Do you believe in "bros before hoes"/ "chicks before dicks"?

[Razp_Sorbet]

Basically do you believe in putting your friends before your significant other?

[Anonymous]

No, It's bullshit. Most guys will betray another man for a little bit of pussy or money. I knew a guy with a girlfriend who told him to cut most of his best friends out of his life. But, when she left him all his friends were pissed at him and he had no one left. He begged the girl to take him back, but she refused. A lot of guys will fall for that. The guy will start off asking her for permission to hang out with friends and then after that there will no more friends. She'll get bored of him because he's depended on her to get his social needs met. He loses confidents and does whatever she says. And then he's disposed of like he did to his bros.

[OlderAndWiser]

"Bros before hoes" does NOT mean that guys sould place their friends ahead of their female romantc partner. It means that a guy should not pursue any sexual or romantic encounters with his friends' current or former romantic interests.

[tatianamay]

My SO comes first. If its a dude im hoping to date, then yeah, the "chicks before dicks" applies, but if its my SO, then i like balancing between both. That being said, my SO would be my #1 priority, but friends are important as well. If my SO asks me to not talk to my friends anymore or is picky about who I hang out with for no reason at all, then thats not good.

[Little_Bumblebee]

I would but my close friends before a new guy.
But if I was in a very committed relationship where we loved each other, then he would come first.

Just because I start sating one or have sex with them, doesn't mean they suddenly become more important than a 5+ year friendship.

[Diodoro]

The saying doesn't apply to relationships. Bros before hoes refers to girls you're just getting to know/trying to fuck. Putting her first over longtime friends would in effect be disloyal.

It's saying be loyal to friends and established relationships. A girlfriend/boyfriend is an established relationship.

[DonkeyDan]

If its soneonw casual and a friend needs me, my friends come first, if we're actually talking SO then obviously they come first but she should be a friend anyway. I don't priorities my male females over my female friends or vice versa, a friend is a friend.
In reality it depends who needs me or my help the most, and if its a friend who needs me, I'd like think that my significant other would understand that, and not throw a tantrum because I'm going to the aid of someone in need.

[ChrisMaster69]

Well your SO should be your friend first and foremost, or why you in a relationship.

there is then a priority thing applied which also includes common sense view of it.

example,

SO in hospital for a cut hand

Sister in hospital for minor surgery

best friend in hospital following a serious car crash

In the above, best friend wins as the others are going to be fine.

[TheorionMage]

Among the hetero males I've hung with... its ALWAYS been 'chicks before dicks'
MOST males will always break ranks for a sexual opportunity; its evolutionarily 'instinctual'.
Males are evolved to BE a genetic DNA syringe!
I've NEVER felt MORE 'alive' than when I'm frenziedly driving myself as deeply as possible in someone I'm aroused by. When my fiery semen floods and is awash into her Cervix... 'stuffin her muffin'!

[Lliam]

Fuck no. That's immature, school age thinking.
1. When people get out in the real world, they realize that they can have both male and female friends.
Not every friendship with someone of the opposite gender has to be about sex.
Members of the opposite sex are people. To think they are "other", like some sort of opposition or enemy, is bigotry.
2. If a person is in a healthy, dedicated relationship, they put their partner above all else.

[FriendlyDrugDealer]

Normally yes even though I have a few female friends who I do treat like bros but I just call them sis instead. I’m someone who takes in advice then I sit on it and analyze it then make a judgement call. It’s not easy but I’m traditionally going to lean towards my friends because they always have my best interests at heart.

[t-8900]

my SO is always going to be the focus of my world. Friends come and go, women come and go, but only one will give me the things i really want in this world. Love, admiration, family/children, nurturing, this can only come from a woman for me. And it needs to be my woman.

[KrisPW]

Only if you're just fucking around and don't care about someone. Once you find a possible "someone", they should have your priority. And if they're a good "someone" they should also respect your friends and want their approval as well.

[Ninani]

I believe in prioritising healthy, strong relationships and being there for the people who are there for you when they really need it, but it's still important to have boundaries and be able to pursue other relations without any guilt.

[ShaTTeredMasterpeace]

My significant other? No. But if it's a guy that I'm just interested in, then sure. It's all about balance for me. Because while I won't put my significant other last, I also wouldn't just shit on my longtime friends for him either.

[The_Maphio]

Unless the other is actually significant, indeed.
Friendship is a powerful kind of relationship, and unless someone who is worth spending your life with pops up, friends before headaches on heels every day of the week.

[Anonymous]

Yes. I have friends, that were with me before and after the relationship. She decided to ghost me for someone, who makes more money than me and therefore spoils her with gifts and meals and other expenses when i couldn't afford these at that time.

no regrets. My friends are still active and with me 😁

[CaliSixx]

My male friend says this about us all the time. He's doing pretty rough with his girlfriend and every time he rants about it he always says "welp, bros before hoes" and that's the motto we live by

[Gwenhwyfar]

That’s cool that you have his back

[whynothoe]

while i believe all relationships are important, i believe a balance of the two is the goal. no one ever wants to feel left out because their bestie got a new man

[DaveJord]

Depends on what the situation is, but in general I am not blowing off my friends for a girl... unless she's doing that something special for me. In that case my bros would totally understand,

[SweetDumplings]

I wouldn't want to put anybody before anyone I feel that's choosing between sides and I just don't have the time for that so no I wouldn't, it's choosing sides and I don't want to do that.

