I act differently around my wife than I do with my friends. Actually I act differently around friends depending on who they are, too. I also have different conversations with my male friends than I do with my female friends.
It's called being human. Nobody is exactly the same to everyone they meet. Sometimes a friend is an equal; sometimes they're a mentor; sometimes they're a protege. Each situation requires a different approach.
In my specific case, there's an obnoxious jokester inside me that occasionally comes out when I'm around my friends. I don't usually act that way with my wife, though, because her tolerances are different. And when i'm with her I want to be gentle, loving, attentive, and husbandly. I don't need to be that way around coworkers, football buddies, etc.
Your man isn't hiding anything from you, he's just reacting differently to different situations. I think it's completely normal.

Different people bring out different aspects of our character.
Which means every friendship and relationship is special and different from any other we may have because we too change with change. I've heard it said that love is not only caring for someone else, but also loving who we are with them. Its bring out the best in each other that creates love.

Probably because he doesnt want them to see that he is a senative caring guy. When he is around all those guys he wants to come off like a stud...a real man...not some sap that is in love with his wife.

you stated that your man is great but he changes when his friend comes around listen tome if he couldnt remain the same while his friends are around then he has some real issues. and you need to see your way out especially if you plan on marrying him.

Men want their friends to see them as strong, independent, don't-take-any-crap, macho men! The problem is that most guys are not like that at all. They are actually sweet and loving individuals; but don't tell their friends!

He's immature and doesn't want his friends to know he cares about you. He thinks it makes him look like more of a man.

well from experience i can say that guys are stupid when they're NOT around other guys, but when they get around they're friends... it's bad. my boyfriend used to be jerkzilla when he was around his friends but i talked to him about his behavior towards me around his friends and it stopped altogether. i just told him: you know i never thought that anyone could come between us but im starting to wonder. and he said: what are you talking about? and i said: when your around your friends your really rude to me and i dont like it. i have really strong feelings for you and i dont want our relationship to end just because your friends sort of mess with your personality. do you understand. he nodded and told me he loved me(for the very first time!!!)

Most men feel they have to be the MACHO JERK infront of their friends if he is good to you all the other time let him be or you could try to talk to him about it and see what he says

because men seem to think when they are in front of friends (some men), that they can act like they are macho and bossy and etc... - let him know when you are alone you aren't going to stand for it and next time you are going to walk out and leave him there like a jerk or you are not even going to be bothered going to hang out at all
