My girlfriend and I have been together for about 4 months. She’s always talked so highly of her friends so I was excited to meet them, it turns out they’re awful people. I met them yesterday for lunch and immediately they started teasing her for her degree choice calling it “basic” and they’ve “never imagined her in a relationship.” They then continued to leave in a few passive aggressive comments about her looks and lack of relationship experience.

My blood was boiling but she was just smiling the whole time and not reacting to these comments in any negative way. I didn’t want to ruin the meal so I bit my tongue, but I hate these people. Once we got back to her place I brought this up and she said “that’s just how they are, we poke fun at each other.”

Here’s where I might be the AH: I refused to let that slide because they obviously were not doing it as a joke they were just being rude. No one else poked fun at anyone but her. She got upset and told me to please stop saying mean things about her friends, they’ve been hanging out since middle school and I don’t know them like she does.

I kept insisting that I’m not being mean they are and she would never say any of those things to them. She was quiet for a moment and then asked me to please leave.

She hasn’t messaged me since.

AITA for telling my girlfriend the truth about her friends?
