At what point when you are dating someone new do you tell your friends about this person? After a few dates? When you're "official?" Or concrete time periods such as after a couple of weeks or a month?

 

Other than my best friend, I usually like to wait a few months before telling all my friends because I don't want to speak too soon in case the relationship crumbles early on. I also want as little external interference as possible from my friends. Don't get me wrong; I think they are great people but I've had bad experiences in past relationships.

 

But at the same time, I feel bad withholding a big secret from them. Some of them feel slightly insulted that I don't reveal this information earlier so I'm beginning to wonder if it's normal for people to tell their friends sooner rather than later?

Only if they ask...and they generally don't ask... :rolleyes:

When I'm excited about someone, I usually tell most of my girlfriends about him.

When at least one of the following conditions is true:

 

  • if they ask;
  • if we're talking about relationships;
  • if I'm really excited.

If it goes further than a one night stand. :)

 

Now meeting her is a whole different story.
