For me it would be the same sex because were gay but it's ok as long as she doesn't make me feel jealous over the person


I'm good with it. She has known him way longer than she has known me so I'm not gonna stop it. Plus I trust her completely :)


I have complete trust with him so it's not a problem at all. I know he loves me and even though I know you can't always trust another girl with your guy.... I trust him and know that if a girl ever tried to make a move on him he would not only put a stop to it but he would let me know what happened. So no worries at all!!!


Honestly....I don't like it. Every interaction he has had with them have always been conveyed to me in a lie of some sort. If I have met the person and feel that there is nothing funny going on, then I am fine. But if I am never invited to hang out with them-as in, it's only them all the time, then it might progress into something more negative than me just being okay with it.
As far as ex girlfriends and wanting to be friends, that shit doesn't fly with me. Especially when there was a form of cheating one way or another. It is extremely difficult when he is so scared of hurting everyone else's feelings and letting them down, when in the end, he is only hurting and disrespecting mine.

It depends, I get jealous, but I am getting better with it. I trust him 110% but sometimes can't help but question new girls. Once I meet them its fine as long as they are cool with me, which most of his girl friends are awesome and we all get along!!



I have no problems with it and think it is healthy. Its a fine line to walk but we have trust.


Not a problem. Lesbians FTW.


As long As they don't try stuff without my permission


Treason.
Thanks for bringing this up.

I am totally cool with it!! I have no fears with her and other men! I am her soulmate and she is committed to me!


I'm okay with it as long as there are no hiding or complaining to the other of areas in our relationship. Being involved with that friend and knowing there is no hidden agenda are key.


Lol it ok


It's fine when I know I can trust


As long as I know about it andhe doesn't complain to her about me, it's okay I guess. Going to lunches and after work drinks is another story though. ;)


I'm insanely jealous so I don't like him having female friends unless I know they are safe.
