My Boyfriend Is Flirting With My Friend



Dear Lady. Ann:

I met this guy a year ago on Facebook. We both have a mutual friend on Facebook and he sent me a friend request, which I accepted. We started chatting back and forth and I started liking him – a lot. He is a good-looking man and I wondered how I got so lucky. We planned to meet but he said he had a lot of work to do, so I travelled to see him a few times. Sex was mind blowing. He knew just what to do and how to please me.

I have a group of friends and we share everything with each other. I sent a picture of my man into the group chat and all my girls were rooting for us. Although I wonder if he is exclusive with me or not at times, but I was hoping this would lead to something good in the long run. One of my girlfriends hinted that he was playing with my feelings and I initially got really upset. I thought she was saying he looked too good for me and that made me feel sad. But I later found out he had sent friend requests to a couple of my female friends, and some of them told me they refused it. I asked him why he was sending my friends friend requests and he said he just wanted to know my clique better, because I spoke about them a lot. I knew he was lying to me, but I kept going with him.

Now I just found out that one of my friends accepted his friend request and they have been chatting and flirting. I confronted her, and she didn’t even deny it. She said he wasn’t exclusive with me anyway. She and I are not the closest of friends, but we were friends enough for her to not do that to me. I confronted him again and he denied it. He says she sent him the friend request and has been trying to flirt with him, but he has refused. I don’t know what to believe anymore. Do you think he is telling the truth?
