She grew very upset and told him that she was going to start dating others because of it. Is it something that I am missing? I don't see an issue with people having friends of the opposite sex.

Plus you not giving him any p*ssy, she is.

She may be afraid there is more than a friendship between the two of you. And it is possible she thinks you're more attractive than she is. Its a shame that your "male friend" didnt introduce you both. You all couldve been friends.

italianroyalty London United Kingdom 23, joined Jul. 2014	The way I see it is its like this. Whatever you say and do around your friends should able to be said and done as if your boyfriend/girlfriend are standing right there with you. As soon as you feel "ah its lucky she/he isnt here" because it could cause trouble, thats when the line has been crossed. Its simple.

Of course when the opportunity presents itself, I introduce them. And no, I'm not into 3-ways. Most of my past GF's had male friends, as long as they never dated, same for me, it's ok. Ex's are the only problem.

Just don't date anybody who's weak or feels as if they have to lean on their friends for help. There is nothing more disgusting than a partner who goes running around behind your back telling everybody what you've told to them in confidence.

I don't see an issue with people having friends of the opposite sex. Frankly, I don't see it as an issue as I am content with myself and I do trust my partner to make the right decisions and act according to how I perceived her character when I first met her. Anything else would quite honestly scream insecurity in the highest of senses. Individuals, based on your post are like that because they often project their trepidation and fears out on others and when it isn't something that they cant control or recognize, they immediately go defensive and insecure within themselves. In other words, from what i see, nothing is wrong with you and it is them who need to look themselves in the mirror....gamer

If you share mutual interests with a male friend, then you take your man with you....it is as simple as that. It has nothing to do with trust....it is called respect. Trust is meaningless if I told my girlfriend that I was going out on news years eve with a female friend instead....or maybe take a trip to vegas with another female friend. With your logic, I am doing nothing wrong as long as nothing physical happens. Respect is king and no one should date if they don't know how to give it. If you can't/won't bring your current boyfriend/girlfriend to hang out with a friend.....then they are more than a friend.
