Alright, so my boyfriend and I have been together for more than 7 months.
I love him so much. :] And I'm very happy with him.

Today, I saw my best friend. She's been in boston for school for a long time, so I was super excited to see her again.
We just invited a bunch of people (whom I also haven't seen for a long time), and my boyfriend ended up tagging along, to just chill. This was the first time my best friend really got to meet and hangout with my boyfriend.
Also, my best friend recently broke up with her ex of almost 2 years. So right now, she's single.

So today, while we were all hanging out, my best friend was being SUPER flirty to my boyfriend. And we've been best friends since junior high, so I know when she's interested in a guy or not. Anyway, during the hangout, I felt super uncomfortable, and I tried to hold my boyfriend's hand as much as possible to subtly say "he's mine." (I know, kinda stupid)
It's weird, because my best friend is known to be getting all the guys. (she has like 10 guys after her right now) And she's also a great singer (like my boyfriend), and a volleyball player (like my boyfriend). Yeah, because they have so much in common, I got even more nervous and uneasy about it.
After the hangout, I told my boyfriend my thoughts, and even he agreed that he felt uncomfortable because it seemed like my best friend was coming on to him.

I'm not sure if i should tell her or not. My boyfriend loves me, and I know it. And he told me I shouldn't say anything to her because he's not interested nor attracted in her, and also since she's my best friend, I'm sure she won't make a move on my boyfriend.
However, it still is kind of uncomfortable, and I wish she would stop being flirty towards him.

So should I bring up the subject on her or not?
I am loved ♥

If you have enough faith in your boyfriend, it wouldn't matter if 100 girls hit on him.

Yes i agree. I have total faith in my boyfriend.
I know he won't leave me for my best friend.
But it's just WEIRD that my best friend is being flirty with my boyfriend....

Don't bring it up directly, but indirectly ^^;
Like.., just mention about your problems to your bestfriend
If she really was your bestfriend, then she would understand it right?
So ask politely and stuff.

Having a talk with your boyfriend was a definite, I know that feeling and it sucks when your boyfriend don't know how you feel. I think you should bring it up, she's your best friend and conversations like that shouldn't be awkward, it's not like your telling her to back off, your just telling her you feel uncomfortable about it. If your boyfriend has no feelings or any interest in her, you shouldn't worry about it, if he says he loves you, then I'm sure he does. Like you said you know she won't make a move on your boyfriend, so a talk with her wouldn't be so bad. I really think talking to your boyfriend about it was the best thing to do. I wish i did that a year ago! lawl, would've saved a lot of pain, I've experienced and i didn't make right choices, so now i don't have best friend anymore. That's why i think you should talk to her, and see how she feels about it.

Maybe it's just because she just broke up that she's acting this way.
But if I were you, I would still have a conversation with her alone about how you're feeling.
My boyfriend and my best friend are like sworn enemies so I've never experienced this.

Your best friend is being really messed up :S
NO best friend should EVER hit on their best friend's boyfriend.
That is a major no no.
It's good that you trust your boyfriend, but you need to confront your best friend and tell her what she's doing is wrong and making you feel uncomfortable.
If she's really your best friend, she'd apologize and back off.
If she gets mad at you then just stop hanging out with her for a while.
She's probably just really lonely and in need of some male attention.

What kind of best friend is that? I don't care how flirty her personality is, that's just wrong. My best friend is naturally flirty, but she has never acted in any way inappropriately to my boyfriend, so that's not an excuse.

Confront her and tell her that it's making you uncomfortable, and if she really is a best friend, she'd back off.
*Insert some wise words here*

i'm glad that ur able to communicate with your bf. I would have done the same thing.
I agree that your bff is kind of strange...and in front of you too. It's rather disrespectful. Yes, she might be feeling lonely and in need of male attention.
It might be uncomfortable but you should some how confront her and tell her how you feel. ^^

she should know better honestly. Instead of saying your boyfriend wouldn't leave you, I think we should be more disappointed in her. Some best friend, my best friend would never do that to me. He wouldn't dare.

subtly bring it up with her, like "haha so what was up with you and (your bf)? you were being pretty friendly! ohmy.gif"

either that or flat out ask her about it

Tell her to back off (nicely) because she's making the situation uncomfortable for both you and your boyfriend. Hopefully she'll understand.

Mm, if it makes you feel better you should tell her.
I mean she is your best friend and she will have to understand your feelings too.
Just be honest with her because you want her to be honest with you right?
Subtly bring it up but be serious at the same time so it wont be a best friend joke/teasing.
Just go: "Hey... how you acted to my boyfriend the other day.. I felt really uncomfortable.. :\"
And see what she has to say.
Well since you know your boyfriend's opinion you should know your best friend's too.
Good luck! smile.gif

Ahhhh I've been in that situation. TALK TO HER! Tell her it's not cool to be flirty with your boyfriend. SERIOUSLY, she won't stop on her own unless you TELL her how you feel, or your boyfriend totally ignores her (which he probably won't do since she's your friend and he doesn't want to be caught in this).

even though your bf said not to... you should still confront your best friend.
if your bf might says something like 'oh.. why didn`t respect my opinion and not tell her about this'.. just tell him beforehand that you want to talk to her and that you do respect his opinion. talking to her can also strengthen your friendship w/ each other. she might not even like him in that way.. but just tell her that it makes your uncomfortable.
*sigh* your best friend should know better. she should know when to flirt and when to turn it off b/c i have a friend who`s kind of like your best friend and i never confronted her.. now i regret it. cuz every time i got a boyfriend.. i feel like she`s going to flirt w/ him & it drives me insane. ><
good luck! :0)

i'm not sure what your personality is like, but it sounds like you're not very confrontational, especially when it might result in an argument. but in this case, the best thing to do is to tell her to stop. this is also a good opportunity to see whether or not she respects you and your relationship. =)

if this is a one time thing, don't think too much into it, but if it happens again... punch her. just kidding! =p

First of all, shes not your best friend if shes going to try to take your boyfriend away from you. I'm sure he dont like her. She seems to be those people who always wants the attention on themself. I say, you get rid of here, if those are her intentions.
