| So you wife is bubbly and lovely, and his wife is a stuck up bit**? Yeah, I wonder why. And now, she might have thought of you two as a possible item? Thank God, I am not a millennial, or at least a needy, self centered millennial like this one. Here is what we X-geners and people before us did, we minded our own GD business and didn't pine over best friends. |
| BTW, why did you post this in Family Relationships thread? |
NP, but On this board, it’s probably the most practical place for this to go. |
nope. this should be in a relationship forum. but for OP, his BFF feels like a family. |
| I think this is my favorite dcum thread. Troll or clueless but it's precious. Annual couples hangout. Shoot me now. Added baby. I am not wasting my vacation on that. I tolerated you, my dear OP. |
| They are just not into you OP. Just accept it and move on. Keep seeing friend alone if that works. DH and I have “couple friends” and we have his friends and my friends, meaning we see them mostly 1:1. |
|
Op you shouldn’t be spending so much time on relationships with people who flake out on you and don’t meet your expectations of what you would like the friendship to look like. You’re fighting an uphill battle.
I don’t think anyone in this scenario is right or wrong, it just is what it is. |
|
Your only choice now is to go on that vacation!
Let go of any vexation with the friend. They’re doing what makes them happy, so be happy for them. (But take note that you won’t make this mistake in the future.) |

Does this have to be "couple" thing? I mean, I am all for letting my husband have a fun weekend with his BF. Do I need to come along with my husband? Why? I mean, I'd go if my husband asked me, but I will stay maybe 1 hr at most. It's not like I don't like BF's wife or anything, I just don't see and need to bond with BF' wife just because she is husband BF's wife.
In retrospect, would you meet your wife's BF's husband on a family/couple weekend gathering, all day/hours long and you know it your wife's BF's husband and you don't click at all. |
|
Just go with your wife and have fun with her.
You clearly do not like your BF's wife and that is probably not a big old mystery to her. |
Yes, "camping". Or maybe "hunting". Actually no, given the time of year, "fishing" maybe. |
Exactly. |
| I am starting to think that BF does not stand for best friend. Perhaps something more explicit? |
| wow, the homophobes really come out, don't they?! |
