Relationship advice: Putting the focus on your own relationship instead of their friendship will be more productive in the long run.
I started seeing “Tyler” last summer. I met him at the gym and working out, running and fitness is a big part of our relationship. He’s really funny, outgoing and extroverted. He has a much bigger friend group than I do, and his friendships are important to him.
I have never considered myself a jealous person. But I am definitely uneasy that Tyler and Lisa are so close and I sometimes feel left out when she’s in the room, not to mention when they’re off on their outings. The closest I came to discussing my feelings with Tyler was noting how much time they spend together. He said she’s “like one of the guys,” and talked about how important it was “for the dogs” to spend time together.
Lisa is someone Tyler likes to hike with, and maybe grab a beer after. Sometimes they text. Sub in the name “Jeff” or “Bob” for Lisa — and is there still a problem? Probably not. Nowhere in your letter have you expressed any reasons why Tyler can’t be trusted. Rather than focus on their friendship, focus on your relationship, and the knowledge that you don’t have to be anything and everything for Tyler.
