Part of me isn't even sure if it's my place to speculate on this, if I should be getting involved. But, to some degree, I already am involved - I have ties to him, I'm his damn girlfriend, and I'm the one who listens to him.

Ugh. In a nutshell, I can see why you're concerned/annoyed. IMO, F being drafted in to take care of Lily even once, when it's not an emergency, is above and beyond. It certainly sounds like Nancy (and her husband) are taking advantage of F's good nature, and I agree as a situation it's not on.

Saying that, to be honest, I don't know if you can change him responding/helping out when she calls. I don't think you should be jealous of her; it sounds like he's just trying to do the right thing. But as you say, he is your boyfriend, so I think it's completely fair enough to simply say what you need/want from him *in relation to you*: i.e. get the tickets already and stay in contact with you. he is being taken advantage of, and it's fair for you to point that out, but I'm not sure if you can alter the situation... or at least not overnight.

I'm sure he's happy that you *aren't* a drain on him and he can talk to you. You should be able to talk to him too, when it comes to what you need. You're not asking a lot. Good luck, hope this helps...

it is never selfish to insist that a loved one care for themselves before others.

agreed. It takes a long time for some people to realize caring about oneself is the hardest thing to achieve. I should know. (((you))) goodluck.
