It’s not only caused countless arguments over the years, but the relationships themselves. If my buddies wanna do something but so does my girlfriend, I go with my buddies instead.

And I love my girlfriends, especially the one I have now. Yet if we’re at a bar or something and my friends are with me I’d rather make sure they’re having a good time. Why am I Ike this and how do I stop it?
>>
because surprise, surprise, girlfriends aren't that fun to be around unless pussy is guaranteed.
I'd also always rather get shitfaced with my friends than spend time with a woman. I got into plenty of arguments over it, have been called an alkie and whatnot, but friends are for life but pussy isn't.
>>
>I choose my friends over my girlfriends and I don’t know why
because you fucking should?
your friends will be with you longer than your gf

you even said it yourself there, this has happened in multiple relationships

when you don't interact with your friends and instead spend all your time with your woman, that's a much more serious issue
I only see a bunch of friends once or twice a year at this point thanks to that problem
>>

I think if you choose your friends over your girlfriends every single time, either your girlfriends are very boring or you just value your friends way more, and that may be hurting your relationship with your girlfriends. Consider which of the two it may be and you'll know what to do: either find girlfriends that are more exciting, or dedicate some quality time to them.
>>
>>32595420
The problem is I do dedicate a lot of quality time with my gfs. And they’re not boring. My girl now is someone I can play video games with, watch movies with without her being on her phone, we engage in conversations all the time that I genuinely enjoy. But she’s told me she notices that even when we go out I’d rather talk to the random people at bars than her.
>>
>>32595252
That is true. I was that guy once and I had never been so miserable. But now that I date someone I genuinely enjoy I can’t get that mentality out of my head.
>>
>>32595153

Because you haven't grown up yet and haven't taken any of these "relationships" seriously. But at some people you'll find a girl who genuinely becomes your best friend, and that you want to do everything with. That's the serious one.
>>

Point*
>>
>>32596026
Have you tried including your girlfriend in those conversations with strangers? I can understand her wanting to be involved, but she should also understand that taking her to a social event and then only talking to each other is a waste of time.
>>
>>32596041
>some people you'll find a girl who genuinely becomes your best friend, and that you want to do everything with.
Other people's lives can't be predicted like an exact science. Anon might genuinely die alone.
>>
>>32595153
That's the correct course of action
>>
>>32596041
That doesn't exist. A man's wife isn't his best friend, she's his wife. A man's best friend will always be another man.
>>
>>32595153
BITCHES COME AND GO, BUT YOUR BOYS WILL ALWAYS BE THERE. BROS BEFORE HOES. NEVER FORGET THAT.

>>32596562
>ive never interacted with a woman before except for discord troons
fixed your post, king
>>
>>32596574
Nah. I have a girlfriend. This is what it was always like, millenials and zoomers are just deluding themselves because they have no actual friends. The truth is that men and women cannot be real friends. No in the same way anyway.
>>
>>32596595
Nah, I'm older than you and the millenials and zoomers in this case are correct, you are not.
I kind of feel sorry for you though. If your gf/wife isn't someone whose company you truly enjoy and who you can feel like you're part of a team with...then what's even the point? Just to say you have one?
Don't even say "but muh sex" because you should be able to get laid without seriously dating someone, especially if you are "le based man's man alpha" like you're clearly trying to pass yourself off as.
>>
>>32596444

If anon is continuing to be social, and is likeable enough to be able to get girlfriends he doesn't take seriously, then the only way he doesn't find what I described is if he actively chooses not to.

>>32596562

This is false and only demonstrates you're a clueless weirdo. All strong, lasting relationships are based on close friendship. If your wife isn't your best friend, you're going to get a divorce. Don't take my word for it, go check out the research on the subject. The gottman institute is the foremost researcher on the science of relationships, go see what they have to say.

Anecdotally, my wife is my best friend. We've been married for decades. All of our friends, also have their spouse as their best friend.

Your best friend is someone you love. If the person you love most in the world is a man that isn't a blood relative, there's a good chance you're gay
>>

>>32596607
It's not a question of whether or not one should. It's simply impossible. It's a different kind of relationship.
>>32596621
Have you noticed that it is practically impossible for any of us to hear about two men who are intimate friends without thinking they're gay? Why? It wasn't a problem in earlier ages.
And all these guys who have their wives as their 'best friend' are miserable.
>>
>>32596666

Every single prior generation through recorded history has considered their spouse their best friend.

Men can be close friends, but if a man is closer to you than the woman you fuck and who had your babies, then you're probably gay.

You're claiming something is impossible that not only isn't, but is the mainstream norm. I live a life that includes what you're claiming is impossible, and have done so for longer than many of the kids on this site have been alive. Again, the scientific evidence backs me up.

You do not understand what you're talking about. Have you even spoken to a non-blood relative woman before? Not including service workers.

>Why am I Iike this and how do I stop it?
Get serious about the girl, and relationships in general. You should only ever get into a committed relationship with a girl you intend to one day marry. If you don’t have that intention in mind, you’re not gonna take the relationship seriously, and the girl even less seriously.

Why are you dating women anyway? If you want to have fun and shit, why commit to a girl? Why bother with relationships?
>>
>>32596666
Way to waste quads on a seriously autistic post my man.
Yeah no shit, your wife is a different "kind" of best friend than your closest buddy, no shit. It doesn't have to be a direct 1:1 equivalency. The nature of my friendship with each one of my boys is a little bit different with each of them too, because people are individuals.
But if your wife isn't the one out of all them that you're the closest with at the end of the day, you're doing it wrong somewhere. Even if it was by marrying the wrong woman to begin with.
