It means that when he's around you alone, he's trying to be cool for you specifically but when he's around his friends, he wants to show off for them.
Cool Jerk was created in 1966.
You make them like you by not trying to be cool and just be yourself. Don't act like a jerk when you're around your friends. Good Luck!
Yes of course!
it means your boyfriends friends want him to act like that and he gave in to peer pressure
Well he obviously is insurcure and uncomfortable arouns you and doesn't know how to act so he acts like a jerk. You need to talk to him and tell him how you feel. If he still acts like a jerk he isn't worth trying to be friends(or more) with him.
Actually it is possible to be a jerk and cool at the same time. See the doctrine here. http://kuldyerk.blogspot.com/
cool means (competley overrated out of style loser) jerk means ( junior edgacated rich kid)
Its because he doesnt feel as much pressure when its just you and him but when hes around his friends they dump the pressure on. You could try being friends with them or compleatly ignoring him when you hang out with him and his friends. when he is around his friends he might think that he needs to be mean to other girls but inside he is hurting because he knows hes hurting you. he just doesnt want to be bagged on.
for one thing, don't be a jerk to her around your friends, just to be 'cool', girls hate that. (I would know because I'm a girl) Start out just by being friends. Once she feels comfortable around you start to dig deeper till she gets the message. Be patient. Don't rush her too fast.
If you're saying that your friends are the one that make you a nerd then you're not a friend to them. You're a jerk for saying that your friends are making you a nerd.(no offence^_^)
Yeah, he is cool, alright. He might be a jerk, but there is no denying he is definitely cool!
