I have a bit of a dilemma. I've just finished school and i've had a 2 month break before starting college in a week or two. When school finished I finally got back together with the love of my life who I had had an on/off relationship with since December. We've had a fantastic 2 months spending practically every day together, but I've been making sure I don't neglect my friends in the process, accepting all invitations for social events with them and cancelling time with him for them. But my friendships aren't very solid at all at the moment. I feel as though I'm losing everybody, and I know of 2 parties that all my close friends have been invited to but I wasn't. I don't understand what i'm doing wrong and I'd rather not have it out with them because my other friends may take sides and i could lose them.

It sounds awful, but the more time i spend with my friends the more time i want to spend with my bf because they seem to be forcing me out. I can't seem to have both bf and friendships without causing conflict, and i know that they say a friendship is for life and a bf is only temporary but it really doesn't seem that way. My bf and i are really serious, we've even discussed marriage and family some time in the future. Do I really have to chose between the people I love?

If these people loved you like you ove them then they wouldnt force you to choose at all! Try talking to one or two of your friends. Usually if things are talked through maturely the problem gets sorted. Good luck n remember dnt let anyone push you around you have the right to do what you makes you happy! xx
