It doesn't matter if they are male or female, gay or straight...if they are good friends and have been since before he met you, people most often would choose friends over "lovers" if given the ultimatum. After all, who knows them better and who has been there for them. If she is gay then you shoudl have nothing to worry about.

YOUR RIGHT men are dogs and it's not always the girls fault  for what they do (i admit sometimes it is) but I do think that your friends are using the fact that you are angry with men in general against you.  They need to ask themselves if they would feel the same way you do if they were put in those types of positions.  Don't stay mad thought cause one day you will meet a really nice guy that deserves you and you don't want your bitterness to ruin that.  And NO it isn't you I'm married to a  faithful man and I feel the same way you do.

No.... I think that if a girl doesn't swalow a mans spurm that it is a insult to the man. So no I wouldn't be mad at you.

They can. I have a guy and girl b/f's. The guy and I have been friend for almost 8 years. He's my friend. And that's all he is. I love him, but not like that.

Don't ever let anyone tell you who you should be friends with. If you are more comfortable being friends with girls, then be friends with girls. Whether you are homosexual or heterosexual, it shouldn't matter. There are many different men and women who feel more comfortable being friends with the opposite sex. \n\nIf you are heterosexual, the other guys are probably jealous because you have so many female followers. They either see it as you can date them easier, or that you are keeping the girls from dating them. Either way, it is not worth your time nor your efforts to deal with someone who is going to put you down because of your friends. \n\nIf you are trying to figure out your sexuality, then you should try talking to some homosexual peers, or a counselor. Sometimes just finding out if your feelings are shared by others can help. \n\nGood luck, and if you would like to talk more about this, please don't hesitate to e-mail me...I'm always here to help!

Been there with my best friend. She did that to me a few times, but I finally had enough and told her if she didn't find her own men, I was not going to be around her anymore. Its a trust thing: You trusted her with the knowledge that you liked this guy, and she went ahead and screwed around with him....Not Cool!!\n\nHowever, if the guy didn't know you like him, then its not his fault. If he did, he holds half the blame.\n\nI'd do the same thing again with my best friend, I'd let her have it! My best friend decided that she'd rather be my friend than have anyone I liked!!...GL;)

Simply put, would you tolerate any of your girlfriends hitting on your boyfriend?  Treat this "friend" the same way.  Just because he is gay, does that give him special privileges?

Not unless you did something you shouldn't have while out. Let your girlfriend know that you are just friends with them and that's as far as it goes. She shouldn't be like that over friends. Does she still have guy friends she hangs with?

Yes. I have a male best friend. He is really cool. I have also got several other friends that are male. We are so close that we probably could never date, but even if we could i am not single. It is cool to have a guy best friend. They can give you a point of view sometimes that is way better than a female can. Even though females are good friends too, it is always good to have a male friend on the side to help you when she can't help out with your problems.

Your mate is either angry with you and has a problem with you or your mate is experiencing other problems.  Find out and sort it out.

If I were dating this hypothetical person, then I wouldn't be mad about it provided that he immediately pulled away and put a stop to it. He didn't do anything wrong.\n\nIf I were him, it would depend on the circumstances whether he should tell his gf about it or not... like who else is at the party. If there's any chance that someone might run and tell her and blow it out of proportion, then I would go ahead and be the person she hears it from first. \n\nIt's a double-edged sword, because she could be really mad at the girl. If there's a trust issue, she could also be mad at her bf. It depends on the individual. \n \nSticky situation there, but hopefully she would trust the person she's with.

I usually do that with my best friends, and if I don't, they'd think I got mad with them. Also I'd think there's something wrong if they don't say that to me. we say that frankly, and we feel happy to hear that. however, it is not acceptable to be told to some one who doesn't have strong relationship with you.

First off, I don't want to argue with any one on this subject. I am just stating a long researched out project that has been completed recently. Man and women where not designed to attract one another for simple friendships. Usually,  if someone says they have the opposite sex as a friend, then one of several things has already occurred. They have either already crossed the sex line and decided that they were not meant to be together. Another reason being, one or both is gay, or the man and woman are living  clear across the country and never see one another. Or\nmaybe the man is castrated.  OK, .... I will say, there are those 'few'  exceptions, but not enough for me to allow my husband to be friends with another woman, and he says the same. Examples are always good, so how about, although fictional, but still an example, set com, "Sinfield"...Elaine and Jerry or The "Drew Carey" show. Regardless its just human nature for boys and girls, ending up facing sexual tension between the two.

Yes, it depends more on the people involved rather than their respective genders. What would be any different about your boyfriend having a gay male friend or you having a lesbian friend? Real relationships are based on trust and center on more than sexual attraction.

Yes, of course. friend ship between opposite sex very possible and very good and healthy. But always avoid meeting each other in alone. And if possible have friend of good age difference, preferably elder age.  Good luck.

They can if the have no other feelings besides being friends. I have guy friends and we know each others limits you just have to be sure you want nothing other then to be friends
