Sometimes, I think that is one's own personal insecurities shining through, and other times it can be that you are picking up on a real issue - not that he likes her better but that he is not liking you enough or putting you first when the two of you are socializing with others. Being in a relationship takes a commitment that can mean modifying the way we act with friends and relatives so that the relationship comes first.

He may be ready to do that or he may not - but it sounds like it's something you need to bring up. Think about it for awhile and find a way to phrase it so you are not on his case and not making yourself sound insecure, just focus on the level of commitment and how you feel about the interactions with friends and family and their impact on you both.

(I should say that I did have a bf - long term committed - in college who acted like that with my best girlfriend and as soon as he and I decided to take a break for a bit, the two of them hopped into bed - so trust your gut, too!)
