couple friends

i cant sleep so i thought i'd start a thread.

okay so this weekend am going clubbing with my mate and her mate and both of they're boyfriends, i tried to avoid this on my birthday i decided to cancel the night cause some of my mates couldnt make it and one of my closest friend had to go somewhere else. so i thought no way am i going to go with just them and this was my birthday. i always try hinting by saying stuff like "hey we should all just go out just us 6" so i make it clear and then guess what she does she invites her boyfriend and then she goes, oh since his coming i might as well invite his mate cause he wont have noone to chat to, and then she wants me to invite my boyfriend and i already told him its just us girls, i didnt want him there i am already with him on my bday but come on.

so this weekend she invited him again and i don't want to be there cause they're like those couples who either grinding on each other or arguing about her flirting.i cant cancel again as i was excited and cant pretend that am broke as i said i had money before she mentioned him. his a cool guy but when they're together its like get a room. i hated that i my birthday plans was changed just so she could find a reason to see him and i would have been happy just going out for ice cream and then going clubbing at night but noooooooooo lets go down south oh and he will be there,we might as well invite him. so yeah feel free to complain about your couple friends as much as you want as i did just needed to share the story and i cant sleep.

p.s once we went shopping and she invited him to come, what guy would go to manchester with 6 girls espically to primark.

Have you spoken to her about this? You said you said "just us 6" but maybe she doesn't realise how much you just want it to be the 6 of you.

It seems like she just wants to see her boyfriend all the time, maybe she doesn't feel right without him or something? Or peraps she's insecure about her relationship with him, as she can't seem to be without him. My old best friend was like that, she waned to see her boyfriend all the time as they had trust issues, and we drifted apart as a result.

Just talk to her about it, say that you hoped your birthday would have just you 6, as that's who you wanted to celebrate with, so maybe you could have a be-lated birthday celebration with those 6 people. If you make it clear that you just want the 6 of you to do something, and tell her how much it means to you, she shouldn't invite her boyfriend along.
