Am i the bad guy?
I have been with my boyfriend going on 5 years now, we are great together and I love him tremendously. About 2 years ago now one of my best friends started dating his brother and they've been happy ever since.
Recently the four of us took a vacation together for her birthday and I had a bit of a drunken outburst.
I fully well know that I should be all for them being together and I realize that my feelings are irrational to some extent but I can't help it. I do not like them dating, her and I used to be great friends but not so much since they've been together. I feel like there is no possible way we can be the same friends as we were because she tells him EVERYTHING. I can't trust her anymore. I feel uneasy and on edge around them all the time, like I'm being fake.
My boyfriend and I will be getting married soon and chances are they will be too. Sometimes you can just tell. I feel horrible for saying this but I don't want her as my sister-in-law. I hate hearing that she's hanging around my mother-in-law.
I've been holding these feelings in for 2 years and finally one night when we were all out and drinking I blurted out these feelings to her and she was balling! Balling to the extent of where you would have thought someone died.
I never meant to hurt her or anyone, I apologized the next morning, but I know it will never be the same. The two of them think down on me now and there really is nothing I can do at this point about it.
They make me feel like like the worst person, like I really said something so bad but I was just speaking my truth and I guess they couldn't handle it.
Am I really that awful?
What can I do to move forward?
I've had these horrible feelings of anxiety about it ever since and would really appreciate some perspective.
Thank You.
