Is it normal that among a group of female friends,

a man would isolate himself from among the agreeably prettiest one, and only be close friends with her other female friends? (He is married). Wife is friends with all of them too. The other girls talk about her beauty a lot, even to her.

Well, it sounds like there are a lot of shallow people here. And they may just have to learn from what their superficial ways bring them. (It won’t be pretty)

He is probably afraid his wife will accuse him of liking her.

Or perhaps he finds her boring.

Or maybe he is attracted to her, will not cheat on his wife, and so avoids her to avoid awkward situations.

Or he likes the other friend better.

Or any of a dozen other reasons.

If it is a major issue in your life, just ask him.

Mayhap the prettiest one is also the most conceited. Seeing as everyone has to tell her how pretty she is all the time that could be something that has happened.

When he’s with her, he’s weird. He compliments her. More serious around her.

usually, a lot of girls are like that. But she’s more quiet. Even they tell her that she cannot tak a compliment,bcuz she does not think she is all that different. She’s more soft-spoken and not as outgoing as the others. She does not act suck up. Quite the opposite. More shy, but friendly to everyone. (It’s noticed)

Maybe there is your answer, if she is shy and not as outgoing as the others wouldn’t it stand to reason that he might befriend the others sooner.

I say you (or this girl) should try to be friendly to him and initiate a friendship if you want one.

Very hard to know what is going on, maybe talk to others in the group see if they all pick up on this vibe as well?

Cheers,

KM

That’s how it was with just the two of them in the first year they knew each other. Then suddenly, they are like this. They both act outgoing with everyone else.
