Suppose you're in a relationship and there is a new interest, but you are in love with your boyfriend, but you can't help but notice the new guy. You tell your boyfriend that there is nothing between you and the new guy, and you're just friends. However, you know very much well that if you allow this to continue it will only end up as bad news because every time you get into a fight with the boyfriend you will talk to him for the support.
Why not cut off the new guy and develop that trust with your boyfriend?
Girls like to have options. Furthermore the boyfriend should get used to the fact that there is going to be other guys in her life that she is going to rely on. If she says they are just friends then he should trust her enough and not be insecure enough to try and cut off that friendship.
Even if there is potential there it is a shallow friendship. She might just be keeping the new guy around because she likes the extra attention and affection. If I were the boyfriend I would just let her know how I felt about the new guy in her life and tell her that it's her choice and that I still love her. Obviously she still loves the boyfriend or she wouldn't be sticking around; new prospects are just an obstacle for a relationship to get past and grow from.
My sister is going through this exact same thing with her boyfriend and a "new guy. " I don't know why she won't cut him but the only answer I can think is because the girl is attracted to the new guy and may see some potential there. I would cut the guy but every girl is different.
