So I have posted my weird teenage girl problems before and have gotten a lot of really great help because I know a lot of you have been through the same thing and I can take your advice feeling confident that you know what you are talking about. I had a thread about being in love with my best friend, but it turned out I was just going through separation issues. Now I have more friend drama.
Ok, so I have my first boyfriend post weight-loss and he is absolutely amazing( Seth). He knows about my former self and completely accepts it and makes me feel so beautiful and good about myself, something I have wanted my whole life, I DO feel beautiful with him, and he actually says I'm hot! Never have I ever been called hot! So long story short, he's amazing and I like him a lot. Ok, so my problem is that some of my close friends hate him. My best friend in Orlando likes him just because he knows how much I like him, and that is all I want out of my other friends. But there are two who wont even give him a chance! The one (Mack) I dated before I lost weight, I mentioned him in my last post for his verbal abusiveness. And my mother and a few others have said that he is so against my boyfriend because he is sorry he dumped me because I have lost weight and that he still has feelings for me, I'm not sure about that. And the other friend (Katie) says a lot of things about my boyfriend, for example: He puts up a wall (meaning she has never tried to talk directly to him, but the same is for Seth), he reminds her of her grandfather who hurt her emotionally a lot over the years, that he has to be right all the time (they both want to be right all the time, not just him), that she "may be jealous" because she has never had a boyfriend, etc. I understand that they don't have to get along, but before my boyfriend it was me, Mack, and Katie hanging out any chance we got, so it would make things a lot easier if we could all get along together.
So now I was making plans for us four to drive down to watch the night launch in new smyrna, which would probably be an hour drive, and Mack and Katie have both flat out said "I don't want to be in the car with him that long" What am I supposed to do?? How can I fix this?? anytime I bring Seth up they both get attitudes, and its not fair because this is my second boyfriend and I want someone I can talk to about him. I have tried talking to them, but they just turn it all on me and Seth, they say they want time with just me and that Seth is not an easily liked guy, and I can never say what I want to say, I just let them talk. What is worse though, is that Katie always hated Mack for dumping me, and Mack could never stand Katie. But all of a sudden I am told that they are talking bad about me and seth all the time and now they talk more with each other, than me to either of them put together.
I don't know what to do, I know that this is only my second BF and that it probably wont go anywhere and that I should choose friends first, but what if they keep me from my true love?? I just to be happy. I apologize for my long, sort of confusing post.
I need advice, thanks for reading.
