My friend who I see often through college is dating my LTR's friend. We introduced the two together and they hit it off well and started dating. The problem is she is super sensitive and gets mad at him easily which makes him mad.
I'll give an example of whats going on.
So he tells me while laughing that he doesn't feel safe in her car while driving. Gives me an example of funny car scenario we both laugh. Later one day in a relevant conversation I tell my girlfriend the funny story. She then proceeds on a later date to tell her friend the funny story to get back at her for an insult (a bitchy thing to do but girls can't keep shit to themselves)
Anyways, all of the sudden she's furious with her bf that was the only person who knew the story and furious with me because I must have told my gf. Her bf is then mad at me for telling the "secret." Of course I'm his scapegoat.
If they tell me anything about me or my gf I never get mad at them because
A) I don't tell people my insecurities
B) I don't care what people say or think about me. I could care less.
C) If it's reasonably funny I'll laugh and make jokes too
D) I don't talk shit about my gf and she has nothing bad to say about me.
Situations like this have happen multiple times with me being shit on. These things can go full circle either direction (from him to me to my gf to his gf) or from (his gf to my gf to me to him). What a ClusterFuck. I usually just play it off like I don't really care and laugh at his sensitivity telling him that he's whipped and his girlfriend obviously has no sense of humor.
What do I do to stop this? just shut my mouth would probably be a good call. I do like telling a funny story though. I don't really care that much about their relationship but they should stop talking shit about each other and blaming it on me.
I wouldn't tell people bad things about my LTR that she wouldn't approve of. My gf can't control me with her anger. I automatically play Amused mastery because she is a bunny. I never pass the blame stick on. If it really hurt her I would stare into her eyes and apologize. I am not him though.
Any thoughts on what I should do or what I am doing wrong?
You might think I am just a big mouth but I keep a lot of secrets. I thought that stuff was harmless and funny. I tried to make this easy to follow, it can get confusing.
