How to balance the relationship between friends and boy friend?

Well, first and foremost it's not good to have friends because you 'need' them. I mean, it connotes selfishness. Where were you when you were needed by them? Where where u when they still ask you if you could go out with them and you'd rather say 'I'm with my guy' all the time? But still, if they're real friends, they'd accept you regardless your faults. Try to ask them. Perhaps they just don't want to disturb you with your man. My friends and I have no problem with regards to us and our relationships. We can go out all by ourselves without boyfriends and it'll be fine. I guess there's just mutual respect and besides, we have work so we don't really spend all our time together, so when there's a scheduled outing, we're sure to be ready to be there regardless what excuse we could have.
