Should I allow my girlfriend to have male friends?

Answer 1

Just because your dating someone doesnt meen you have to stop hanging out with guys. Its your choice. If he trully liked you, you bf wouldn't dump you because you hang out with other guys. You hung out with other guys before you dated him and you can still hang out with guys when your dating him. You can do what ever you want to. So of course you can still hang out with other guys. I had a bf and I hung out with a bunch of guys because they were my friends and no boy was going to tell me who I could and couldn't hang out with.

Answer 2

Yes. You cannot control who her friends are, just like she should not say if you can have female friends. Doing something like that is going to cause problems. If you don't trust her or feel jealous, then you need to re-evaluate yourself and your relationship.

Keep in mind that as someone's boyfriend or girlfriend, you are not their parent. In a mature and healthy relationship, you do not allow or not allow. You talk with (not at) your other half and come to mutual understandings. You communicate and try to respect each others feelings and wishes. You give trust until you are given a reason not to.

On a personal note: As a female, my best friend since childhood was a male. My high school sweetheart knew that my best friend and my were a package deal from early on. He trusted me and was okay with that. We got married a few years after high school, and my best friend was at the wedding. Now, after 17 years of marriage, I still have the same best friend. He and my husband are very close, and he is like an uncle to our children. If he had tried to cut an important person out of my life, not only would it have probably created some bitterness, he would have lost a future good friend himself. Maybe try embracing her friends, and it very well could make your relationship with her all the better.
