My boyfriend really likes me, except his friends aren't very nice. He's afraid to tell his friends we're together because they might make fun of him. Now his friends are saying that he doesn't like me. I really want him to tell his friends we're together. He needs to stand up for himself. What should I do and should I break up with him?

Never and I mean never underestimate yourself this much to tolerate such a behavior in a relationship.Tell him that he either tell his friends about you or he forgets you, explain to him that you are not willing to hide your feelings nor your relationship.Remember that if he is not ready to stand up for you and himself now he never will be...and its you who have to make the first step...show him that you appreciate and respect yourself and that you expect him to do the same.

If he really liked you he would not have a problem telling his friends he is with you. Never settle for second best. If he is ashamed to be with you, then don't give him the opportunity to be with you. As the old saying goes " You don't know what you've got until it is gone." maybe this is a lesson he needs to learn. A guy should always stand up for his girl, and should never be ashamed of her. And besides if his friends make fun of him then what kind of friends are they. I would never make fun of my friends. Would you?

Well, you like this guy and you seem to be strong, so you need to suggest(no force) that he tells them you're together or if he still decides not to-move on. It's a red flag that says his boys are single and he has a girl but can't admit it to them and maybe he's not fully ready for you at the time. Either you wait for him to grow up or keep it moving and let him suffer his loss.

If you know for a fact that he really likes you and you like him too. You can give him time (like a month or so) for him to tell his friends about the two of you. But if he wont do his end of the bargain ditch the guy! It aint worth it sweety, unless he have good reasons.

Dont let hime take that. If he cares about you he will tell them to step off and maybe you should push him a little and say stick up for me and if they are his true friends they wont make fun of you or him once they know if they arent cool with that tell him to get rid of them

He shouldn't care what others think first of all. He shud tell people you are together if he likes you enough he will. Obviously it seems his friends opinions mean more to him right now. He wont give you full attention if he doesn't relax and tell them whats going on. Tell him how you feel and if he doesn't tell them and they keep saying stuff to you... GET RID OF HIM!!

If he's hiding the fact that your together because he's affraid of what his friends would say he is not worth your time. Tell him he has one week to grow some .....you know.... or there will be nothing to tell because you wont tolerate him being ashamed of his feelings for you. GOOD LUCK!!

If he really likes you then he shouldn't be ashamed or afraid to tell his friends. Tell him that if he doesn't tell them, you'll break up with him. And stick too it. You deserve better then a guy who wants to keep you a secret.

He definitely needs to stand up for his friends. He's the one in the relationship with you, not them. Maybe after they get to know you, they'd feel different. Good luck!

I would not be happy being with someone who isn't even brave enough to admit he's with me. If he's too embarrassed to tell his friends, then maybe he needs to be without you. It's not treating you very well to let his friends belittle you that way.
