Does your friend have better taste in guys than you?

It could be two things....her friends (yourself inclyded?) are talking trash that may or may not be true and being generally clueless about normal relationships and the guy isn't gonna put up with it for long.

Or, if your friend is just latching on to any guy that gives her attention...an abusers first step is often getting the victim isolated from friends and family before the abuse and control start to escalate so she has no place to run.

Only she can figure out which one...if can look at things honestly and not through rose colored glasses of desperation.

I think the b/f was insinuating that her friends were ( for whatever reason) going to cost her a lot... AKA, her relationship with him.

Yeah to me it sounds like he is trying to isolate her from her friends and being controlling etc.

You're not the best one to judge someone else's behavior.

Mention both options to your friend and then drop it.....you only worry that you aren't part of the problem.

I think she needs to get some new friends.
