The Race Sailing

By admin, September 7, 2009 11:55 pm

What do I do? Woman is bad-mouthing me. My boyfriend says people should not tell me what she says about me?

This woman used to be my friend. Then she set me up with a guy that she ‘did not want’. Now she is extremely jealous saying that I am not a good girl friend to him. She says I am lousy crew for his sail boat races and am very lazy and do not want to do anything on the boat except tan and read a book.

She should know me better that that. I wear 85 SPF Sun-block from Neutrogina and try hard not to get tan or burn. Also, reading during a sailing race? Huh? Never happened. Have no idea why she would say that except her own jealous imagination.

That is really a minor annoyance. The main problem is when I told my boyfriend about this, he was upset that someone would betray her “confidence” to me.

He claims he loves me and seems to be distancing himself from her (she used to be my friend!! I can not beleive it), but if he likes her, I do not want to be “the heavy” who forces an end to their relationship. But if they are that tight, I just can not be with him.

tell him, if he wants to be with her then thats fine. and tell him to choose. you or her.

if he chooses her, tell him that once he starts cheating, hes screwed and its over.

tell ur friend that shes the one that set u guys up, and if she wants him. she can have him.

and that will force him to choose between either of you guys.
