Would it be weird if I tell my boyfriend that I’ve been trying to make friends on Bumble (girl friends)?

[pink_and_inlove]

It’s actually kind of working out this time :) last time everyone was so dry lol I just have them on snapchat but now I believe that I found people that I could actually be friends with I found 2 girls that I have stuff in common with I hope that we could be friends they seem great I just don’t want my mom to know that I met them on bumble because I feel like she’ll tell people.

Bumble is where I met him lol but when I see guys I swipe left because I don’t want a guy friend I want a girl friend also I’m not on the dating version of bumble I’m on the best friend version

It's only weird if you make it weird.
That means don't build it up and bring it up as if you're doing something wrong. Just casually open bumble when with him and start swiping and when he asks what's up tell him you're trying to make a few new friends and all that you explained here.
If he's not an insecure person it shouldn't bother him and if he is insecure it should bother YOU.

[pink_and_inlove]

He’s not insecure

[Mofunfour20]

Then you should be on a site that isn't for dating. We both know thats why he would think its weird. If you told me you were on bumble for any reason then ita clearly you dont respect me. I think the only reason you're on it is because you know he deleted the app. Meet people in person if you want girlfriends, i wouldn't believe one bit of your story. Dating site for girlfriends? Nah she on there for options, stop the 🧢🧢🧢🧢

[pink_and_inlove]

You don’t know what you’re talking about there is a setting on that app for only friends it’s called bumble BFF that’s what I’m on

[Mofunfour20]

That wasn't the premise to your question. That bit about a BFF would give people answering better context

[pink_and_inlove]

On the update i put that I’m on the best friend version of bumble not the dating version

[pink_and_inlove]

There’s also a version to prompt businesses as well

[Mofunfour20]

Who knew a dating site could be a backdoor for the friendzone? there's more people on Facebook 🤣😂🤣

[JennBITx]

That’s great that you find friends. I have noticed since I am no longer in high school, my friends circle is getting smaller and smaller. Hard to trust people

[Minahh]

Not weird at all. I've actually tried Bumble for making friends as well but unfortunately I haven't found many girls on there.

[ohshee]

I think you should have friends no matter what no matter if there it's a girl or a guy there's no reasons why you can't talk to guys or girls and I don't think it matters if you meet them on Bumble here or in your hometown a good friendship is hard to find somebody who is loyal it's very beautiful thing when you have a good good friend and you can talk about anything and everything and not worrying about it going anywhere else true friendship is hard to find

[ohshee]

Well for me I don't go and Bumblebee on Tinder or any of those apps I mean I've started the signing up for them but I never completed it and for me I would probably have to start flirting anyway LOL

[Jamie05rhs]

I don't think there's anything wrong at all with what you're doing. In fact, I think it's wonderful! But you need to change your gender settings right away so you don't keep getting guys in your potential matches.

And yes, you should tell your boyfriend.

[GingerGuy]

They actually have a setting for that I think (friends only)? Unless I'm thinking of a different app? So I wouldn't find it weird.

[pink_and_inlove]

Yup they do have a seething for that that’s what I’m on. I just hope it works out one of them left me on read after I sent her a video that I found funny of them dude on a rollercoaster we were texting a lot yesterday but today she left me on read I guess maybe she’s busy I don’t know

[pink_and_inlove]

I had sent her actually a video of my dog being angry and then a funny rollercoaster video but I got left on read rip

[pink_and_inlove]

Well she saved one of my messages and left me on read but I don't know if she’s busy

[TommyMountainFigure]

I think the opposite would be true. It's nice for people to have friends. I think he will probably be pleased for you.

[Wiredone]

I don't think it matters how you make friends. Just be careful doing it on line. Don't let your guard down until you really get to know them. Don't reveal personal information that can be used against you at some point.

[James_Likes_PPL]

As a guy I can say yes. Specifically becuase he would feel like he’s not being enough for you. Why do so badly need more friends? Does your boyfriend meet all your emotional and social needs?

[pink_and_inlove]

I feel like a bit of a loser sometimes for not having friends besides it’s not healthy that I rely so much on him I need a friend too he’s had a best friend for more than 20 years and he has many friends but I don’t even have one so if anything were to happen between us I would be crushed because he is all I have

[pink_and_inlove]

So that’s why I need a friend

[Handybody129]

Just curious, why does it matter where you found them?

[pink_and_inlove]

I just would feel embarrassed if my mom told people that the only way I could find friends was online

[Handybody129]

Hmmmm why do you think she will shame you that way? It is just as easy to say you are so unique and driven to be yourself that you have found some perfect people to connect with by looking for those with the same passions...

[slatyb]

It will be weird only if he makes it weird. If he does, then he’s not the man for you.

[Caliguy88]

I don't know. I moved states once and tried to find guy friends on there with no luck. Girls might have better luck. I have a female friend who moved out of state and met some girlfriends on there.

[Avicenna]

As Long as You’re being transparent about it, I don’t see a problem.

[Surely]

As long as he believes that you are only interested in finding female friends and not looking for guys.

[bannacookies]

Its not odd. And if your boyfriend had a problem with it, he'd be acting insecure.

[anylolone]

It's not going to work. Don't tell him, he'll think you are stupid.

[Deku2009]

Yeah completely fine a true test of ones love is being open minded about normal friends

[Starman5]

I'm glad you found girlfriend. It wouldn't be weird if you told your boyfriend that

[Abdulwahh]

Yes lol he will find it strange because bumble is where girls meet boys

[UnknownGagsUser]

I thought it’s a dating app? Lol..

[pink_and_inlove]

It depends on what you choose it’s either for dating, to promote your business, or to find your friend I’m on the friend version

[UnknownGagsUser]

Nice.. do tinder even have something like that? Lol

[pink_and_inlove]

Nope

[Lanadelrey26]

Lol I'm on the bff version too

[GoodGuyBreakingBad]

Yeah your almost 20, I don't see it being an issue

[Gwenhwyfar]

That’s great!!!

[pink_and_inlove]

I hope that it works they seem like great girls

[Gwenhwyfar]

Awesome 😊😊😊
