So, it turns out friends can have a significant influence on who we end up with.
This woman had enough of her boyfriends friends when he bought one of his female BFFs redlingerieas a prank.
Whats worse, he even blamed her for not being open-minded.
The woman also agreed to have a chat withBored Panda.

She also elaborated on the update she posted a few days after her original post.

In it, she detailed how the input from many netizens was eye-opening.
Granted, theboyfriendreached out to u/Conscious-Jicama2133 to meet.
But, when they started talking, he still blamed her.
He said that he understood where I was coming from.
But I was always too uptight to understand that friendship is friendship, the Redditor wrote.
The boyfriend and Claire also blamed the author for making them feel like cheaters and homewreckers.
The guy also brought up one of his girlfriends biggest insecurities: appearing boring.
The reaction to thebreakupfrom the guys friends was also icky at best.
One friend, Kyle, apparently told u/Conscious-Jicama2133 that he was sad the pair had broken up.
This did a number on the author and her self-esteem.
She ended her post by saying she feels extremely insecure about herself.
Luckily, many commenters showed her support, withone saying: You did dodge a bullet.
Im good now, I guess, she wrote in a message.
She says she and those close to her cut all contact with the ex-boyfriend and his friends.
In fact, they even blocked them all.
No one from my side stalks or sees his or Claires social media, the Redditor adds.
This was prompted by a less-than-classy post the ex made onInstagram.
u/Conscious-Jicama2133 tells us he wrote, Girls will come and go, but friendship is for life.
These words cleared all her doubts.
Needless to say, it looks like I finally got the ick, she told us.
She did, however, learn the hard way about the importance of setting boundaries.
kindly dont let people trample over your boundaries.
If they dont respect you, then leave.
