Boyfriend's best friend is upsetting me...?
My boyfriend's best friend has been getting under my skin lately. She lives in his home state of Connecticut and we live in Washington, DC so I haven't met her yet. However, when he posts a status to Facebook, no matter what it says she always has to add something about him coming home. For instance the other day his status was "All we do is meant to help mold us into the people we become and I'm happy with who I am now." Her response was "You'll be happier when you're home." She constantly does this on every single status, even when what she says has nothing to do with what he says. I realize that he is friends with her and I wouldn't want to stand in the way of any of that because he has known her much longer than we have been together. However, I feel like she has more invested in the relationship than he does. I truly believe that she loves him and these comments are a stab at me. Am I wrong? Again, she and I have never met. They also have never been together and he does not have any feelings for her. Please help...I need to know whether I am wrong or not. Should I be letting this bother me?
Also, how should I handle meeting her without causing a fight with my boyfriend? We are going to have to meet at Christmas and I honestly cannot handle seeing her hang on him, especially after this irritating episode. I don't want to fight with anyone, especially his best friend.

Well, you're probably right about the her loving him, no doubt about that. If I loved someone, I would like them to be physically close to me as possible at all times. With that said, I think the real question is, how does he feel about the extra comments she adds to his status and updates. If he didn't even know she was doing it, or he thinks they're nothing, then let it go. Lose a couple of men, but not the ship. NOW, if he does have feelings for this girl and he 'likes' the comments, red flag, time to start pressing for more info. Find this out first, then react according. I don't think that's too much to ask of him, and he'll understand.

The same thing was happening to my friend. She was seeing this guy and his friend would constantly post messages on his status updates. When she met her in person, this girl was a super byatch and purposely ignored my friend and tried everything to get this guy alone with her. Obviously, it didn't work.
Don't worry. She just seems desperate in the end and you're man will stay by you if he's a decent guy.

As long as it's only a one sided infatuation, then there shouldn't be a problem. It would be annoying but at the end of the day, it's making her look a little desperate!
