Should I worry if my girlfriend hangs out with guys too?

[Anonymous]

Hello everyone.

Basically, what I asked.

Should I worry if my girlfriend hangs sometimes with guy friends aswell and not only with her girl friends? She hasn't shown me any wrong signs to be worried, but just wondering. I feel uncomfortable most of the times. Sometimes she might hang with a friend of her (male) alone. Is that normal?

Would you let your boyfriend/girlfriend hang out with people of the opposite gender?

My man me and you and I bet a lot of guys out there have the same problem. But listen carefully to what you have to do because I dont want you to fuck up like I have with my girlfriend.

1. TRY TO NOT BE INSCURE AS MUCH as you are doing rn. Because insecurity only pushes your girlfriend away (trust me on that one)
2. trust her and be confident ( your girlfriend will love you more for that and it will show that you trust her and that's a turn on by girls)
3. DONT AND DONT AND DONT AND DONT look into her phone because again that will show how inscure you are and she won't like that.
4. APPROCHE her in a calm way on a nice date or when u guys go out and on A GOOD TIME ONLY, yanno approache her and explain how you feel but dont go too deep to show your insecurity. Just exaplin how you feel in a way that won't show that ur inscure if you know what I'm talking about.
4. You my man have to do the same thing she's doing, now I'm not telling u to go out there and cheat. I'm telling you to go outthere and have your own life too without her but dont make her jelous or do anything stupid. In my opinion I would try to avoid hanging with just one girl by myself just to avoid headaches and problems because girls think differently from a boy and they are crazy.
5. if you know and feel that her love is true for you then dont trip about that too much. Because if a girl really loves you and care about you she wouldn't even be thinking about cheating.
6. TRUST YOUR GUTS whatever your guts r telling you then it's mostly right
7. please please please please dont argue or bring it up too much because it's going to take you to a place you won't like trust me.
8. You are not alone, I'm in the same shit here, we can't do anything about it because it will fuck us up. Girls are crazy once again so let them do their own thing. All what you can do is Just trust her and trust your guts.
9. You always have the option to leave my man. If you feel something doesn't feel right then take a further step.

This is a tough one that I can't readily answer. I mean... I have met girls who have many guy friends and who have slipped up at parties and had a drunken hookup with their guy friend. I have also met girls who have guy friends, but they are good at keeping the relationship purely friends.

I suggest you meet the guy friend (s) and see how they are together... see if you can trust their relationship and see if you have any negative feelings after meeting the guy. It's hard to say.

[pure7]

Depends on how long they know each other and what their history is. For girls its normal to have guy friends.
I have guy friends and they are like brothers to me.
I can understand you are feeling uncomfortable with the idea. If its too much you might mention it? It can also be helpfull to hang out with them to see how they are.

Yes sure if she’s just chatting with these guys at school it’s just a school friend but not anywhere else shouldn’t be hanging out with these guys like at her house or vid Versa but ya when your dating someone that doesn’t mean u have to completely stop talking to the other gender just keep it respectful no flirting

[___yvm___]

Can you follow my account I want your opinions on my questions

[cozymozy]

No, most of the time it's normal to have some guy friends. They're not a threat just because she hangs out with them, so don't treat it as such. If she was actively approaching them with the idea of a relationship it would be wrong, but some people have plenty of friends for both genders.

[shawnquek]

Yup that happen I let her hang out with her best friend and she never came back. Both of them are together now

[princesskittya1]

if she's known to be a hoe then yes because chances are she's gunna come back and say "I accidently cheated" but if she's not then make sure you watch how she acts around them and when she is talking with them oh and also why doesn't she take you with her? Do you have females friends?

[katherinelc]

Well sometimes girls just like talking about the problems in the relationship or like ask opinions of other people, and want some private time with their friends

[Asker]

First of all, I would never be with a hoe. I would rather kill myself than do that.

Well, sometimes I might be home studying or have classes, so she sometimes might hang out with a friend of her after school or something. I can't be there.

[princesskittya1]

Lmaoooo same but Oohhh okay and I mean I don't know it's just me I'd rather be with my man anywhere doing anything than to be out with friends

[jennifer_bloom]

If it bothers you tell her to stop doing it

[Pamina]

So, if she doesn't give you any reason to be worried, that means you have trust issues. That's something you need to work on.

And yes, being friends with the opposite gender and spending time with that is completely normal. Not having any friends of the opposite gender is what I'd rather consider weird.

[Strawberrie]

Don't worry too much about it. I have guy friends, my boyfriend had introduced me to them due to similar interests, and we've played video games and stuff with eachother, I'm clear that I don't want a relationship with any of them except for my boyfriend. He trusts me and I trust him, he has friends who are girls as well, even some exes.

