Question - (3 September 2008) 1 Answers - (Newest, 3 September 2008)
A female India age 36-40, anonymous writes:

Hi all,

I am going out with this guy and am madly in love him and so is he. We are very happy together.

We have some common friends. But they are closer to him than i am - they are his best friends. The reason being for me being distant from them is that, we had some tiffs in the past - nothing too serious, but not insignificant either.

Now, my b/f expects me to be on good terms with them all and forget the past. He does not force me to do so - but he wants me to be REALLY very friendly with them and get close to them and stuff.

I cannot force myself to like someone esp when we've had some problems in the past. Not that i have grudges against them - but i cannot really be as friendly with them as he wants me to be.

But I have attempted this intermittently for a very long time (for the 2 yrs that me and my b/f have been going around for) - just so that i can see him happy, but have not managed to completely break the walls of coldness on their side. They are civil with me but i have never felt the warmth i expect from a friend from their end and hence i cannot help feeling distant.

What do i do..i just wanna see my b/f happy!