[Sarahr123]

No. Husbands before everyone. Once you’re married it’s just husband and kids + parents/siblings. Basically blood relatives and husband.

[TonyMetal___86]

Wise answer...

[melanieeeB]

Yeah I would never ditch my true friendships for some guy.

It's a different story, when it's just fake friends.

[LiamSawyer]

A significent other such as a girlfriend in a commited relationship/fiance or wife would be my best friend and lover. She would be my number one and everyone else would be second to her.

[jshm2]

Don't be daft. It's a platitude to ease both sides.

There are times your friends come first, there are times your SO comes first. Trying to appease one side only gets you nothing in the end.

[TheSpaceGnome]

No.

Female friends are how I would get a significant other, and she would be my best friend, more important than any other person to me, and also hoes are not worth dating, I want a girlfriend who isn't a slut.

[Not_Average]

Not really. I’ll gauge each of my relationships individually. I don’t have a blind devotion towards men. One of my friends opposed my girlfriend at the time and now she’s my wife 🤷🏻‍♂️

[Ekke118]

No, and even if I did value that I wouldn't dismiss half of people as either hoes/dicks even as a joke.

[Blackcupcake]

no... lmao
I have equal amount of love and loyalty for both, just in different ways so I'd never choose one over the other

[dustybiker]

Isn’t your significant other supposed to come first? Have each others backs? Friends come and go.

[Slim57]

So do relationships

[dustybiker]

@Slim57 Putting friends first is a quick way to end a relationship.

[Slim57]

Then maybe she should get some too

[dustybiker]

@Slim57 Sounds like she has plenty

[RichSD]

No, that always leads to unhappiness. Friends will come and go in your life, and almost certainly none will last your whole life. But your spouse might, so don't be a dick.

[standardguy]

That would be wrong.
It can be that during the first months of a relationship the couple is stilk not that near but at latest when they marry, the marriage partner must be much more important than best friends.

[Dinklex3]

When people say that it's usually not in regards to your significant other.

[FTnWo]

Well considering my best friend switched me out and the next dude I was real good friends with tried to fuck my chick FUCK NO

[Anonymous]

Of course. Friendships are very important. We must not lose any of them for just a boy. They were always there and always will be. And dicks are easy to find for us (girls) so not a problem 😂

[NetSapien]

My friends know to not come between me and my girl. I don't have sex with them.

[NathanDavis]

I'm a grown up...

so I have no time for juvenile bs that is not even a thing

[jasco]

No unless my friends have proof that my SO is doing something she shouldn't be doing than why would I believe them. I love my friends but if you wanna accuse anyone than proof to me why.

[RebeccaBI2000]

My SO is always first. The saying usually refers to High School times

[Myk13]

in my opinion Bros before hoes is just as it says. Not Bros before significant other or Bros before wife.

[humpbackjack]

With a girlfriend it would depend who the bro is but my wife would come first for sure

[bean2k21]

It goes a little deeper than that, my female friend. Mu ha ha ha ha.

[razzmatazz009]

Yep definitely believe it. I especially believe in not putting anyone ahead of my kids.

[snackthatsmilesback]

No. I prioritize my friends fairly highly, but my wife is the most important person in my life.

[TonyMetal___86]

No way, if i was in a serious relationship than she will be my 1st priority cause she will be the girl that i'm going to marry.

[TheBigGuy9]

Yes, because all my friends are level headed and we always look out for each other’s best interests. Of course a lot less when they’re married.

[ChiTownLov]

In a way, yes. If we had been together for a short time, and my friends were in dyer need, I'd help them out before her. If together for a long time, it becomes a thing I'd try to respect her.

[jason_1233]

It's never a clear cut situation. I try to be logical about it and it depends of the situation.

[Ironic_Method]

No. My SO is my best friend. I'd trade all of my friends if it meant keeping her.

[Twalli]

My SO was a friend, and I haven't had a social life since February 2020. I much prefer the one I can have sex with over those I can't

[Quigly]

I don't believe in being isolated in a relationship from others. But I wouldn't totally ignore her either.

[Snakeyes7]

I agree to an extent. I think friendships should still be maintained even when you're in a relationship.

[SteveSmith1985]

No. That's dumb and juvenile.

[Jamie05rhs]

I used to, when I was a teenager. But not anymore. I'm a grown man now.

[Shy_Steve]

No, I would much rather put my significant other first.

[collie22]

i might seek advise from a friend about my relationship first

[MisterTee]

Most of my friends are girls and they advise me on my girlfriends so I guess this doesn't apply to me 🤣 I'm always with girls

[Hadesheim]

Neah that saying is just for men that are not deep and can't connect ro others through their soul and energies.

[Shiningtempest]

@Razp_Sorbet I am a strict believer in "bros before hoes" because I am certain my bros will help me in times of crisis.

[Jayplays900]

Depends on how the relationship between the 'bros' and the 'hoes' is going at the moment.

[cookiecrusher]

Not really an issue if you pick good friends and women

[imfreeze95]

How about whoever is in the wrong gets flattened gender be damned

[Anonymous]

Nothing before nothing people are runied no much trust left in them no more morals or ethics everyone wants to be first even if that will leave you in bad situation. Just my opinion

[Dinosaursandanime65]

I prefer “God before Drawels”. It rhymes enough to be good, don’t say it’s cringe

[LegendaryIcon]

girls are a dime a dozen. if she's making me choose between her and them, next
