Friends can have a huge influence on your relationships. If your friends are always putting your partner down, no matter how much you love him/her, it might be hard to stand up to them.
Sit down and write a list of what your friends say, and then how you really feel about your relationship. Donīt be defensive and try to prove your friends are wrong, but also realize that your friends are jealous about time you spend away from them and they might just be trying to drive your partner away so they can have you all to themselves again.
Make your *own* decision. If your partner good for you? Do you both support each other, love each other, and help each other attain your goals? If so, ask your friends to be more supportive too. People need both friends and loves in life, it shouldnīt have to be one or the other.
