I've been there & got cheated on because I trusted him with her. And then asked why I didn't like them still talking. They continued & we split. & she was the one who also told me I didn't deserve mine after she had a stillborn. And I lost mine. So my hatred towards her still remains.


I'm not worried about her, I'm worried about him taking advantage of me being gone.
I think we are both strong willed and in love. Nothing will break us because we are meant to be.

I have a female best friend and she has a male bestfriend and is not a problem we trust each other


I trust him with all my heart but I don't think its a good idea. It will eventually cause problems with the relationship.


Not a good thing


I'm way to jealous for my husband to have a female best friend.


Married over 26 years, we've had close friends of opposite gender throughout. We're Very committed, open and honest with each other and have never experience infidelity because we love each other deeply and trust the boundary process - we are two separate individuals who have the right to live
our lives by our own convictions and together we creat beautiful synchronicity <3


undecided


It depends on if they share a romantic history or not. If they don't then I trust him enough to be ok with it.


Jealous


I'm ok with this


Not good at all


Not too ecstatic about it but it's not like I have much choice. Whatever.


Bothers me bc when she's around it's awkward and she's never made the effort to try and get to know me.. And when I try it feels unwanted kinda


Will I have a male best friend and long as he know where thing stand with us we get along fine. He Expect my feeling and course it good for you to talk to the opposite sex sometime so long as you have trust it should be ok.
