Why are men so against their girlfriends having close male friends?

Anonymous
I've noticed this a lot and I feel like it's only because they as men know how men in general are. They have been/are attracted to their female friends in that way and they know that's more than likely the case with their girlfriend and her male friends.

So on that note men and women really can't be just friends because there will always be some sort of attraction present.

Talked about this with a potential boyfriend. He mentioned how he thinks it's ok for us to have friends of opposite genders. Yet he complained because he noticed how guys were commenting on my posts on fb. One specifically, I mentioned wanting to go for a drive and talk about life. He signed about the fact that he couldn't imagine me just wanting to go chill with one of them late at night... I guess it's a double standard for men.
