Is it alright to have female friends while you have a girl friend? I'm going out with an old friend from high-school this thursday and i havn't told my girlfriend of 8 months yet. Does she have any right to be angry? Should i cancel my plans on thursday? I don't have many friends because i'm working a lot and i'm a busy person that doesn't get out and meet people, so i can't really afford to lose the friends i already have... any thoughts would be great!
What? That's ridiculous. If you've been dating for eight months, she should trust you, and trust that the girls you're going out with are what you say they are--just friends.
Obviously, don't lie about it. And don't cancel your plans either. If she gets mad, you have some serious issues to tlak over.
Hmmm... If I were his girlfriend, I don't think I'd be comfortable with this. Reverse the situation. If it were your girlfriend going out with a male friend... Would you be comfortable with the situation.
Course, you could probably circumvent this by inviting the gf to go with you. If there's really nothing hokey going on, then you shouldn't have any problems with her coming along too.
Plus this will re-establish in the other girls mind that your taken, and committed to someone else.
Me, I avoid going out with guy friends by myself while I'm in a relationship. I think that's asking for trouble from every which way I could imagine. If I want to hang out with one of my guy friends, I make sure that it's on the up and up. Meet during the day, crowded places, tell my bf, and also ask if he'd like to join me. I try to keep it as non-date like as possible, so that no one gets the wrong impression.
I think that silly. If his only friends are girls, he should just stop having friends in order to keep up this relationship that undoubtedly will not last as long as eight friendships will?
My boyfriend's best friend is a girl. I'd be the most selfish person ever to tell him to choose me over his best friend.
I think you should definatly include her in the plans. I just found out that me bf had an affair with his "friend" for almost two years. He had a completly separate live two hours from where we live. He said he had to go there to "work". Going alone is just inviting hurt feeling and problems.

I'm not sure if you're naive, or if I'm too jaded. I have yet to meet a man who is friends with a woman who doesn't want to shag her. Some men are decent and moral and don't act on their desires if they have a girlfriend. Some men still fantasize about the "friend" while with the gf. Some guys just don't give a fig and do both of them. But I still have yet to meet a man who isn't sexually attracted to his female friends.
The ones who aren't sexually attracted, aren't friends with the woman.
Men: Correct me if I'm wrong. This has been my experience. You think with the "wrong" head 99% of the time anyway. But I've polled guys, and they've all said the same thing. They're all sexually attracted to the female friend and if they had the opportunity (either by being single, or cheating) then they'd nail her in an instant.
And I'm not saying give up the friendship. I'm saying don't take her out on a date and lie to the gf. Keep it on the up and up, and no one gets hurt.
So are you gonna tell the truth or are you gonna lie?
I would never lie! That's just digging a hole that i don't want to be in! She knows my views on cheating (i'm strictly against it), and she's gone out with her x a few times, i trust her completely but i'm not sure that she trusts me!

Obviously, you don't think she trusts you otherwise you wouldn't be here.
