writes: I need help I have a gf when she gets off of work she has either her niece,sister or bother or her ex husband niece texting her alot at times it gets annoying cause I feel like she cares for them more than she does me. And what makes it worse is when 2 of her male friends texts her and she sits there and texts them for 45 mins she tells me all they are is friends she met them on a dating site and even met them before i came into her life and that they are just friends but it's annoying to me at times i have mention this to her that it bothers me that I don't get her full attention cause of all the texting and she claims that she is spending time with me and that while she is that she can multi task to whoever is texting her but I don't feel like I have her full attention when she is texting. What should I do?

what she is doing by spending 45 minutes texting other men when she is with you is saying that you are not as important.
Me, I wouldn't like that, and would probably have walked away by now. You need to decide if you are prepared to spend your time being treated like this or if you would prefer to be doing something else. For me a good book or a walk, or even staying home alone and watching tv by myself would be preferable to being ignored while my so called partner exchanged texts with other men (or in my case women). Is this how you want to spend the rest of your life.
This is not multitasking, and even if it was, is she saying you are another task that needs to be dealt with?

reader, anonymous, writes (3 December 2010): How incredibly rude. How old is this woman?? If I were out with a woman who pulled that crap on me, I would simply pick myself up and walk away. If we were out together and I were driving, I'd text her from the car and tell her I'm leaving and to get in the car if she wanted a ride home. Then, I'd drop her off without a word. When I got home, I'd "text dump her". The male friend thing is a non-starter as well. It all boils down to respect. She clearly has very little for you to sit there and text male friends (or anyone else for that matter) while she's supposedly with you. How would she feel if you pulled that on her?
