Hmmm thats pretty interesting. I'm kind of in the same situation but never thought of it as "he shouldn't have to fight my battles." I think thats a little harsh. She should stand up for you if she cares for you just like my boyfriend should stand up for me if he cares about me. But we shouldn't rely on them to defend us all the time but it is nice and reasonable to have our partners there for us. So talk to her and tell her you'd be happier if she stood up for you. If she doesn't care it makes you happier, then screw her and leave her.

One of the things I love about relationships is that you know you have someone in your corner. Someone has your back. I have always come to the defence of my boyfriends in the past, because I loved them, and it was apart of being in a relationship. because at the end of the day, if your partner hasn't got your back, and is willing to go into battle for you, who will?

I believe that relationships are about supporting each other. You don't have to fight someone else's battles for them, but you should at least try to fight the battle with them or avert it as best as you can.
She should fight some battles for you when they become a little chaotic, but not every time. And by chaotic I mean ones that would hurt her too because they hurt you.
They're her shitty friends, she should stop them. The same way you'd stop a guy you know from picking on her.
Not in this case. She needs to put her friends in check. Like @pr3ttybr0wn said "You need a loyal girlfriend".
If you have to put up with them, she needs to put them in their place. It's her relationship. They don't gotta date you.
if they are her friends then she should take your side
You need a loyal girlfriend
How are her girlfriends mean to you?
