Dear Lucia,

I really love my girlfriend, but I absolutely despise her friends. I just don't like them. What should I do? Terry B.

Dear Terry,

I find that hard to believe. You've heard the saying, "Birds of a feather flock together"?  She must have something in common with them, something she sees in them that she identifies in herself. You're either seeing in your girlfriend the negatives you see in her friends, or you're not to seeing positives in her friends that you see in your girlfriend. 

Your options are: look for the positives in them, break up with her or keep interactions with her friends to a minimum.

Whatever you do, don't tell your girlfriend you can't stand her friends.  She wants you to love everything about her, and that includes who she chooses to hang out with.
