am I being unreasonable?

Ok so a couple of weeks ago this guy that I like tried to pull me, and we've gone out before but it was quite a few months ago. One of my friends, who knew that he'd recently tried to pull me and that we'd gone out pulled him a couple of nights ago. Is it unreasonable that I'm really annoyed with them both? I just feel a bit upset that I wouldn't do that to her.

quit whining. its a free world and he and she is free to do whatever they wish.

you know what? i don't think it's that unreasonable.
everyone has their 'rules' and this is one of yours, and she's overstepped the mark.
talk to her about it - make it clear that you wouldn't have done the same to her. you can't forget your ideals just because of someone else. but you should still try keep an open mind - it's unlikely she'll take your opinion softly.

You don't have any "rights" to him per se, but I would definately be a bit annoyed. Especially at your friend as she knew you liked him :mad:

thanks for your advice, I know it is a bit trivial but guess the best approach is to talk to her about it.

Could be worse you could of pulled him then thought he genuinally liked you then found out he pulled alot of other people, you should feel sorry for your mate..

I'd be a little annoyed with her, but if he tried to pull you and you turned him down, as it seems, then he's perfectly free to pull someone else. It was you who rejected him, so he probably doesn't know you like him.

If she knew you were still interested, then that's not on. I definitely wouldn't consider that proper friendship behaviour. I don't believe in friends competing over girls/guys.

However if she knew that you turned him down, both of them are going to think that you weren't interested. So I'm not sure what you can reproach them for... They're not in your head, now are they?

Why are you annoyed if you really do not want this guy? You should wish them both well.
