I think its awesome. As long as everything is above board & the friend completely respects the relationship, why not I say?
it would hurt me because I want to be his best friend
It wouldn't bother me if I trusted him.
If I was closer to her it'd be alright but if I don't know her she needs to run along somewhere else.
It would bother me. I've been with my partner for 6 years and we are best friends. I think that if there is another women as closes it causes issues. I also believe that at some point a man and women become friends because one of them is romantically interested in the other, and this become friends because the other doesn't want to be involved romantically... So there is still that interest from one party.
I hate it and for ever will now being as I got burned. In my mind it can't work
jealous. :((
Don't like it. Super close friends if the opposite sex lead to adultery. I've got my guard up.
I like chicks
Insecure
It depends, I'm close with people that I've shared a common experience with both my gender and the opposite sex, but we understand I believe
not very well but he like to get some strange once in a while .
The problem is she's attracted to both sexes... With that being said I trust her completely. It's the other person I wouldn't trust in some instances.
my husband does as well as I do we have been together for over 25 yrs we trust each other and we also know the others best friend as well
I would be jealous and suspicious but I would trust that my partner would be faithful. I'd still be suspicious of the friend.
