Hello Reddit,

The titel explains it a bit already, my best friend of 2 years now has a boyfriend. They have been together for a couple of months and they are so sweet together and I wish them the whole world but the problem is basically me.

So I have been getting a knot in my stomach every time we play games, chill on call, ect. Basically just hearing/seeing them together. Its been bothering me and I am sure they both have also been bothered by it as I am extra prickly because of it. Usually it is not towards my best friend and more the boyfriend I am extra prickly towards, its kind of annoying me that I am because he is a good guy.

So yea, I have been trying to stay away from them for a bit now as I don't want to damage the friendship more then I already have. Now my question is, what could cause this knot and how can I make sure my friendship doesn't end because of it?

TL;DR: Seeing my best friend together with her boyfriend makes me feel like shit. I don't know what could cause this and don't know how to stop it from destroying my friendship.
