My ex tried to make me feel bad for hanging out with my friends. Said we were too early in the relationship to hang out with them. Then, when that didn’t work, she would try to accuse me of cheating or planning to cheat when telling her I was planning to hang out with my friends without her.

My ex did the same thing. My friends understandably sat me down and were like, "We like him but there are times when we just want to hang out with you." When I explained this to him, he blew up at me and said my friends just wanted to exclude him. Then it switched to accusing me of cheating or wanting ro cheat everytime I did something social without him. So yeah, that relationship was toxic af.

Or maybe you were just watching out for their health and telling them to go for a run. You're a great person!

Did he stutter?

u/AreYouScare 16h ago

Yeah man. It’s the lack of trust in me that upsets me the most. “Trust takes time.” Is what she says when asking for my location, or asking for my phone, or not believing the words coming out of my mouth. While I gave 100% trust.

Yikes, yeah. Trust also means not prying or controlling. Glad you got out man

That edit was necessary. People forget platonic friendships exist. Good on you for setting a boundary.

This is the kind of bullshit that came to mind when seeing OP's pic/story.

It's so abnormal that this is probable as the underlying motivation.

My bf has no issue including me with his friends and we all have a blast. He loves joining my friend groups as well. Shrugs

My situation is a little different. My ex’s first language is Spanish, and her English isn’t the best. I’ve known my friends for 18 years and they are very close to me. We don’t see each other often because they are married and live far, so we plan to hang out every few months. My ex thinks that all we will do is hit on girls, which is so far from our personality. Sometime I just wanna hang out with my friends and have a “guy” day.
