You’re bff’s could be indirectly ruining your relationship
with some subtle actions that you may not notice. Though
this goes two ways, sometimes we could be blind and love
the wrong person and they might just want to be good
friends and save us and also sometimes, well, they just
want to pour sand in your garri.
1. THEY THINK YOUR DATE ISN’T GOOD ENOUGH: Ever
been here? You date someone you really like but your
friends think your date’s obnoxious or ugly? At times like
these, you may start wondering yourself if you’ve made
the wrong choice. And once you start thinking, it’s easy to
mentally turn even a perfect partner into an ugly hag.
2. THEY TALK ABOUT YOUR EX’S WHEN THE NEW DATE IS
AROUND: Past relationships are always sensitive. When
you and your date are hanging out with your friends, do
your friends constantly talk about your exes or about the
way you used to behave around an ex just to have a
laugh?
3. THEY ENCOURAGE YOU TO CHEAT: Your friend may love
one night stands, but they really shouldn’t be trying to
convince you to do the same when you’re in a
relationship. It’s easy to be manipulated by friends you
trust, but sometimes you need to space yourself from
these kinds of friends who don’t want your romantic
relationships to evolve into something better.
4. THEY DISRESPECT YOUR LOVER: Do you feel like your
friends ignore your new lover or treat them disrespectfully
while hanging out together? If you feel it, chances are, it’s
true. When your friends disrespect your date, it reflects
badly on you as a lover.
5. AND THEY DISRESPECT YOU WHEN YOUR LOVER IS
THERE: Do your friends treat you disrespectfully when
you’re with your date? Your friends should help you
impress your date and win a lover over, not make you look
bad. If your friends put you down in front of your lover,
they’re probably jealous or annoyed.
6. THEY EVEN FLIRT WITH YOUR LOVER: There are bad
friends and then there are worse. Friends who flirt with
your new date behind your back are the worst kind. If your
friend tries to put you down, or calls up your lover and
speaks for hours when you’re not around, there’s a good
chance that your friend is looking for ways to break both
of you up and enter the picture.
7. THEY FLIRT WITH YOU WHEN YOUR PARTNER IS
THERE: This is something you’ll have to deal with
immediately. Do any of your friends of the opposite s*x
like you or try to flirt with you in front of your new date? It
doesn’t matter if your flirty friend hits on you on facebook
or on the streets, it’s still going to make your new lover
feel awkward and insecure.
