Would you feel comfortable with your partner spending the day with an opposite sex friend?

[Anonymous]

Yes, I would feel comfortable

No, I would not feel comfortable

I trust my partner and would not have a problem with her spending the day with a guy unless I was specifically excluded from participating in the day with them.

In October-November, she took a 30 day trip back to China and I stayed at home, working and waiting for her to return. I trusted her to be faithful. If she wanted to cheat, our work schedules are different enough that she could find the time for someone else.

My rule is to trust someone - with caution and optimism - increasing my trust as I get to know them, unless and until they give me a reason to not trust them.

Yes I would be comfortable because i trust that she wouldn't and I should know the guy and trust he wouldn't. I have a lot of friends that are woman some I've had sex with or a past intimate relationship. But my girlfriend has been around them and know them and should trust us that we are just friends. It;s a tough thing because I need to allow my girlfriend the same trust, however I like to point out that my girlfriend hung with a guy she use to have sex with before me and I have never spoken to him or met him and I think that is wrong of her? Am I being a hypocrite? I hope not but definitely don't like it?

[Moirine]

Definitely. It's all about trust and the type of relationship they have and the type of person your partner is. My partner hangs out with his female friends all the time and more than he does with me simply because we live far from each other but he doesn't give me a reason not to trust him.

If we are transparent about things that are important for us, then why not?

I have male friends and he for sure would have female friends. It's matter of trust and respect.

Depends on their dynamic, but it would put me a little uneasy considering the length. But at the same time I trust my partners that nothing happens. So would it put me out of my comfort zone? A bit, I think any monogamous partner would be. But not enough to prevent her from doing it or anything.

[NathanDavis]

yes, we've both done a few times through the many years... and it has never been an issue

I've also spent time with friends of mine who are girls... and their boyfriends/husbands were not insecure about it ether

trust...

[iFarted]

It always depends on the dynamics and history. In my younger years no.. as I got older yes.. I've learned that I have to trust my partner. If I don't then the relationship isn't going very well. Also, if she's going to cheat then go and cheat, we can go on our separate ways. Save us both time.

I wouldn't mind because I'm not the jealous type plus before my partner asked me to be his girlfriend we were best friends through all of middle school and high school so we've developed a lot of trust from being friends for so long

Why put yourself in this situation? A big part of maintaining a healthy relationship is not putting yourself in situations where bad decisions can be made.

[Nikki1989]

Yes, we have been doing it for many years. We are not insecure and we trust each other.

[GoodGuyBreakingBad]

If I had a girl, and she had a male friend, I would hope I could trust her with a male friend.

[andreasderjuengere]

For sure comfortable.

Because the night before, and the night coming will be for myself and her :)

[worldscolide]

If it was an ex, fuck no.. If it was any other male friend, and she were completely transparent about it.. sure.

[Alex-Snow]

Sure I would trust her until proven otherwise

[Guido]

Yes. We have total trust.

[RevengeofLadyJ]

Not sure probably not

[Jmmmfi4]

NO--
