    I understand both sides of this dilemma. I was once the girlfriend on the back burner feeling like I was second choice, and I have also been the girlfriend with a close guy friend, making my boyfriend feel like he was on the back burner. It happens. It's not necessarily a bad thing, because you can't blame him for having friends and being there for them, but you, as his girlfriend, have every right to question his values. His values need to be important to not just him, but YOU too. An intimate, exclusive relationship between a man and a woman is a special bond. And the way I see it, is having other friendships with the opposite sex is something that can come really close to destroying it. You are his MAIN girl. It's good that he cares about her and wants to be there to support her though hard times, but you don't know HER motives. If they have talked before about dating each other, then that means there are feelings there, but for whatever reason they have chosen not to move forward. She may not be intentionally trying to get in the way, but she needs to realize that she is treading on someone else's territory now. She may be jealous of your relationship and doesn't want to let go. She may be worried about losing her friendship with your boyfriend, so she's hanging on even more now. But she needs to back off. There has to be other friends she can turn to for advice. If she wants to remain friends with your man, she needs to be friends with YOU too. You are a couple, an item. That's just the way I see it. You are in a relationship because he is your everything. Hopefully this means that you are looking for something greater with him, marriage...family, yeah? He needs to agree and put himself in YOUR shoes. Would he appreciate it if you were close with another guy, tending to another guy's feelings and what not?

    but he is with her everyother day
    COME ON you said it!!!!!!! He is with her and not you!!!!!! He likes her and not you!!!!!!!! ACTIONS SPEAK LOUDER THAN WORDS!!!!!!!?????????????

    she txts him and calls him and when i call him he dnt answer but its like he is treating her like a girlfriend and not me
    Trust your gut instinct and see the picture for what it is........he likes her more than he likes you. Sorry but that is the truth, stop all the nonsense about him being there for her because she needs it...........thats a load of carp...........he is answering her call and not yours, he is there with her more than he is with you, your feelings are right and you need to get a grip before you are played around with even more.

    Have some self dignity and some pride and get yourself out NOW..........or go through life being the second choice "ooooooooh, but he is sooooo special ooooooooooh he is so great oooooooooh" --------yea so was the kebab I had last night but I don't have a relationship with it.

    Stop being the cog in their game and wake up!
    I am going to tell you what you don't want to hear!

    Jen welcome sweet, if a member gets mad it's because they care about people and so, in this case you

    Why is he the most amazing tihng that has ever happened to you?

    If he was a "nice" guy? Then, he would definately take your text messages and reply to you too wouldn't he? Isn't that what you expect, anyone would expect, not to be ignored?

    Secondly love, both have told you they were going to date, before you came into the picture, they really are telling you nicely, he actually picked the wrong one, I'm sorry sweet..And she is trying to tell you too...

    You argue every day, they have good communication every day, are you posessive in your opinion at all? In-secure in relationships? It's okay if you are, you are no orphan.... Be honest with yourself there.. Boys like the chace but they also like confidence.

    What should you do?

    What has he bought you
    How many times has he made you laugh
    How much time does he spend with you verses her


    It's been three months hun, what do you do? You dump him, now and work on yourself, you are beautiful tell yourself that and a good catch, you don't have a need to ever get jealous, or argue only love and be happy ...

    Whoa ... chill out on the CAPS LOCK and exclamation points there! Tough love is okay, screaming is not.

    OP, there's are a lot of possibilities here - your boyfriend could be telling the truth about everything, or he could be lying about everything, or any combination of lies or truth in between. Can you ever know for sure? Nope!
    So what you have to do is examine YOUR feelings (because you can be sure about those!) and whether or not you feel like this is acceptable in your relationship. If you need more of a time commitment, or you need him to answer the phone when you call, or any other thing - you should either be getting it or leaving. There is nothing wrong with asking for the things that you want in a relationship, or walking away if you're not getting it. And if the person you're with is not giving you what you need, then they aren't that perfect or amazing, right?
    Talk to your boyfriend, and let him know he's not living up to what you need in the relationship. If he's not willing to change, you have to be willing to walk.
    I hope everything turns out well, and remember, leaving a relationship that isn't right IS a happy ending!

    Well its gong to be hard for you if there is a third wheel.
    And here is the rub- his relationship may be stronger and more lasting with her because he is not having sex with her. This is because of the Coolidge effect.
    It causes mating pairs of any animal or human to loose interest in their mate for a week or two after Orgasm.(There is no genetic benefit to mating with the same partner repeatedly)
    You could look at trying Karezza with him of you like the look of the book.

    If he tells you he loves you and you're the only one for him, yet acts the other way, trust his ACTIONS. That is how most men operate. He probably does not intend to hurt you by being the one to break - up but by the way he is treating you, you are not his priority.

    He cares more of what his girl-friend feels than how his girlfriend (you) feels. If he cares enough, he will weigh his priorities and would compromise for your relationship, for you, the one he (supposedly) loves. Three months....or longer, they way he treats you or behaves in your relationship NOW will most likely be the same in the long run. Would you rather wait longer and stay in a relationship treated in a mediocre way? I'd say, do not be a doormat.
