Cruel isn't it, it all comes from a real insecurity in these people that do this, and I reckon both women and men are guilty of this.
My boyfriend is very sceptical if I'm starting to make friends with a guy, he reckons most just want down my pants or cause other trouble, I reckon he's right. I don't think he has a problem about female friends, he doesen't want me to be lonely and often introduces me to females he thinks I might get along with. My boyfriend is also quite lonely himself, can't deal with alot of the culture and how people act socially here in Norway, and I understand, people always seem to play some game here instead of just being genuine, it's like they never grew up from high school.

Anyway Lonelyheart I have the same exact problem that you have, so I'm afraid I don't have any real advice, I feel like I've tried everything but nothing works. I can't be bothered thinking there is something wrong with me anymore, and I kind of settled with the hope that a good friendship will come one day.

yep. ur dead on

Yep women do these things to and it's not gender specific but, this thread is for a young women!

young women tend to not always see the under currents of the incidents that occur in their life and are often manipulated by guy's who no how to play the game! But this doesn't mean that all guys are mischief, it just means that a female is best to suss a guy out before being lead in any way, anywhere, by him!

same goes 4 young men in reverse

Let's just say it goes the same for all the unhealthy, insecure people

lonelyheart, yea you have to becareful about getting to close to the boyfriends of your friends.. my little sister and her bestfriend have fought several times over the very same thing.. n even though they work it out, it always comes up again and again, leading to a relationship with lots of quarreling (but they enjoy quarreling so that's diff.). Point is becareful, you will be okay though, and you will make more friends.. I'm sure of it.

the rest of this thread reminds me of my parents though.. cept my dad is more or less like 'I don't like you having friends, you'll spend the whole day chatting. lawsh you could chat' to my mom.. he doesn't try anything deceptive just says 'u don't need friends you have me to take care of' lol.. quite funny really!
