Quote From: lebg0211 Looking for some insight...I absolutely cannot stand my boyfriend's best friend. He has 2 piercings on his face, can't hold a job, hardly doesn't speak, drinks captain morgan like it's water from the minute he gets off work on friday until sunday. I get along with him just fine -- he has no personality so it's kind of easy to. My boyfriend and I have gotten in arguements over his best friend being his best man in "our" wedding...we aren't even engaged so this is a hypothetical arguement, but it still upsets me, A LOT. I thought your best man was supposed to be the man who the groom would trust to take care of his wife and kids should something ever happen to him. Not some loser who already refused to my face to take out his piercings on my wedding day. I wouldn't have such a problem with the lip ring and the eyebrow rings were he a down to earth, nice guy. But this guy...I don't think he even has a soul...
Help :(
I can offer some insight, but I do not think you will care for it. Your boyfriend has a right to choose a best friend and although it would be nice if he(captain) lived up to your standards, he really does not have too, because he is not your best friend. Stressing over something even in theory I just don't get, are you jealous of the time he spends with his best friend or the personal connection in friendship. Would you ask your girlfriend to take out her piercings on your wedding day? Some people just look at body piercings as body piercings despite where they are. One could say that you come off harsh and your reasons are not any that are your business. If he is single, what do you care what he does on the weekends, how he appears, his work performance? The Best Man is supposed to be someone that your groom admires and cares for whether it be brother, relative, or friend. I have never heard of a best man marrying the groom's widow, but I suppose it happens.
I would suggest "killing" him with kindness. Some guys drop their girls for their friends over hypothetical arguments.
