Actually, I'm a college junior (about to be a senior at the end of this May), we are a mix of juniors & seniors...unfortunately, some of us don't behave like it though.

When I was in college I knew women like you and your friends. Very selfish and angry type of people that made my life very frustrating .

It's funny you should mention that because my closest gf is always saying how I "get dates" & how men are scared of her & how there's no good men on campus...*sigh*. I just hate how everytime she says she sees my "ex", she's like "I don't know why he's scared of me" & says things like "A player knows another player...", then again she always says guys are scared of her.

You talk like your still in junior high.

Don't your friends ever talk about serious things like books, movies, music, food, thoughts, beliefs, emotions, politics, philosophy, religion, life, school subjects, etc. Ughhhhhhh......college people are soooo shallow and catty. I'm so glad I am OUT of college. So so very glad.

You and your friends are not ready to date, sorry but pick up a few books on relationships and learn some people skills.

OK, so apparently the story is this guy I was seeing last year who really hurt my feelings & who was supposed to graduate in December is still haunting our college campus w/ his presence. I have personally run into him a few times & finally spoke w/ him on one occasion, found out he is going to medical school next fall out of state & I told him congratulations. We went our separate ways after being civil to one another, I told my closest friend about it & she went ballistic, saying that she would have "cussed him out" "why did I talk to that ass?" , etc. etc.

A few of my girlfriends have seen him here & they constantly are reporting seeing him to me. It really bothers me, even though they say that everytime they see him, he averts his eyes, runs the other way or "acts scared" of them, esp. my closest friend. She said it's because he knows that she won't take any of his "sh*t like I did" (her words, not mine). But my friends also try to act bold around guys I'm with, like they "will beat him up" if he "tried" anything.

I also never happen to be w/ him whenever they run into him at the library or student center. Why are they telling me this? I'm already over him & I never talk about the guys that did my closest friend wrong. Sorry this is so long-winded but should I give them the benefit of the doubt or is there an underlying message that they/my closest friend is trying to convey?
The underlying message they're trying not to convey is that they are jealous of you, living vicariously through you and manipulating you. Let me guess, you're the pretty one, right?

You can say that again, however, there are very pretty ladies that feel ugly and act jealous and manipulative because of their belief.

That is why I say they act like junior high kids. If the OP is smart she will check out some books or read some magazines that give out various advice on relationships and friendships.

Your friends sound like they are just being overprotective of you. And maybe because you were so civilized to him that last time you bumped into him, they are afraid that you might still consider getting back with him. Sometimes when someone protests too much, it means they feel the opposite. So just ignore what they are saying and change the topic of conversation. I think that it's very mature of you to treat him in a neutral manner face to face.
