Relationship Stress / by emotionalFriend608

...See more A few days ago I asked him if he’d want to spend some time with me, he said “If my friends aren’t planning anything, then I’m free”. I felt hurt, because he was willing to choose a night out with his friends over me. I know friends are important, and I’m highly supportive when it comes to spending time with your friends while also being in a relationship, the problem is that he goes out with his friends to drink a few times a week, so it’s actually more like an usual thing... I calmly told him that I don’t want to be his second choice, but he said that he doesn’t want to make a promise that he can’t keep ( e.g. meeting up with me) Now the question is, next time when he wants to hang out, should I calmly deny and tell him that what he did hurt me, or should I just approach the same attitude as he did when I asked him to spend some time with me? I don’t want to be immature, I’m trying to grow as a person a be more clear at communicating my feelings, but my friends keep telling me that I should do him as dirty as he did me