[TheUltimateHermit]

Listen little Jimmy, your significant other is allowed to have meaningful friendships with the opposite sex without it being wrong. It is HEALTHY to have people in your life of the opposite gender other than your s/o. Anyone who thinks otherwise is a toxic person and shouldn’t be in a relationship. You should re-evaluate your insecurities and let her live a happy life with her friends.

[luvstoned4him]

If you trust her then you shouldn't but at the same time, dont dismiss any gut feelings or red flags.

I've always had guys tell me that they would like too date me but worry about me having many guy friends which is only 5 (still can't believe thats too much). Anyways, once I am in a relationship with someone, I won't go flirting or cheating. It all comes down to principles and morals.

[SnowWhite13]

I wouldn’t worry about it unless you notice her being flirty with them :)
If she treats them the same way she treats you, I’d worry.
But as someone with all male friends, I can tell you if she’s truly loyal, there’s nothing to worry about. I’m actually seeing a movie with one of my guy friends tomorrow while my man is at work. And he knows he has nothing to worry about :)

[JohnnyBravox]

Nah mate you should not worrie, relationship are by default finite, weather it ends by death after decades or in a few weeks by one's own volition fact is... it ends so, jealousy tho it's a hard to stop impulse you are not entitled to it... you can't teather someone else to you just be loving and enjoy eachothers company, dont ask your partener to change his or her way of interacting with others.

[Anonymous]

As long as she’s not flirty with him and he doesn’t overstep any boundaries and respects your relationship it’s fine. If you don’t think that’s the case though then you have every right to be concerned, and as she’s your girlfriend she should take your concerns into account too.

[ZELLxoxo]

The more you restrict who she hang outs with, the more she'll start to despise you.
You can't hide her from the world.. She's not only yours.. She has friends and family.. Sure some of them are guys (maybe even majority) ".. SO What..

[Lynn0216]

Depends on if the guy likes her or not. If she’s known him for a while then there shouldn’t be a problem. Also if she is faithful and doesn’t have a past of cheating or flirting with other guys while in a relationship then it should be fine. I’d just get to know them a bit and not be too strict about it or she will feel like she has no freedom.

[Aroso]

Absolutely... Female minds are pretty volatile. Most of them break up from a relationship accusing the ex boyfriend, while the real reason is that they found someone better. Stay strong if she thinks you are a control freak let go off her, it's better than getting cheated and getting hated by everyone for breaking up.

[Kai02]

Befriending the opposite gender is completely fine. Take lessons from the bisexuals: do they have friends? Yes. And they are attracted to both sexes.

You can be friends with someone of the sex that you are attracted to

[miss_adi]

Tbh no if you trust her you shouldn't worry but if you feel like you can't trust her with other guys then you need to fix that I hang out with a lot of guys because the girls are to much drama and with guys it's less drama but if you see her looking at them as more then friends than you need to fix that but either then that you should be good just talk with her about it and don't get her mad I hope it goes well

[Renvate]

It's not right. It leads to problems. In all my previous relationships and of friends it has NEVER been a positive outlook.

Small story, my now ex is dating her friend she used to online chat with at the early start of our relationship.. this killed the trust for me and it was the reason why i ended it, I was not going to put up with this behaviour.

[hayle1]

My wife only has guy friends. The person being male has nothing to do with it.

What matters to me is if she rather do more stuff with them rather than me.

Example ask her male friend to the movies and didn't as me.

She should spent majority of her time with you compare to anyone.

If not what's the point of a relationship.

[TisforTori]

I’m cool with it because I trust my partner to be like me. Behave the same in my presence as in my absence. But if it bothers you talk with her

[theGuyWithTheThing]

If it's cutting into the time she could be spending in the kitchen, cooking you dinner and making you cupcakes, then you've got a serious problem on your hands.

I recommend getting a dog leash or an electric fence.

[Acegoolah]

Really I shouldn't be but it makes me uncomfortable. Hahaha we know why.

[Asker]

What are you trying to say?

[Acegoolah]

I said what I was trying to say. I shouldn't be worried but I am. It's an insecurity.

[Asker]

Oh, you were talking about yourself lol. Got you.

[presumably_insane]

I’ve hung out with one of my female friends and she has a boyfriend so it’s nothing really. You shouldn’t be worried though

[Wilken44]

As a girl who has a boyfriend and lots of guy friends. I personally don’t think it’s an issue. But if she starts to cancel plans with you to hang with them or anything like that than that might be a red flag
