advice on my relationship

Amber

So me and my boyfriend have been dating for a year and a half and he HATES drama. So I try to refrain from telling him about drama that I’m In (even though it’s pretty rare) but recently this girl, that he’s friends with, texted me saying that she wanted to fight me and all this bs. Anyways, when I told him about it he got really defensive and told me that I need to stop responding to her even though she was talking bad about him and our relationship. I feel like whenever it comes to me being in a fight with a girl that he’s friends with, he always tells me that I need to fix what I’m saying instead of saying that the other girl is in the wrong. He says that it’s just because he can tell me what to do and not the other girl but I feel like he just wants to defend them and not me. What do you guys think? Any advice on what I should say to him?
