When you can't stand your best friend's romantic partner

My best friend and I have been inseparable for fifteen years but she's been dating someone for the past year who I genuinely cannot stand, and I can feel myself pulling away from her because I can't figure out how to be authentic about my feelings without potentially damaging our friendship.

More people experience this than they realize.
