Also, if he does indeed text something that was suggested, I'm sure he paraphrased or at least agreed with it, or at least to an extent.
Jerry:And.... you are not the bf!! Dave is. Best friend Dave: Omg nooo I just wanted to help...
You're thinking of Maury, just as a bro tip.
this comment wouldve been the most liked if you had put maury
Which means he is nervous as hell and wants to make sure he doesn't say something that will make you think he is weird etc
I honestly think that's right. I'm probably as nervous as the guy listed in the fml lol I totally would do the same for certain questions but not all of them.
Okay, he might not have wanted to say the wrong thing, but OP trusted HIM, not his friends, and talked to him about things that she probably only wanted /Him/ to know. So since he is talking to his friends about everything she says, it's kind of like an invasion of privacy.
She specifically said "cute" things. Like flirty, affectionate things. I highly doubt he's relaying that her mom is dying of cancer or what have you.
Doesn't matter. Their conversations are still being repeated to other people.I'd be pretty shocked if this happened to me.
Oh, like OP isn't talking about these conversations with her friends...or strangers on the internet...
Yeah I agree on that part, that her bf really wants her to think good of him, but she texts him to talk to HIM. She wants to know more about him and to see if this relationship is okay or not. She doesn't want a text that isn't written by him. That's not why she texted him.
Just imagine she says how his day was and he sends it to his friends "Hey guys she said how my day was what do I say"
They are like his "Cyrano de Bergerac." :-)
Perfect parallel. You were thumbed down by cretins.
Thank you, I was hoping someone would get it.
Honestly sometimes I ask my sister in law what to say. Sometimes people just aren't good with words. Don't get me wrong I don't think it's right to do that for every little thing but certain comments I ask for suggestions with.
Don't girls screenshot messages and send them to group chats all the time?
No...
No, not everyone wants other people to see their messages. A friend of mine keeps asking me what to say to a girl he likes but I think if someone in a relationship asked I'd be a little concerned for them, unless it's a "I'm pregnant" and they say "what do I do???".
I like how you assume only girls do this. Many of my guy friends screenshot conversations that they want to show me. I, on the other hand, hardly do this.
True, it seems to be a common thing in general.
I don't think he meant just girls, but he's specifically addressing OP, who is a girl.
Trust me, no male who fits the stereotype of "normal guy" does that...
Maybe he just doesn't want to say the wrong thing and upset you
The bright side is, now you know his friends won't try to make you two split. They must like you if they were willing to help everytime , and that goes a long way to make a relationship work. Your boyfriend was worried because he wants to do the right thing and keep you .He just needs to work on his insecurity. ( that's a tad optimistic maybe, but at least he told her before it got too weird)
I agree. There are so many was you can mess up by text message, he likes you, and so he just wants to do this thing right. How are your face to face interactions? If you two get along well when you are together, the text messages may be pretty trivial. Don't worry about it too much OP! :)
Or maybe he just isn't that into you and is using you until something better comes along.
It just means he really likes you and doesn't want you to think he's a dweeb
