I (25F) recently started dating “Jake” (26M). It was going great, until he casually mentioned he was flying to LA to visit his best friend, Kim. I didn’t think much of it… until I asked where he was staying.
“Oh, with her. We’ll share her bed like usual.”
Sorry, what?
He said they’ve been best friends since college and it’s “never been weird.” They’ve always slept in the same bed when he visits. It’s just “comfortable.”
I said I wasn’t okay with that now that we’re together. He got defensive and accused me of being jealous. He even said, “It’s a you problem. Kim gets me in a way you never will.”
So… I told him to go sleep in her bed permanently.
