I don't like this idea, it's ok if he has female friends but not a best friend.
Is 'murderous rage' a feeling? >_>;; It's not that I don't trust him exactly, but being so far away means I can't go by normal gut feelings.
"a best friend they feel attracted to"...that spells it out for you.
Well she told me that they tried it In the past but it wasn't suitable for them and they decided to remain friends. Even if she was a smidget attractive to him I'd trust her completely cause she wouldn't be foul our trust
She knows how I feel about that. Her research on our horoscopes tells her enough.
It wouldn't bother me that much. I trust him but not other people though so I think I would be more comfortable with mutual friends
He has one and he was attracted to her, but their time has passed. Same for me. It's not a problem unless it affects our relationship.
It is fine I trust her more around just about everyone
She does what she wants anyways so why not.
As long as she can hang with me too, and knows her limits, as well as him know his, why not. No secrets.
He has a female best friend and she is really nowhere near a lady. They talk about sex and share very personal details with each other. She tells him everything, even when she gets nipple rings. She had the nerve to slap him in the butt in front of me. If a woman will do that in front of a man's wife, there's no telling what she'd do when the wife isn't around. So, no! I don't think it is ok.
I am not a fan but then again, if she were to cheat that is telling me how she feels, i can't be angry about how she feels about me...
Honestly, if I know her, I'm fine with it. He has a few female friends he is close with, but I trust him completely and I know he wouldn't stray away. Plus, cheating is overrated. If you're unhappy, leave! Lol
Trust requires unanswered questions.

Nooooooooooooooooooo! I'm jealous
I'm his best friend and that's the way it's gonna be. I'm not down with no other chic in the way. It aint happening.
