Having MAJOR issues - please HELP!?

Hey,

I've known my best friend for at least ten years and we're extremely close. However, her new boyfriend is someone that I struggle to get along with (due to past issues). Recently, she confronted me, saying that she hates that we don't talk about the situation, but my issue is that she often doesn't want to hear my honest opinion about him because she knows I don't think much of him as a person. What do I do? continue to ignore the situation like "the elephant in the room" or do I tell her what I feel, despite her not liking what she hears? Please help, I really need your advice!

    This situation is exactly like teaching a child to listen..she may never like the idea of preaching or sermons but since you love ehr and you just want everything to be in good faith so you voice out and speak your mind...................tell her, dont worry after you tell her all what you are feeling, end it with a sentence that because you only care for her and that you are best friends no matter what, give her assurance that you will always be there for her..and if she feels bad towards you, its okay, give her space and time, Im sure she will realize it after all and your friendship will even become better..........ok??cheer up..and good luck!!

    Yikes... that's a toughie. If you tell her exactly what you think, then you risk loosing her friendship... she is most likely to side with her b/f. If you don't tell her exactly how you feel, then you have to keep that bottled up inside you, and "pretend" to get along with the whole situation. I'm not sure what to tell you sweetie...I guess you have to weigh both questions, and go with the one you're most comfortable with. Best of luck to you.

    Just be honest with her and say how you feel. At the end of the day your friends and that counts.

    I believe you need to be honest with her . You and her been friends way to long to not to open up about anything and everything. And if she is truly a friend then she will understand and respect your feelings about it.
