Question Girl, you asked some questions in your comment and Val is demanding that I answer them.
Really, only 2 of my friends are giving me a hard time.
1. Tracy. Friend since H.S. and roommate of 17 months. Never single, can't handle it. Engaged to be married in August. Is jealous of me in many ways. (I know that sounds conceited, but it is true.) She is not outgoing and is jealous that I have many friends. Was jealous of last bf, too. Her fiance does not call for days at a time, is hours late, will go out of town for business for a week and not call. Fine, that is their business - but she wants to talk to him every day. She hates that I'm not here to keep her entertained when she is alone.
2. Mandy. Married. Friend for about 5 years. My friend, but has gotten to know Tracy through me. Opinion is affected by Tracy calling and talking about me.
I have talked with both of them about this situation.
Tracy says that I won't admit that I was wrong about him. (because I was overwhelmed by the attention and our differences when we first met) I told her that I am aware of the change in my opinion and that he knows of my original apprehension. I used to say that I didn't mind being alone some nights and that I need my alone time. I still need some time to myself (which I get when I ask for it), but I didn't know that I could love being with someone ALL THE TIME! I still think that it comes down to her missing me and being jealous that I found someone who gives me what she always wanted.
Mandy was upset that I got pissed when she voiced her opinion. I told her that I was pissed that she and Tracy couldn't be happy for me. Mandy and I have pretty much gotten over it, although I still see her exchange looks with Tracy when Marc calls me or texts me.
OK, girls. Does that cover it?

That's betta. Thanks. I figured as much w/ Tracy and I don't know Mandy at all. Tracy's relationship is WAY different than yours and I doubt that she'll ever be secure in it. I'm glad you have found someone who you are happy with and who you love to spend time with! That is so important. Wish you were closer so we could all 4 do stuff together. Well, all 6. Eh, you know what I mean. Love you =)
tracy needs to evaluate her OWN relationship and stay out of yours...
i wonder how happy mandy is in her OWN marrage..... (ok, that was snarky)
i am glad you talked to her - i think it is sad that the 2 of them are outwardly snotty about you and marc
i am really happy for you
