  • In an adult relationship friends do not come first , your partner does.
  • most of that should change as you get older. YES i have noticed that young people dont treat their boyfriends and girlfriends very nicely. It's really sad too because a lot of bad habits are formed from this and can carry on into your adult relationships. I know some of mine did for awhile. You shouldnt put your friends first and cause heartache to your b/f or g/f though.
  • I think you boyfriend or girlfriend should be your best friend.
  • I agree with you. Yes, friends are very important, but so is your bf/gf and I think that you shoul try to put them first.
  • This will sound really bad, but to keep everything under control, you have to put YOURSELF first. If you're not happy, then why are you there? Example. Your boy/girlfriend really cares about you, but your friends don't like him/her & are pressuring you to dump them, or vice versa. If you love the guy/girl, then stay with them. Just because they're your buddies doesn't mean they get to dictate who you're gonna go out with. And if your guy/girl doesn't like your buddies, then too bad for him/her, because they're your friends too. Basically, you shouldn't have to give up your happiness because one person or a group of people think they're the master puppeteer. They're not you. YOU'RE you.
  • The common belief would stand IF the friends were true friends. Once I am with someone who makes my heart smile from the inside out my friends back off and allow us the time we need to get to know one another. That's what true friends do for their friends. I have no issue backing up for a friend who has a partner. If that mean less time spent hanging out so be it. My friends happiness means more to me than anything.
  • your partner should come first, but not to the extent that you may be compramising a previous friendship. if your partner dissaproves of your friends greatly, then maybe he/she is not the person to be with.
