writes: Am I being spoilt and a pain? My Boyfriend of 7 years has asked a fellow dog walker to join us on our regular and special Fri nights out. I am sure their relationship is platonic but one can never be sure . I have met her on a few occasions and she is OK but to me Fri is for the two of us with a few exceptions and she is not one of them! I don't mind mid-week to meet up with her but I feel that I should be put first at weekends. I get the feeling she is quite lonely and looking for a fella and my boyfriend can be a soft touch and people do see him coming!! Thanks for reading my question. Reply to this Question Share |

I don't think that if your bf wanted to romance this girl, his best move would be ... bringing her along on a date with his official gf. And I am sure he realizes that too.
Any reason why occasionally a friend ( of his, or of yours ) should not be allowed to join your Friday night outings ?... Yes, I can imagine it's less romantic, but also think that normally , after 7 years, a couple is secure enough to give up a little bit of romance in favour of opening up socially ...

Yeah, I'm not seeing a big problem here. As long as you two still have some alone time date nights, a slightly inconvenient third wheel sometimes won't hurt.
Trust your gut. If you think it's something more, be careful. Otherwise remind him that you do like your special friday nights, but you don't mind having someone else tag along on occasion.

If you have been together 7 years surely you are comfortable enough to spend time with other people. Is it every Friday with her or just now and again?
