The only thing is he feels like (and I know he's probably right) I don't make the effort to hang with or get to know his friends!In the past few months this has started to put a strain on our relationship and as I know I should've got to know them earlier on I hope that later is better than never. The only thing is that I'm quite shy around his friends and can sometimes feel intimidated by them.I need to find out how I can get to know them better otherwise I feel our relationship may end and I couldn't handle that! Please give me some suggestions on what to do?Thanx

I'm usually quite confident around people including people I don't know but I think it's just a thing cause even though they usually don't say it best friends do judge how good you are for they're friend.
He's brill around my friends in fact he chats to them every week when he's over.
Gonna try organise bowling or a game of soccer in the park with him and his lads I think.
Woke up this morning with a more positive outlook on the whole thing so thanks for the help!!

i try to talk to them sometimes but i feel stupid trying to make conversation.
Does he talk with your friends? Maybe you could suggest going out with some of your mates and his mates. I tried that once, and i feel more confident around my friends.
I dont think were ever going to get on as "best buds" but at least were on mutual terms.
oh sorry ive just realised your between 18-21, so maybe my advice isnt that good lol
hope it all goes well (Y)

 Have a talk with your boyfriend tell him how you feel, if he loves you he will understand.
