Teen Drama

[scorpionldr]

So I have come to the conclusion that teenhood is dramatic, no matter how much you try to avoid drama. Since most people on TB are from the stone age (it's a joke, please don't give me a timeout...) I was wondering if things like the following ever happened to them.

Recently my school has runa project where people from different courses join in a huge project. I am in sound and it is an all guys class so honnestly it's nice to work with other people for a change. I met this girl from animation and we became fast friends. Spent time with her outside the project as nothing more then friends, since she had a boyfriend and such. And recently one of my best friends who is in her class comes to tell to back off because her boyfriend is getting jealous? The hell? I mean I never a move, is she not allowed to have friends? Plus when her boyfriend is in the general area she is a completely different person, acting all serious. In reality she is a very playful and nice person. I just don't get it.

So yeah. Crap like that happen to the other TBers?

See, this could be a message from her indirectly, or it could be just straight truth. A lot of girls don't know how to express themselves well , so they pawn off the work that would negatively impact their image to someone else.

It comes across a lot stronger/concluding to have a guy you don't know tell you that in reality, despite the niceties provided , you may just be a creep who she doesn't want to give the hostile push away.

My old story came in use after all....

I feel your pain, bro. Something like that happened to me earlier this year, whereby I lost a dear friend because of a possessive boyfriend. We live prohibitively far from each other, but he felt I was trying to make a move on his woman (over text... from miles away... ) so he started by stealing my phone number from her phone and confronting me that way, then proceeded to impersonate her whenever I'd text. Clearly the guy thought I was an idiot, so I dropped that. I don't have the time or the drive to deal with stupidity. Really sad.

It is true, however, that you kind of just deal with it. It doesn't help when you're in the middle of it, but at least it's practice.

Maybe his image of women is hanging with one is enough and he felt like he'd get critiqued by you......that's a whole other story of mine as well now I think about it.....

Don't let them kid you; this stuff will still happen when you are out of High School. Plenty of adult drama to be had. If the boyfriend is getting jealous, it could be a sign she likes you.

You never know!

Of course, it could just be the boyfriend is an easily threatened mama's boy caveman moron, which means, if you're her friend, you'll help her to see she is wasting herself on such a jackass.

Bee Eye Ehn Ghee Oh. Pretty much sums it up.

Simple teenage angst. No more, no less.

 

[Hobobob]

Ignore the chick. If she wants you, she will go after you. If she doesn't, then you'll no longer have to deal with her boyfriend drama.

Bee Eye Ehn Ghee Oh. Pretty much sums it up.

I disagree, I think the girl is just using him to make the boyfriend jealous.

High school kids are housebroken, but in many cases that's about it.

Oh man, did I lol hard at that.

 

[basscooker]

Punch him in the throat. Then punch her in the throat. Then punch yourself in the throat.

Drama over.

i lol'd.


and yeahhhhh..... dude you been used. girls are just as bad about jealousy. her boyfriend was probably talking to some girl SHE thought was a threat.....
just don't. the fact you caught on before the end game should tell you everything you need to know. just don't.

It's not a problem until the boyfriend himself says it is. And if he thinks that his gf having dude friends is a problem the he either needs to work through what insecurities he may have or find a gf with no dude friends because attempting to control your spouse is a fast road to just becoming an awful partner.

Oh, and my teen years were basically drama free. I recall maybe 3 instances of drama throughout 7-8ish years.

This right here is the type of deep wisdom that has brought TBOT international fame. I'd sig this if I didn't already have a sig.

A few of you guys put way too much thought into relationships if you think people are than maniacal.

Hell with it. Dibs - I'm siggin' it.
