writes:I hate my boyfriend's best friend. Every time he comes to town he mooches (READ: lives, drinks and eats on my boyfriend's money). Furthermore, when he's here my boyfriend refuses to answer his phone. Which really upsets me. If the guy is going to stay with my bf for three days, he'll ignore me for three days. My bf claims it's rude for him to talk to me while he has a guest, but come on, when he had roommates he'd still talk to me and that's pretty much what this guy is - a free-loading roommate. Everytime he comes around we get into a massive fight, and as soon as the guy leaves my boyfriend comes crawling back to me and acts properly again. We've been together almost a year and a half.Should I just dump him so he can be with his first love, his mooching best friend?

 i think your bf is struggling to put up a priority list. he needs to understand that somethings in life are not equal, so he has to learn the difference between a girfriend and a best friend. you have every right to feel negleted i mean you are not asking him to leave his guest and come to you but a little attention as a gf is required and unfortunatley your bf doesnt understand that.
like dvi said your bf is making a choice here not being used. tell him how you feel about this he really need to find a balance otherwise he will loose you. learn not hate that friend that much, pretend as if you see nothing. and resolve your issues together.

 I turn my phone off when I'm with friends as well... It's nothing to break up with him over. Your bf obviously knows that he's being taken advantage of, but he's making a choice. As long as he isn't cheating on you, it's fine...
