UPDATE:

this same so-called "friend" shows his "comaradie" tonight while we are hanging out playing cards.. a girl in the group asks about my gf (something like "is she cute"), and my friend says something like "not really i'd do her after about 6 drinks", while I am right there.

I am not a confrontational guy, and I took the shit he dished about me, but to talk about my gf that way when we are not even close friends just infuriated me.

it took me like 20 seconds but I replied "hey, my gf is WAAY better than your recent ex" (which is true lol) and his older sister defended him "oh i beg to differ".

at that point the mood amongst everybody seemed to tension and sour, and i quickly left after about 10 mins cuz I was seething inside.

i know i know, as long as I like my gf nothing anyone says should affect me. and it doesnt. what pisses me off is that this "friend" shows repeated disrespect to me in front of all our mutual friends (we are all from the same research group in grad school). in the OP he keeps dishing it to me about me, now he decides to dish it out about my GF.

i am so fucking pissed. while i would like to completely unfriend him, he is the "social bridge" in our research group, and i think to burn the bridge with him would be committing social suicide in the group (not that people would turn against me, just that i would be left isolated from group activities, since he plans them all b/c he is the most social).

EDIT: i was pissed off but i was not actively angry, just angry inside. but i think its really easy to tell cuz everyone tells me when i am mad i am completely different. i usually talk alot but i turn super quiet and just brooding.
