Hi ladies, If your SO has a mutual friend that's an alcoholic, uses drugs and has visited strip clups would you expect SO to cut contact? Why or why not?
What if your SO was at some point very close to this person and still wants to have him as a good friend. Would you just pretend to like him in social gatherings?
Water seeks its own level. When my dad got married he dropped all of his friends and coworkers who displayed scrotey tendencies. This was not only out of respect to my mom but also to himself. He didn't want to associate with lowlifes. Strip clubs exploit women and contribute to the objectification of them so I'd advise your SO to drop that friend.
birds of a feather flock together. i'm willing to bet that your SO, if he's not very secretly partaking in those activities himself, encourages or even enables his friend's scrote-y behavior.
Honestly, I feel like this kind of thing always inevitably shows in the person's character. A low value ex was friends with a very conservative Catholic who was clearly a misogynist, and the fact that he was comfortable calling this guy his best friend should have been a clue. A high value ex, on the other hand, never befriended guys who went into strip clubs, etc, because he was genuinely opposed to the concept. You can't make your friend see it your way, but she is lowering her own worth by tolerating that kind of thing.
Thank you for your responses. It helped a lot
