My friend and my boyfriend

Ohhdeerohderr · 10/04/2024 19:43

I’ve been with my boyfriend for a year and half no issues at all until today my best friend posted a picture of her son on her lap caption it he never lets me out of his sight.
ny boyfriend decided to private message her saying nor would I

bow my best friend is in a abausive relationship which he knows about and he says he did it because of that
however I feel like there’s a element of flirting well my friend has taken it that way. I’m so confused on what to do he’s currently sat in the front room and I’m in the bath and I have no idea what to say when I walk in or where to go from here . I’m pregnant also and he has never done anything out of line before but it just seems to have put me in a horrible position.

Your friend is right. Grim. I’m sorry. Don’t make any decisions about work after the baby arrives that financially disadvantage you, if you stay with him now. Especially because you’re not married - which might be financially advantageous to you personally, but usually isn’t.

That's totally out of order. I'd be livid.

Candleabra · 10/04/2024 19:48

Eww grim. And even more so if she’s in an abusive relationship. It sounds like a threat.

Erm no, that's not okay. It's not even the comment, it's the private massaging of a comment like that that would be my focus.

Wow, no way is it an attempt to make her feel better because of the relationship she's in. It's a clear flirty compliment.

Oh dear OP.

I'm sorry but I don't think he's a good'un.

Op firstly please don't stress you're pregnant and you need to make sure you look after yourself . I'm thinking that what you're boyfriend did was completely out of line what ever his intentions were. Also if someone is in an abusive relationship why would sending an inappropriate message help her ... that's even more awful position to put the woman in let alone how he has made you feel. He is completely in the wrong. Can I assume you found out because your friend told you ? Don't doubt yourself. What he has done is absolutely stupid and completely offensive. I don't know who has voted on here that you're being unreasonable but you are absolutely not being unreasonable. Don't take his pathetic response , don't let him gaslight you.. let him know if he's so bored and needs to private message other women he can leave and message them as much as he likes.
