Do you have a friend with an insecure partner?

Tweet

I have recently got back in touch with an old friend. He was actually one of my best friends when I was a teen and I loved him to bits and we were inseperable. Out of the crowd he was the one I spent the most amount of time with alone and we always had the same hopes and aspirations of life. I got on great with the family and they loved me too so it was all brilliant. He started getting himself into trouble (as boys tend to do in Scotland) and so signed himself up for the Army and was posted down in Great Yarmouth in England. While he was there we spoke daily on the phone and tried to keep out friendship going strong. He done well in Army life but soon met someone and within a few months she was pregnant. I don't know the ins and outs of it all but basically he got himself relieved of his army duties and they both came back up to Glasgow, so Gary could be close to the family. As soon as that relationship started, something changed and I don't think either of us wanted out friendship to change but he now had responsibilities and being the man that he was took them seriously. He got himself a trade, a house, and to cut a long story short lost contact but is now almost married and has 2 children. His fiance though is very posessive and insecure about their relationship, and now we are all back in touch she is not happy about it. My friends and I never knew her before hand and are now having our first proper expericence of her and finding her to be a bit of a nuisance. She has made very clear that in no uncertain terms will Gary be meeting up with the old crowd without her there to supervise. gary has told her that no one elses partners are going and that two of us don't even have someone to bring along so it would be awkward. We will be talking about old times, that she probably knows very little about and to be honest, I don't feel that any of my friends and I should have to go through explaining everything to her while we are trying to enjoy ourselves. I know obviously it is a shame that she feels this insecure about her relationship but I do know that it is through nothing that her partner has done or intents to do. What do you think we should do about it?
