In a relationship, one doesn't DEMAND anything. It's a partnership, and had nothing to do with tolerating friends. She has her friends, I have mine, and that's perfectly okay to continue friendships.
I’ve lost a lot of female friends to marriage. I’ve even grown more distant from male friends whose wives think I’m a bad influence (usually a laughable idea).
Also, I have a lifelong female friend. I know enough about her past, I would never trust her in a relationship and, even if I had no morals, I’d never sleep with her because I know some of the guys she’s been with. If she doesn’t have herpes, she’s the luckiest woman on the planet!
It’s okay if my female friends are sluts, as long as we’re just friends. If I wouldn’t be friends with sluts, I’d have almost no male friends.
That would be a disrespectful / inappropriate request…. You would have to be a very insecure individual to make a request like that…. or not trust your significant other
I would tolerate, with the understanding that if lines are crossed, that’s ground for automatic dismissal. No questions asked, no asking for forgiveness, same for me!

Nope I don’t care if she has friends of the opposite sex.
And no I wouldn’t get rid of any female friends I had.
Depends if they have like all opposite gender friends. I probably would just avoid her anyways and not get into a relationship with them.

As long as they aren't younger woman I don't mind.
It will be encouraged since there is natural attraction there or they would not be friends
Idc if my girl has guy friends it seems like control to make them not have guy friends
No? Wtf kind of manipulative shit is that? lmaoo
I wouldn't care as long as he wasn't fucking them behind my back or anything
What no I would never tell my boyfriend to stop being friends with other females because my best friend is a guy and he's fine with that
No, but if they allow their friends to undermine our relationship, something is going to happen. I'm not playing that game.
demand? that would never work, but i would expect that naturally they wouldn't hang around with them alone and we would move away from them eventually
Nah I’m not an insecure 15 year old lol
plus my husband is bisexual and by that logic that means I wouldn’t allow him to have friends at all, which is bit ridiculous lol
I will have definite conditions such as no meeting that lesson unless I am present and no private communication with this person.
if she has guy "friends" then I dont have a girlfriend
No, I be no longer sour, I just be... bitter and hateful.
No. And besides we have all the same friends.
Are you east Asian?
No, my mom's from the Philippines tho
Both of your parents Philippine?
No, dad is white. I've always lived in America
Ok..
I won't tell my boyfriend to get rid of he's female friends never
Nope. But most of her male friends are married or gay
