To think friend may be jealous of new boyfriend?

New boyfriend cancelled going out drinking with his mates because he had a spot outbreak.

  • This makes him vain

His parents helped him out buying his house

  • This makes him stuck up
  • He has photos (5 years old and uploaded at that time too) on his Instagram ) of him in modelling type photos when he was bodybuilding (he’s not like now and has a lovely squishy tummy Grin )
  • This makes him up himself

She’s never met him and I’ve never once said anything bad about to give her a biased view.

Either that or she fancies him, the old double bluff that she can't stand him.

DisplayPurposesOnly · 08/09/2019 19:16

She has a point about the spot outbreak though Grin

FreddieIsKing · 08/09/2019 19:17

But she can’t not stand him because she’s never met him.

If she's never met him then yes, it sounds like she's envious. What's her own love life like?

Maybe .. I sometimes get the odd very bad outbreak and it gets me down and makes me feel self conscious talking to people. Just because he’s s man I don’t see why it’s any different.

I genuinely don’t know. Boyfriend of a year and is always going on about how amazing he is and how he’s the one who wants commitment

But then she’ll also say she’s looks through his messages on his iPad when he’s not there.

I’ve met him a handful of times and he’s always been pleasant to me and is affectionate towards her.

She 100% fancies him.

If he has really bad acne then I can understand him not going out but to cancel for a few spots does seem a bit vain.

LemonAddict · 08/09/2019 19:43

How does she know this stuff about him? From you. Just stop telling her.

Crinkle77 · 08/09/2019 19:43

However she does seem a bit nasty to slate him to you.

pinkyredrose · 08/09/2019 19:45

You don't have to meet someone to fancy them.

FreddieIsKing · 08/09/2019 19:57

But we’re friends and see each other regularly. We talk about our lives. I know sometimes this seems taboo on mumsnet but ...

I also wouldn’t have known her reaction until she actually said something.

And I've never met Tom Hardy but I've seen his Insta and I 100% fancy him 😂

LemonAddict · 08/09/2019 20:03

But, that his parents helped him out buying his house is none of her business, it’s nothing she needs to know.

Al the examples you’ve given are not not talking about your life or new relationship, they’re talking about his.

None of it, especially his finances and how he bought his house, is any of her business and it’s not yours to gossip about either.

Aprillygirl · 08/09/2019 20:07

He cancelled a night out because of spots?! That is vain isn't it?

Hamsterian · 08/09/2019 20:09

Sorry but she has a point! LOL

PennyNotSoWise · 08/09/2019 20:11

Tom Hardy has instagram?? Excuse me for a long while.
