does your dh/boyfriend get mad because....

[Anonymous]

You have male friends? Did u have to drop your male friends? What do you thunk about a man who gets mad because his woman talks to other guys?? Red flag?

I dont have male friends out of respect.

The only male friends I have are the ones he's friends with.  I'm friends with all of their wives.  So there's nothing to even get mad about.

My 2nd best friend is a guy.

Hubby doesn't care. He knows nothing unkosher will happen.

I have been friends with this guy for 13 years and nothing has happened.

No dh doesn't get mad. In fact one of my friends stood up in our wedding. I don't have secret male friends though, I have nothing to hide in my friendships.

I just think they are insecure and need to trust the person they are with or they shouldn't be with them if they can't trust their SO. My husband trust me so he doesn't mind if I have guy friends.

 this. I have a few that I will respond to or like something they post of fb.  I do not hang out with or see male "friends" outside our circle out of respect!

Quoting macysmom:

I have several male friends all of which DH knows.



I've always had more guy friends than girlfriends. My DH knows the guys I hang out with we have a good relationship our trust has been tested and strengthened thru out the years. Sometimes I'll go to lunch with a bunch of guy friends and my DH is ok with that as long as I tell him who and were I'm going, and I do nothing to hide here.

My oldest male friend is from college, I went to visit him about three mos after DH and I started dating

I told my now DH that I had known this friend longer and if he had an issue with it I would choose the friend over him!

[olliesmommy2]

No. We discussed this type of thing while dating. I have primarily male friends, I worked many years in a male dominated field. I told him my friendships where important to me and I wasn't prepared to get rid of any of them for him. But there would of course be boundaries. Before I would go out solo with all my guys to the bar, now, no.
