For the first time ever I have found myself in a bit of an awkward place with a significant other's friends. I have always found myself to be quite likable among a boyfriend's friends. I would always ease into a friend group a get along with everyone... accept for Aaron's friend Than and his girlfriend Margaret, but their friendship was already

Hm. That's a tough situation... not sure if you're looking for advice, or just to vent. But really, if people decide not to like you, there's not a lot you can do because they have control over that. However, they have a responsibility to be respectful to you (and visa versa).

Reading what you've wrote, I would encourage you to be around them more often. Not in an intimate, just the four of you way. But in general because it sounds like there's been a few mishaps that have left bad tastes in people's mouths, it seems that putting some neutral or positive experiences in the recent memory might be the best you can do.

This happened with me just recently where a girl I didn't much care for was accidentally invited to do something with us. I was pretty bummed because last time I saw her she annoyed the crap out of me. Anyways... in general I haven't liked her much, but hanging out, even though we didn't really talk tooo much with her, that neutral/positive experience was enough to make me not need to avoid hanging out with her.

So...don't know if that helps... but it's a thing.
