Luckly we not talking about nude or scandalous pictures. But a simple one he took of her while we all where hanging out with my group. I think it would have been different if this was a picture with the whole group in it instead of only my friend in it. He said that since we ordered a torn of drink my friend just ended up being in the photo he took of the drinks. The same photo that he uploaded on snapchat story when he barely even posts me on his snapstory. And u could barely see the torn of drinks in it since my friend was the one shining in the picture. And shes pretty as hell to. But he even went his way to save this photo into his album wich then i asked why he has a pic of her?

@Dontlletmedownbruce he knows her trough me and the rest of my group. He usally talks to my guy friends, i would not see them as friends more acquantance since he only see her trough me but talk to my other guy friends trough socials, but he dosn’t have pictures of of my other guy friends. Like they talk a bit but i would not consider them being friends. Same with his friends are litteraly his since he only meet up with them without me

Dump him before he tries to take over your friendship group.

@Everanewbie idk i wanna be wrong but its kinda telling me that he is lying about not being a little bit attracted to her. He is kinda a little bit to friendly with her before when i told him it was making me uncomfortable.. especially when they where talking and didn’t inlcude me in their conversation

What’s he meant to say. Let’s assume she really is as attractive as you say. Then almost any man might find her attractive but they’re not meant to say that. I find Gary Barlow attractive but if my fella asked me then obviously I would say no to save his feelings. You really do not want men telling you the absolute truth all the time.

What is a "RTFT"?

If you think OP has answered the question "What is a "torn of drinks?" please tell us what you think the answer is. Then we can stop asking.

Thank you.

Edited

RTFT means Read the fcking thread or at the very least the OP updates where a picture of what they are on about is clearly there i had no idea what it was neither.

@DonnaBanana thats true because i don’t need him to show that he thinks my friend is attractive by posting her ect. Like i may find other people attarctive to but i don’t sit there and post them out or being obvious about it. Like its enough with my guy friends finding her cute and being obvious about it but my bf dosn’t need to follow that line with them

I would be pissed - being the chill, cool girlfriend always came back to bite me.

LightandBreezy · 27/05/2025 20:35

@DavidsFavouriteGirl the OP answered the question by attaching this picture to their second message, as was stated earlier. Hence the RTFT comment. You wouldn't have needed to ask if you had read her comments properly.

Kathrinebubble · 27/05/2025 20:35

@IberianBlackout oh yea it does..
I litteraly tell him right away since im the one he should be showing off not my friend. So i got tired of years of prev relationships being a cool gf who never gets jealous or uncomfortable. Now i tell them right away

@HuffleMyPuffle Not as i know. He moved it into his original album with photos gallery

Surely photos are just automatically in your photo gallery? Thats sort of the point.

Not on Snapchat I think? I think if you take a snap it disappears unless you save it down

@Sofiewoo he took it trough snapchat camera and then it was suddenly in his gallery not Snapchat.. but the one he took of me wasn’t there at all. So he only saved the one with my friend on it

He probably spends a lot of time looking at torn online.

Zov · 27/05/2025 21:13

I'm glad you've talked to him @Kathrinebubble I hope his behaviour improves, and I wish you well. Flowers

Are you Irish @Kathrinebubble? I’m reading your posts in some of my family’s voices in my head.

No she didn't.

The picture shows a "cocktail serving tree" also known as a "drinking tower".

I have read the fucking thread and I am still no wiser as to what a "torn of drinks" is.

For your information, the picture shows a a "cocktail serving tree" also known as a "drinking tower", not a "torn of drinks".

So, you still have no idea, I neither do I...

LightandBreezy · 28/05/2025 01:06

@DavidsFavouriteGirl Let's go through this again - OP was asked what a torn of drinks was / if she was referring to a ton of drinks. OP replied by posting a picture of an object, and wrote 'it's like a lil set up'. Therefore it's reasonable to conclude that the object posted is what the OP was referring to as a 'Torn'. I understand that you haven't heard that object referred to by that term before, and I haven't either, however the OP absolutely did clarify what she meant when she referred to a torn of drinks. I genuinely can not understand how you could still be baffled by this and claim to be none the wiser.

GarlicPile · 28/05/2025 01:09

OK, I was just boring enough to look it up, and torn is indeed the Swedish for tower.

I assume that if you're in a Swedish or Swedish-themed bar, a torn of drinks is how you buy a round of cocktails.

MsDogLady · 28/05/2025 06:02

He is kinda a little bit to friendly with her before when I told him I was uncomfortable.. especially when they were talking and didn’t include me in their conversation

@Kathrinebubble, your wandering-eyed BF is treating you with great disrespect and disregard. He has a crush on your friend and is acting on it. He took that photo of her, saved it, and featured her in his story so that all and sundry would be impressed that he was out with her. [She will also notice his adoration.] Not only were you excluded from his story, but it sounds like you were also blanked when they were having their cozy chat.

Why would you settle for this guy who drools over your friend in your presence and uses her picture to score points and to revisit in private?

Want better for yourself, @Kathrinebubble.

Whats the rest of his behavior like? Is he nice or is he eyeing up other girls etc..
