Doesn't bother me at all
It's fine, but I'd like to think that we're best friends...
I trust my soul mate, but i am still very nervous and perhaps slightly jealous, due to my past.
"Best" friend might be a little weird and uncomfortable, but friends or close friends I'm generally fine with.
im fine with it as long as shes not coming on to him and we are friends so i can trust her...
it would hurt my feelings, i would want to be the bestie
It would depend on the circumstances, but I'd probably have concerns about it.
I'd probably be jealous of the girl and cautious with her

Would accept this if they had known one another since childhood or early in their lives and the best friend was in a good relationship. If it was a "new" best friend, Id be super bummed and very suspicious as I want to be the best friend.... all that said, anything that is honest and straightforward is possible.
well obviously that would be incredibly difficult - unless it was long established; or the person was gay and just helped her with her style (not that she needs it)
i try to be okay with it but at times depending on who the person is i have trouble
I am okay with it, i believe in my partner and have trust on her.
don't care at all.
I am OK with it so long as both partners know what the boundaries are and agree not to cross them.
It wouldn't even occur to me that there might be an issue with that.
That's what makes you so precious to me. And makes me a better person.

Ok, as long as they were not ever sexually involved.
