I don't mind if my partner has friends of the opposite sex UNLESS he or they have given me a reason not to trust that they are just friends. In that case, I wouldn't want him to hang out with that specific person because their intentions are not in the right place or I may need to evaluate our relationship if I felt he is the one I couldn't trust.
i don't mind it either way, cause i decide to trust my partners. so when they tell me they are "just friends", i trust that they aren't gonna cheat... even if they find them sexually attracitve. cause i wouldn't do that either. and if they do it, well... they're not the partner for me.
I'm not 12 anymore, neither is my partner. Having friends of the opposite sex is the most normal thing in the world, why would I have an issue with that.
If there's one thing that should make you suspicious about a (potential) partner, it's when they aren't friends with ANYONE of the opposite sex. That should ring your alarm bells.
I would not care if my partner has friends of the opposite sex. Since I would have friends or acquaintances of the opposite sex as well. Im not about to control their friendships that are healthy if there is nothing sketchy going on.
It's totally fine by me unless it's one of those flirty friends cuz those guys do exist
Sure when they do that it might not actually have any sexual or romantic motivation behind it but it would still tick me off to no end but otherwise it's fine
I am fine with my woman having friends that are males as long as there is nothing more than just a basic friendship. Meeting new guys and becoming friends I’m not sure though never really know a strangers true intentions and she wouldn’t be ok with me hanging around a new girl I’m sure.
I feel it's all a matter of trust. I either trust her or I don't. (For the record, I do implicitly) I know most of her male friends too. Heck I play rugby and go to football matches with some of them.
I don't have relationships with women I don't trust. That being said it would depend on the nature of their friendship. If the dude was undermining our relationship somehow there would be a problem.
I'm okay with opposite sex friends, but not best friends. As long as the friends respect boundaries I couldn't care less. And as long as my female friends respect boundaries, it's cool
I personally wouldn't care as long as everything is completely honest.
For example, she wants to spend the night at his house.. Hard no, it would result in some serious conversation and possibly divorce.
Bottom line, if she cheats, she's just revealed her self to me and it gives me freedom to kick her out of my home.
You are setting yourself up in a huge way. If she had "really good guy friends", why isn't she dating one of them?
It wouldn’t bother me unless they were being inappropriate with each other and crossing lines.
But if they are just platonic friends then that wouldn’t bother me.
I honestly don't care. Hahaha. He can handle himself, no need for me to try to babysit and monitor his playdates. He's a grown man 😂
Um, ladies, try this... call any of your guy friends and say "my boyfriend is out of town and I am super, super, horny; you wanna come over and smash"? 99% chance he will say "Hell yes"!
I would make that bet with you.
I'm not at all bothered by my partner's having friends of the opposite sex.
I wouldn't want her to have NEW opposite gender friends. No gay people would be allowed in my home at all.
It depends on how much I trust my partner and if I think his female friends are respectful
I wouldn't like it if she restricted who I could talk to and be friends with! However, my ex-fiance started cheating on me with that freedom!
That’s out of the question they’re called bi for a reason I don’t want a bisexual guy hitting on my girlfriend i’ve seen too many stories on here Male friends wanting the girl that’s his friend
I worry if my girlfriend or wife will commit adultery or cheat and I am highly against polygamy (why do rich men, gold diggers and hood video channels worship this by the way?)
At the end of the day most of us end up married and to me personally I wouldn't wanna be friends with someone of the opposite sex if I was with someone unless I know id never want to be with that person or they are a childhood friend
