Friend is never interested in who I’m dating
So I wonder if I could get some advice on whether I’m overreacting or being overly sensitive, but I’ve noticed a pattern with a close friend of mine.
Everytime I’m either in a relationship or getting to know someone, she has absolutely no interest in learning about this person or even knowing their name at the very least.
We’re long distance besties so she lives somewhere in Europe and I live in the uk but she has a pattern of whenever I tell her I’m seeing someone new (which isn’t often btw) she’ll completely gloss over it by either changing the topic or giving it a fob off response like slay or ayy. She doesn’t even bother asking their NAME!
So I’ve recently started dating this amazing guy. He’s pretty much my boyfriend already we’ve only been seeing each other 2 months but we’re heading in that direction. I was really excited to tell her and she gave me such a flippant response to mentioning him and continued talking about other stuff. Then said I hope “mister man” treats you right. Like.. you didn’t even bother asking his name or how we met??
I’ve noticed this pattern for some time to the point that whenever I’m dating someone new now I don’t bother telling her and I now have no intention of talking about him with her cause she clearly doesn’t care. The irony is that she had a boyfriend and never fails to mention him in every single conversation and I’m always interested in whatever she has to say about him but it’s never reciprocated
I’m wondering do I mention it to her or is there no point?
