We've been dating for two months and on two dates one today and one 3 weeks ago 2 of his friends died. And 4 times not long after i met 3 of his friend they had either been in a really bad fight and 1 of them was in a car accident! One of his friends said this to me and its stuck in my head and I think the guy I,m dating thinks so too. I,m beginning to think its true because i,ve not been a very Lucky person anyway could this be true could I actually be a jinx? What do you think? Reply to this Question Share |

Perhaps it's just the nature of his friends that gets them into these situations.
It's most unfortunate that you're being called a jinx by his friends, and he's starting to believe it. It's also incredibly superstitious of them to think such things. I'd suggest talking to your guy, one on one, about how it makes you feel when his friends say those things to you. It's likely he hasn't thought that it bothers you -- and it's also possible that he doesn't think you're a jinx.
Open communication can help this situation -- express your sorrow for what happened to his friends and be supportive of him while he mourns or deals with things.
