I feel your pain. If its about the ex its all "lets talk" if its about anyone else I have to say something and even then it just dies. You can always pm me about stuff. I'll listen

I know how you feel.Thats why I always talk out boy troubles with you guys.My real life friends. Either they don't like my choice of guys, know my ex so I can't get an unbiased opinion, or would laugh there ass off at guys like the one who wanted to wear my shoes, or the guy who's a virgin.I'm so gald I have you guys.

My friends probably would talk to me about any boy issue that came up but I kind of feel like the boy who cried wolf because I have so many boys I talk about. Everytime I mention one, they're like, wait, who? And not that I blame them. I have a hard time keeping track of names myself.

My friends are also kind of the opposite. They usually encourage me to dump the guys I'm seeing and go after the new guys I meet. (I guess they have my best interests at heart because most of the time I'm dating losers.)

It's just so much easier to get objective advice from you girls. Not that all of you watch Nip/Tuck but the new Dr. said it so perfectly last night. He said that it's time and care that clouds your judgment (with friends), meaning it's easier for strangers to gauge a situation than people close to it.

it might be because your friends want to talk about people that they know the "scoop" on, or whatever you want to call it. I know i'm more inclined to ask my sister about her ex-bf then her current bf, simply because she was with him for a long time, and now our whole family knows him and cares about his welfare. The new bf is sorta new and I don't trust yet that he's gonna be there for a while, so I don't learn as much about him. it comes with time. i'm not sure why they ask about losers though? Maybe for a laugh or to be annoying?

I totally agree, it is way easier to talk about people you know more about. I know it's annoying though!! The same exact thing happens to me I think almost every day one of my friends asks me "how's Mike" (my ex) and I just get sick of talking about him. You can definitely always tell us about it though!! We listen!!
