guys. The event at the school was tonight and I'm pretty sure they didn't go at all. Right now their at a pool having a great time and I'm super pissed, I don't know if that's crazy or not.

 

I'm not upset she's having a good time, I'm upset that all these other people can go with and what not but I'm not allowed to supposedly just because her best friend isn't cool with it. This is the second time in two weeks this exact thing has happened. I'm tired of feeling left out and hidden, I've told her how it bothers me but it hasn't changed

Have you been treating her right? If not, there you have it.
