His Girlfriend Wouldn’t Tell Her Friend Group That They Were Officially Dating, So He Just Decided To Flirt With One Of Her Friends

This young man and his girlfriend have been officially dating for a few weeks now. Yet, she still hasn’t introduced him to her friend group as her boyfriend yet, and it started to get on his nerves.
At first, he didn’t really think anything of it. But then, when he and his girlfriend were planning to hang out with her friends, she actually told him not to mention the fact that they were together.
He couldn’t understand why, either, but his girlfriend just claimed that she “wasn’t ready” for the label. So, he went along with it for one evening, and everything with her friends went fine.
“But afterward, I told my girlfriend that I felt like [garbage] and that I wanted to be seen as her boyfriend,” he recalled.
“She said not to worry and that she will be ready soon.”
Well, the next time they were invited to hang out with her friend group, his girlfriend still asked him not to mention their relationship again. Still, while he was really annoyed, he agreed to keep their exclusivity quiet.
Then, while they were all together, he actually overheard one of his girlfriend’s friends asking about her relationship status and whether or not there was anything going on between them.
“She said I was just a friend, and I was hurt, to be honest,” he admitted.
“I knew what I agreed to, but it hurt to hear her say it.”

However, later that same night, one of his girlfriend’s friends actually approached him and began flirting with him. Then, he got asked if he was interested in his girlfriend, and he decided to lie, too, claiming that they were just friends.
So, for the following two hours, he just hung out and “lightly” flirted with his girlfriend’s friend.
“I didn’t kiss her or anything like that, but I did playfully shove her,” he clarified.
“And I wasn’t planning some revenge on my girlfriend or anything, but it felt nice to have someone flirt with me.”
While he thought the whole thing was innocent, though, his girlfriend was really upset. She accused him of crossing a line– even after he swore that nothing happened and they were just “having fun.”
That’s why they’ve been fighting ever since seeing her friend group again. And now, he’s been left wondering whether he should apologize for flirting with her friend or not.
Why do you think his girlfriend wanted to keep their relationship a secret? Can you understand why he was hurt by that? Was he wrong to flirt with her friend?
