Hello people

I met the girlfriend of a very good friend tonight. My friend and his girlfriend have current a difficult phase and have a lot of stress due to private problems. As far as I know its really tense between them. But before I continue, please try to evaluate the situation as neutrally as possible even if I describe my view, I try to make it as neutral as possible.

Back to the topic, when my friend told me about some problems and situations, I thought he was not really "man" enough. He should have been more alpha. When I met her today, I felt a weird vibe between him and his girlfriend from time to time (my subjective perception). She made comments about him like, his hip is inflexible and he has a big mouth (not in talking but the shape of his mouth). I wonder, do such comments show that she has less respect for him? I know the two have a lot of stress but sometimes I interpreted it as slightly passive-aggressive. Maybe it's normal to be annoyed with each other and make comments like that when you're stressed. My friend has also often made 1-2 comments, but I always felt they were less mean. For example, he said that his girlfriend has many unnecessary possessions while she sat next to him. They both say comments about each other but my gut says she is meaner than him. Maybe someone understands what I mean by that.

What do you guys say?
