well ive been with my bf for a little over 2 years. weve discussed marriage and we both feel that there is no one else wed rather be with. however, i feel as though im not his #1 priority. he is my #1 without a doubt and i feel like i deserve the same. is this wrong of me to expect considering his #1 is his best friend? im honestly sick and tired of coming in 2nd to someone who has wronged him in the past. especially if im the one he will make his family with. what am i supposed to think when were married with kids and im still 2nd to his bff?

It would help to have a little more information about your situation. For instance, what are the examples of his not putting you first over his best friend? I assume the best friend is a guy. My advice will depend on whether you’re super competitive and this dynamic of jealousy is going to extend to future in-laws and his time at the office, or if he’s really putting his best friend first as a way of avoiding intimacy with you and not feeling like his relationship with you comes first so he can avoid growing up. So, tell me more! 🙂
