after a decade being together
i feel like my friend, my closest friend is slowly drifting away. it may because i'm overprotective of her from other guys. but that can't be. i was alwayss like this. she even liked it when i do it. i makes her like she has a big brother she says. But now with her last bf, she was not even serious in that relationship, when i commented on his bf's bad manners towards our circle of friends she got mad at me. only me. even if all of us did say something.
What's wrong with her?

Maybe you are over critical of the boyfriends as you would like to be more than friends with her or maybe she would like that and feels that you will never be involved with her more and so she is best to pull away than to remain close to you.
I have a very close male friend and I know that he never said anything about the guys that I dated as he knew that I would just tell him that he was jealous. We did date for a few months but he decided that he didn't want that type of relationship with me and that we were good friends so we stayed that way.
Just try to be there for her to talk to and be sure not to be too critical. Women don't like it when people tell them that they have made a bad decision in their love life.

me & her? dating... now that's hilarious
i treat her like she's my little kid sister. i'm just acting like what an brother would do. Protect my kid sisted from a stupid, ill-mannered boy friend with no breeding. i know if her mom meets him, shes going to think the same. I didn'y say any of those things to her by the way but i'm guessing she knows what i'm thinking. she knows me better than i know myself.

I think that she may thing that you're being overly critical of her BF's, and yes, that it's pushing her away.
The best way is to show her support, and do everything in your power not to say bad things, but show her how she should be treated and make the others live up to it.
Or you two might just be growing apart.. I know, it sucks. Hope it all works out for you though.

i gave the least offensive comment amongsr us. my comment was, she should teach her new bf good manners. She's use to me giving these comments. I commented somthing much more worse than what i said about her bf today. i support her in having a bf but of cors i stil have d ryt 2 giv my own opinion. bsyds, she asked for it. i'm just being honest
