Ok so my best friend in the entire world is a guy. No big deal, just thought I'd mention it in case it comes into play. So he's a guy who is really really shy and doesn't like crowds or talking a lot to people or adults he is not fully comfortable with but if he is then he's absolutely fantastic. But my parents constantly complain to me about how they think he's rude because when they talk to him he doesn't make lots of conversation with them, he just answers them and talks small talk. And I feel caught in the middle because I want for my parents to love him like I do and such but I know that I can't ask him to change because it's who he is and has always been so it wouldn't be fair of me to ask him to change because it doesn't necessarily fit my parents' ideal picture, but when I try and tell them that they just say I get defensive because I want to make them mad, but I don't! I want them to get along so they ca So what do I do?? Please help! Thank you!



Hey girlie,

You need to have a talk with both of them about it.  Tell your parents that you'd really appreciate it if they give him the benefit of the doubt because he really doesn't mean to come off as rude, he just has trouble speaking up in general.  Then ask him that it would really mean a lot to you if he could try to speak more with your parents and contribute to the conversations with them, because you care about their opinion of him.
