well in my relationship, i can have male friends only because i know and can trust me. he definately can not have female friends. i dont trust women at all. (the female friend)

MM
Does that mean you do not trust your partner? If you do, surely you can trust that he will behave appropriately in the company of a female friend. No?

Pucks, since the beginning of time, some women have fought against each other, competed against each other,and made comparison to each other assets, whether it be money, education, property, kids, spouse/boyfriend, their body size, shoulder length hair, even finger nails, and the small bottle of nail polish.

In response to:
Is it acceptable for your partner in a committed relationship to not want you to have friends of the opposite sex?
For instance if your girlfriend/boyfriend or wife/husband likes to go out with other women/men and your not around.
Be honest, how would you handle a situation like this?
This is the newest thread that comes up on the forums when I sign in. I've tried cancelling my membership, have tried to contact CS staff, to no avail. So ...Help.... an attempted post to get the process moving...or not......D'oh!

I was in this situation, where I was the other woman (only platonic). I even helped him find his relationship thing. When he got engaged, she saw one look at me (and then the ultimatum I assume) that he not see me again because, (she had this suspicious mind, our 5 year platonic relationship would change) because she was like that (in her past he said).

In present reality...I would accept any friends (not ex's) of his that he brought into our relationship BUT NOT any new ones he could develop.

As long as he realized I was first and they always were second..

In response to:
Mychelle, that is what i am doing. i have not been calling or initiating contact.
She still contacts me usually to complain about him though. So i am being as neutral as i can. i cant help if she contacts me, we are friends.
I had a relationship where he would not confide in but to his friend (one male I knew of, but women, I am not sure).
It was obvious,
our relationship did not last.
How could I get to know him when he never talked to me?????
YOu are intruding on there space,
because,
she cannot confide in her husband.
And,
You are not him.

Also, I HATE IT when both men and women COMPLAIN about their mates.
Why are they with them then>
All these people are doing to the listener, is creating unhappiness to the recipient of their truth (life cercumstance).
Besides,
As I have seen it,
they may cry on YOUR shoulder,
But,
NOT TAKE YOUR ADVISE>
Coundn't you spend your time with someone who could appreciate your wisdom?
By that I mean, you could see them grow.
Listening to a complainer day after day, is boring? don't you think?

I am wondering PUCKS if you have a hard head or that Hard hat on!!!
If he called you personally,
then you are intruding on their space .

In response to:
Brace yourself - because it may well happen. It is really hard, and I think that it gets harder as you get older to lose a friend. L.
It could happen to any one at any time, to lose a long lasting friend...to me, it was not his advise but the activities we did together, like flying in his plane, etc. i NEVER SAW HIM AS A POTENTIAL MATE, I was not attracted to him that way. We just agreed to be friends together. Even his dad, wondered why I telephoned him because he always had a girlfriend. But I did not have a boy friend and I learnt that being only (no sex or kissing, no touching at all) platonic prevented him from including me at his family affairs, like Easter, Thanksgiving. I guess, I should of said something, because I knew his girlfriends, knew about me. (platonic friend for years); I actually had 3 (one lasted 10 years).

Today, I have given up platonic male friends because it is too lonely.

Hey Pucks,

Just a thought here, have you tried to become friends with him as well? Maybe go out for a beer or two, see a game or whatever interests you. I think it would help him lay HIS problem (fears) to rest and maybe realize that you are not a threat to him at all and you all would end up winning. Worth a shot. peace
