hey girls.
so... Id like to get your opinion on something.
My girlfriend of 1.5 years has over the last few months for some reason stopped inviting me out with her and her friends (which consists of both males and females, including work and private groups of friends)
Before this, she invited me out to everything, and I'd happily go along, even if I thought it was going to be a bit awkward because I didn't really know them to begin with.
I didn't notice this for the first month or so, as I could happily occupy myself with my group of friends if she didn't invite me out with her. However, now most of my friends are busy with uni or have moved away, so I have been noticing a lot more that she doesn't invite me out.
Whenever she goes out, I don't invite myself, but I kinda hint that I'd like to come, but she never really offers.
Instead, the only time we spend together is in our own private time. And in that time, she tells me and expresses to me that she loves me (and either she's a really good liar, or she actually means it - and she's a very honest person, so I don't think she's lying).
Why would this be? Is she embarrassed/ashamed of me around her friends? I honestly think I get along very well with a lot of her friends, including her female friends!
I will add, however, that she has a strange relationship with her ex (he hasn't moved on from her/they still talk - they are friends from her small country town home, so it's hard not to still be in touch with him). Also, she has admitted to me that she still has feelings for him (but assures me that not to the same extent she has for me), but that's a whole other story. And I know that she has bumped into him whilst out at a clubs around town, and each time she says she was glad I wasn't there, cos he was there and it would have been awkward if i was too.
So i dunno, maybe she is purely worried that if I'm out with her, we will bump into her ex, and it will be awkward?
I really don't know...what should i make of this?
Please help!
