A female United Kingdom age 30-35, anonymous writes:

Me and my friend have known each other for around 6 years, she always used to joke around and was always up for a laugh.

Recently though I have noticed that now she has a boyfriend she is acting differently to what she used to be like.

I am not the only person who has noticed this, I spoke to another one of my very close friends about it and she had noticed it too.

It would probably help if I told you how she behaved haha, well basically she is a lot more 'bitchy' towards us, she will insult me more when her boyfriend is around in a joke sort of way, and every time I will just laugh it off.

She also act really dumb (which really gets on my nerves) in front of her boyfriend. Also, if I jokingly insulted her back, she'd kick me or punch me, she didn't mean it and it wouldn't be to hurt me, but I found it quite weird for her to behave like that. She doesn't do any of these things when he is not around.

I dont particularly like her boyfriend because he seems to get a kick out of making people feel and look like crap, he picks on people, especially me and I'm not too sure why, I am not a weak person and I will stand up for myself if I really couldn't take anymore of them constantly getting on my case, but I just don't know why it is me in particular. Sometimes some of my friends will even join in when they are taking the piss out of me.

They aren't always hanging around with me and my other friends, sometimes they go outside together and we would stay inside, so I suppose I don't have to always put up with them annoying me. But whenever they are hanging around with us they are constantly taking the piss out of me and It's gotten to the point where It's really not funny anymore. I would say something but my friend is a really sensitive person and she'd think I was trying to split them up, and that I was jealous that she had a boyfriend, and im not because im really not a jealous person, I dont like her acting like this, any advice?

They have been going out for around 6 months now, but why is she acting like this in front of him? It's like he has changed her and I just don't like it. It's like they are bullying me in a way.

any advice would be really appreciated, thank you for reading this rather long post :/
