Dear Amy: My partner of four years has a group of college friends. With every reunion, I have done my best to be kind, to participate, to be funny and inquire about their lives. It’s hard for me to engage with many of the members of his friend group. They don’t understand my humor, I am rarely asked questions about how I am doing or what I am up to, and I find that the majority of their conversations are satirical put-downs of other people from college. I’m a realistic person; I don’t need to be liked by everyone, simply because I, myself, do not like everyone. That being said, I love my partner. He makes a notable effort with my numerous friends and family, winning approvals and gaining acceptance with each encounter. I don’t understand why I haven’t had the same experience with his friends and family members. The people in his life don’t seem to reflect the man that I know, and it is upsetting to me that I may never fit into some parts of his life as well as he fits into mine. I’ve talked to him about this many times.
