He chats with his exes
Dear Sarcastic Sage:
so I have this issue with my boyfriend. He has several female friends that I have never met and only know by name because they make random comments on his Facebook page. I’m not a jealous person so I don’t demand explanations about who they are, what their inside jokes mean and/or how well they know each other (even though I know that he was involved with some of them in the past since I have seen pictures of them hugging and kissing).
NOW the problem is that I cannot receive phone calls or texts or Facebook messages or posts from ANY male friend because he will be upset the whole day. The comments are straight forward with no insinuations and from no one I have ever been in a relationship with or anything. How the heck do I make him see that it is not fair and it makes no sense? should I give him a dose of his own medicine or should I subjugate to his macho treatment?
thanks! I look forward to the advise!!!

Dear A,
Here is my ‘advise’: Even though you will hear about the equality that women have gained over the past decades, and will see television programs, and read news articles about how women are now their own people, the reality is that this is all just for show. In the real World not much has changed, so if I were you (and I’m glad that I am not), I’d keep quiet and just bear with his seeming stupidity.
The reason he doesn’t want other guys talking to you is because he knows exactly what is going through their heads, even when they are posting boring chit-chat on your Facebook page. You may wonder how he knows what’s going through those guys’ heads. It’s simple; it’s exactly what is going through his head when he’s talking to other women. So, he is just being protective, and keeping you from getting hurt by falling into the traps that guys are surely setting for you.
Just be glad that you have someone who is looking out for you.
Sincerely,
Would you like terrible advice? Why not ask the Sarcastic Sage?
I am a guy and my girlfriend talks to her ex’s but gets jealous when I order food from a waitress and gives me the 3′rd degree about my female FB friends so don’t say this is something left over from the 1950′s because is happens both ways
Fagg. Next time she pulls something like that grab your nads and make them usefull.
she is my ex-girlfriend now and that was a big part of the reason
What a pile a utter garbage! NO,if he can play around then so damned well can you. If hes acting all fishy then hes hiding soemthing not PROTECTING YOU! Otherwise he wouldnt be engaging in his own chats and freaking out at yours. Grow some balls,a healthy relationship is about compromising and honesty! You want her to what!? Your IGNORANT
You are so right on both counts :)
This makes me wonder how many people pay attention to the SARCASTIC part of Sarcastic Sage….
LOL, did u just tell her to grow some “balls”?? goodluck with that….
Well if he just doesn’t shut up about the same thing and he doesn’t trust you, what I would do, is block him for watching what friends post on your wall :D that simple and you can include all common friends in this list if you want, so that no bff of him can go with the gossip that someone said HI to you :S
first off i think thats the stupidist advice anyone has ever given….but since this is the “sarcastic society page” maybe u were being sarcastic, first off i would NEVER allow my partner to gtell me i coudlnt do something (specially when i was NOT giving them any indication TOO worry) when they are doing the same exact thing. he is not protecting her , hes controlling her….any idiot can see that…….i say talk to him about it, how unfair hes being, and if he wants her sto top….he should stop to…and if hes not willing to….then she should reconsider the relationship
You almost had the point, ALMOST!!!!! SO close, maybe next time. Sarcasm.
If these ‘advise’ requests really aren’t completely made up, I have to ask myself, “What kind of idiot would ask advice from an incurably sarcastic person?” Then I realized that those poor people don’t know what sarcasm is, just like most people don’t know what irony is.
lol
He’s behaving suspiciously, if he’s not cheating he’s thinking about it. It’s time to move on.
Dear SarcastiC – age(I ate the S from the word sage and SC = Silent Chuckle) I assume that you are young but not that young but nevertheless it’s time to grow up a pair ah a pair of jeans ah now I remembered a song: That Old pair of Jeans by Fatboy Slim . . . I like the lyrics, you can find it on youtube I like the Hula Hooping Version of That Old Pair of Jeans listen to the song you might understand something more(watch?v=vWyfxWD-hlc) I was supposed to reach to a conclusion but listen to the song instead and remember, it’s always *grow up time* -smiles-
id say this is definitely a two way street. i am a forward thinking female that doesn’t put up w/ b.s. like that…i too am single–and look what it gets you to standing up for what you believe is right by you lol go figure ; )
on the other hand, i am friends w/ a lot of exes, not on purpose, more just coincidence. i do not share secret inside jokes blatently on their FB page to annoy the new flame or have any intention otherwise. actually, it’s kinda funny, a couple have got back into relationships (when we ‘friended’ on FB they were single) and since then, i believe they have blocked me from posting on their page or something, cuz i never see updates from them, but they still text to say hi/how are you once in a blue moon.
so i take that as them being good guys and having the f-in respect for the one you are with to take the first step and stop the problem before it starts…if you don’t want doubt in a relationship, erase the opportunity for it. of course there are limits to everything, but that is my .02 worth from a happy single person : )
@lola tl’dr.
Even though this is completely out of the “sarcasm”.
I HAVE to say that i really like what you said here.
There’s this thing in my head saying that you might be very right on your last paragraph.
Just wanted to share that thought =)
Cheers and goodday/night to all
Great sarcasm!!!!! You people that are taking this srsly need to get a life and remember what page you’re on!
Its funny thing about this article. It sounds like me. I have a bunch of female friends. The two difference are, 1. All my friends are HAPPILY MARRIED. Their husband know me or about me and its no issues. 2. I dont trip everytime her phone rings and there are guys in her phone that she has dated or F’d a while ago. That is the past. I dont want them. I’m wit you. Get over it.
