I have a friend who I have been hanging out with for a few weeks now. Everything was going great but today I found him at his house hanging out with some other guy, and that guy used to be my best friend a few years back.
I know I should not but I feel a little bit resentful towards the two of them hanging out together. Maybe it is my insecurity or maybe I am feeling a bit left out, but I can’t decide why exactly why I am feeling this way and why my friend did not invite me to hang out with him. Do you think my feelings are justified? And why did my friend not ask me to come spend time with him?
It is natural to feel that way. Let your friend know your feelings.
You have grown possessive and your friend may have thought that you would not enjoy the activity he would enjoy with your friend
Maybe your friend did not want to make you uncomfortable inviting you to spend time with someone who was once your best friend or maybe they met accidentally. Your feelings are justified because this happens with all of us.
