Mutual friends. Both started seeing each other exclusive a few months ago. I more good friends with him, she is in the circle of friends. Girl was chasing him for a while. Him I know wants to take it slow. Likes her, but not as into her as she is him.

Start of relationship gushing posts. He know stops interacting. He has confided in me he is not too sure about the future. Likes her but she is rushing him. He is more guarded and I independent, she adores him.

She gushed about him on her birthday, a few weeks ago, saying he brought happiness when down and how much she adores him. Now the post has been deleted. She now putting up posts saying she is feeling sorry for herself and no one cares. Sort of attention grabbing.

Assuming all is not going well in the relationship. He said all he did was not go round to see her as was busy with work. She is now tagging me in posts. Asking to speak to him. She is not telling me anything. Just asking to speak to him, as I know what is wrong.

I really don’t. Told her not getting involved.

What would you do?

Tell him to talk to his girlfriend and back away from both of them fast. Are they both teenagers?

Not get involved? Tell her you aren't a Relate counsellor. Presumably you aren't Xmas Grin

Nope. Just a friend. We always know the state of their relationship with the attentions
Posts. Didn’t realise it had been deleted till she started posting need to think things.

I don’t think he realised either. Needy people

What?!! Sounds like a couple of 15 year olds. There’s nothing to think about here - back away and don’t get involved. Block her on social media / block them both on social media / take a break completely from social media and feign ignorance.

I can't believe you're asking.

Keep out of it obviously, like most adults would.

BakedTattie · 18/12/2020 23:31

Why do you even care?

AIMD · 18/12/2020 23:32

Reply to her tag telling her to stop tagging you and to speak to her himself.

What a weird situation.

Confused

You are MASSIVELY overinvolved

Seafog · 18/12/2020 23:36

Beak out
Back away

My mantra is ‘not my monkeys, not my circus’

Tierrasfuente · 18/12/2020 23:41

I'd have unfollowed them both weeks ago.

@Thedarknightsaredrawingin one of my favourite sayings this.

Why would you even pause to tell someone no to getting involved in this.
