writes: I am feeling vexed because my bf seems to be jealous that I am more popular with in our mutual friends (it is a big group of more than 50 people). I think if anything,the reason why I am invited more often to social gatherings is because I am closer to a few of the organizers. Hence they extend an invitation to me. My bf is not deliberately left out for outings. But he is not an active member in our big group of friends. As such organizers do not invite him. But he is always welcomed to outings. Yet, he feels sour because gesture of invitation was not extended to him but to me instead. This poses a dilemma for me. He would be unhappy if I went for outings without him. But when I do invite him, he doesn't want to go because he wasn't "invited" in the first place. If I don't go, my friends would ask why I am not going and I don't know what to tell them. In addition, whenever there are really huge outings where EVERYONE is invited, he suggests places that I really wanted to go alone with him. I get the feeling he wants to be mr popular. I don't know what to tell him.
