Is it a red flag if a man has a lot of female "freinds"?

It really depends on the guy I have a lot of friends that are girls.. . And the reason that is is because when we meant there came a point to where we were either going to get into a relationship or we are going to stay and remain friends..

And what I mean about that is when you meet somebody you have to be 100% honest to them and to yourself you know if you really like the person and you want to be at that person and I guess go for it but if you are lying to yourself and you just want to be friends with that person to get in their pants you're going to end up breaking up sooner or later and then you're not going to have a friendship anymore so that's what I mean about being honest with each other and I've had to do that many many times and so that's the reason why I have more friends that are girls than guys really and we are good friends... Just because of all the above but that doesn't mean that I'm trying to get in their pants whenever I we go out together or anything it means that we are friends truly friends

I would think it's a green flag, because he's less likely to be sexist. There are more than a few men who think women are only good for sex, not full people worth being friends with. I'd be happy to know he at least isn't one of those kinds of people before we started dating.

Not at all. I know a few guys who bring a girl with them when they're out on the prowl. It's brilliant. She knows she's just being used as a decoy, but she gets free food, drinks and dancing. Oh, darn! Woe is her.

Just her presence, is a sign of approval from the sisterhood. It's a signal that they aren't serial killers. This technique is as old as the hills. It's along the same lines of married cheater men NOT removing their wedding ring. The ring is a sign of endorsement from the sisterhood.

Depends. If his friends see you as competition or he tries to avoid them when he is with you together, I assure you this more than just regular friendship.

[NathanDavis]

depends on what you mean by a "lot"

but most of my friends are women, that I've known for one, and even two decades... and they are my friends... not "friends"

[handsomelad70]

And you respected each other's boundaries. Good on you, pardner !!!

[NathanDavis]

@handsomelad70 we all had relationships of our own, as well...

[handsomelad70]

Which helped greatly.

[wiltingrosepetal]

No. There's one guy in my group. He's not around so he can date each of us when the time is right, he's just a friend

[SotiCoto]

It is a red flag if anyone has a lot of friends of any sort.
Loads of friends = you're extra disposable and easily replaced.

[DrPepper12]

That's not fair.

[SotiCoto]

@DrPepper12 : Fair has nothing to do with it. Your social worth in any group is the inverse of the number of people in the group.

[DrPepper12]

Maybe your groups...

[nawtee_me]

No it is not a red flag. Being friends with the opposite sex doesn’t mean you are having sex with them. How else to better understand the opposite sex than to be friends with a few of them.

[exitseven]

No, but it is a red flag if they were people he used to date or had sex with.

[ProbablyClueless]

Red flags don't always mean landmines, but yes, that should be a red flag.

[handsomelad70]

It can be, because one of these girl "buds" may be waiting for a chance to get his budstick !!!

[jahaims]

Depends on how he behaves with them and if he has been interested in them or not. I have almost as many female friends as male.

[HighValue]

Not if he already had them before beginning a relationship, but people shouldn't make NEW opposite gender friends when in a relationship.

[OtterMan68]

no, not really. It might mean he's a great guy that his female friends know they can trust

[LiamS95]

Possibly it could be a red flag but not necessarily

[Anonymous]

Is it a ref flag if a women have a lot of male friends? 🤔

[Katebfun]

But not the other way around 😅🤣🤣😆

[MrGSpotHer]

Well I only used to bother with women I don't like men so I would hope not but understand if yes..

[Pohjolan]

I thought you guys considered it a red flag if a guy doesn't have female friends?

[msc545]

Posibly - unclear without more detail.

[MrDaveAPSI]

YES, IT IS, YOU PIECE OF SHIT

[DrPepper12]

No. Not in late 30s.

[Dongie]

He's gay.

[BLP11520]

Nope I do

[eagle1951]

yeah

[guyinterested]

absolutely
