Do you think it is a red flag for a woman in a relationship to have predominantly male friends, a male best friend, or no female friends? (Page 2)

Question

Personally, I think it is a red flag and have never been with and will never be with a woman like this.  Why specifically? I think it will be too much of a headache to talk to a woman reasonably why I don’t like this without her calling me “over protecting,” “insecure,” etc. To me, I don’t think it would be worth it, UNLESS the woman is reasonable and can also see my side and not just be isolated or stranded on her own island of beliefs.  I’ve never had any issues with women intimately/sexually with regards to them not having male friends.  I do think most of these relationships and marriages WILL fail and HAVE failed. Some thoughts of mine while thinking of this question:  “Does my mom have any male friends that she goes out with without my dad?”  “Does my mom have a male bestie, who isn’t gay, while married to my dad?” The answer to both is NO and it is weird to think of such a thing working out in a marriage or relationship.  There’s just something inherently unstable with these within normal heterosexual relationships in my opinion.  Something unstable and deceitful. “Deceitful” meaning, understanding of platonic friendships between people ends up being more than just platonic in a short amount of time if not at the very beginning.  Thoughts of sexuality and intimacy begin being a thing very soon.

It's a big red flag... women who have many male friends can't be trusted
