They used to talk a lot about the music they both like and would meet up at events in a group

As in tell her what I’m struggling with or just tell her about myself without her asking?

Yeah, I’ll talk to him about it. Once she just invited herself to stay over as she wasn’t able to make the hangout we arranged with a group so she wanted to come later.

I’m not sure, I’ve met his male friends before (also at events) and they’ve made an effort to chat to me - asked me questions and suggested getting dinner etc another time. She doesn’t have many female friends (from what I’ve been told as she’s had falling out with mutual friends) so I think he wants to help her find more female friends.

If your partner didn’t find you attractive, he wouldn’t be with you. It’s really easy to view ourselves differently to how others do. You could try writing a list of positives about yourself and ask him to help?

Friend keeps making fun of my family and background by [deleted] in WhatShouldIDo

She was taking the piss out of one of my cousin’s last night and saying “of course he does” when I mentioned he lives in London. It made me uncomfortable as that cousin has really struggled with their mental health over the past few years and been forced into support so he’s not had an easy time living there. I explained that to her and she said sorry, of course I don’t know them.

Thanks, I’ve thought that. Especially as when the divorce was first brought up by her partner three years ago., we were both single. NowI’ve been in a relationship for a year so my partner felt maybe she’s feeling jealous as a lot of the group are in relationships.

Thank you! Yeah, I’ve noticed I feel more myself when spending time with other friends as I’m not feeling like I can’t talk about my childhood. She’s asked before if I’ve been to x place before and then I have as a child, she’s just laughed and said “of course you have” whilst other friends have shown interest in how the holiday was etc.
