would you drop your best friend for a bf/gf if they asked? (55)
casinogirlsioux city, Iowa USA1 Threads 116 PostsMy best friend is a male, we have been friends for 3 yrs and go out and talk about everything. Just as if we were best girlfriends. I was dating a guy who said he didnt like the fact that I had "jim" as a friend and I spent to much time with him. Even though I told him we were best friends nothing more. Well I dropped the guy I was dating. I have started talking with another man and told him my best friend was a male and he said he didnt like that either. Should I leave this part of my life out?

If a guy can't accept that you have a male friend, then he isn't ready to accept you for who you are.-JMO-

Thanks for the male opinion on this , I also agree that I should keep my friend but so far it has seemed to cause problems.

Just a matter of finding a man that is secure with himself and doesn't have the insecurities of a little boy.

Exactly right. No insecurities.

Do what u want. If he can not take it, then too bad for him. Or just don't tell him and date more than one guy. Who cares what people think.

A 'real' best friend would not ask you to choose between them and your partner.

I agree ,my best friend Andy is male (obviously
) we grew up together and have shared most of the things we have went through in life "kids being born ,new jobs ,new dogs" so if i was asked to choose -like you - i would do exactly the same ------ This thread is Archived ------

then female it is what it is I wouldnt leave it out------ This thread is Archived ------
I believe that ANYONE who would ask you to not see your bestfriend(be it male or female)has very low self-esteem and they should get their own life, not worry about yours. I wold NOT drop my best friend for anyone........ever.

And of course that works visa versa..
Its all down to security, or lack of..

Yeah you need to find a secure man, but why not date your best friend you already get along together and probably make a perfect couple, good romances start out as best friends, just a thought

Ditto that.

Exactly. If this friendship were going to be anything more than that, it would have by now. I have a few close male friends, and any man I'm romantically involved with has to accept this as well.
Only an insecure person gets jealous of a friendship with the other gender that was already in place before their advent into one's life.
