I have my first relationship with a guy. I have girl and guy friends. he has 0 girl friends. is this bad of me that I text my guy friends too but not on a daily basis or is this bad? I have 0 interest in them, we usually play games online. but is this disrespectful? I told my boyfriend about this but he doesn't like it. but I feel restricted of freedom. but again, this is my first relationship, is this normal? I really love him so I want to do the right things but I also want to make sure he's not controlling me. thank u so much.

There's only one person that can control you and that's you

You can listen to what he says and understand it and then turn it around to see how it would feel if the table was turned

Yes before a relationship we all have our friends the same or the opposite sex

Depending on how strong of a person or how confident your boyfriend is will come out as he's talking to you about your friends before your relationship with him

If he's not confident with himself he will tell you that he just doesn't like it
If he likes himself actually if he loves himself and he loves you he's going to believe in you 100%, and he's going to trust and respect you 100% and whatever happens happens he knows that he cannot control you and he shouldn't even think that way if he does he's wrong

But when a person is confident with you confident within himself that's when you have to look at him and say okay if he was texting his friends that were girls and they're just friends and they're just playing games how would you feel see that's the thing you have to weigh out when you're in a relationship have to look at both sides because there's two sides to every story

But at least you're smart and you're aware of somebody maybe trying to control you and you need to pay attention to that always I understand his point of view I understand your point of view I've gone through this myself and accepted the individual to do the right thing whatever that might be for them

No. It is not bad. As long as it just friendship, then it is fine. You ARE allowed to have male friends. If he has 0 female friends, that is his problem.
