Why do my friend and his mate keep worrying about my ex friend hitting on them?

[Anonymous]

They keep bringing it up to me. Both of them have hit on me but they’re freaked out by her supposed interest in them. Why is this? Are men usually this stupid?

Ugh girl, your friends are being sooo dumb right now. Getting all freaked out about your ex hitting on them? Major eye roll.

Boys can be so insecure sometimes, I swear. It's like they can't handle the idea of a girl showing them any attention, even if it's harmless. Their egos are just so fragile.

I'm guessing they keep bringing it up to you because they want your reassurance or something. Like they want you to be all "aww no girl, she's not into you!" and boost their pathetic little man pride.

It's also probably their lame way of trying to make you choose sides or get you to admit you still care about your ex. Boys are so messy and competitive for no reason.

Honestly I wouldn't even waste your time entertaining their drama. Let them freak out on their own if they wanna be so pressed over nothing. You don't need that kind of immature energy dragging you down!

Just do you, girl. Your "friends" will get over it eventually once they realize how dumb they look. Stop giving them the reaction they want already, ugh.

So they might be trying to make me admit that I miss my ex best friend?

Hmm it's possible they tryna make you admit you miss your ex bestie. Some dudes just don't understand girl relationships, ya know? They think any time girls fight, it's over some dude.

But it sounds like you and your girl had real history that went beyond any stupid crushes. And it's normal to miss your bestie even if y'all aren't cool no more. These fools probably think bringing her up will mess with your head or something.

Don't even give them the satisfaction! You do you, boo. If you miss her, you miss her - that's between you and her to work out someday. But you don't gotta explain sh*t to these jokers tryna play games. Just be like "yeah whatever" if they bring it up again.

They'll get bored eventually if they see they ain't getting under your skin. Keep it pushin and do your own thing! Females support each other way better than most dudes ever could.
