Not really a fan, I get jealous easily so it's not good for me to know he's talking with a girl best friend but I do trust him so I don't mention it or call him out or anything. I try to keep quiet and let him live his life
no problem. does she like threesomes?
i used to get jealous, but now i've gotten pretty used to it
He doesn't. But I trust him 110%.
Depends on whether I know the other person.
hmmm.. she had one earlier but not anymore if I have to trust her. But her mere friends are ok irrespective of the gender.
Uhhmm...NO. A friend, no big deal. A BEST friend? That would be my place.
Hmmm if he's your best friend and you're attracted to him then we shouldn't be together. A general friend/acquaintance you happen to be attracted to is fine.
Not a fan, but I trust her.
it’s fine for me as long as I know who she is.
I'm ok with that... _I'm_ the one she comes home to each night, and there's no question I have absolute trust in her.
I dont liek it very much. I had a best friend who was a guy and he didnt like it so I gave up my friend for him but he isnt willing to do the same with his best girl friend...
I am really mixed on this one. I think if my husband weren't secretive, was emotionally connected to ME, then I wouldn't mind it at all. I am good friends with men, and know there are lines I won't cross, and I feel very comfortable with those friendships, he on the other hand, I think would feel betrayed, hurt and angry if I went to lunch, hung out, spent time, talked, or were in any way shape or form 'close' to 'other men' regardless if it was just a friendship.
He does, and he even admits to having a huge crush on her at one time. Which, lets face it, crushes aren't something people tend to lose really, but I trust him. I trust that he wouldn't hurt me. It's all I can do. :)
I do not mind. I fully trust her.
