Why Would A Man Hide His Female Friends From His Girlfriend?

Why do men do this?

To the men on the forum if you are in a committed relationship with a girl but you have other friends that are girls do you try to hide them from your girlfriend is yes why? and if no why? if a guy is doing this what does it mean?

Well, I'm not in any relationship. But what i think is that most girls become very jealous seeing their guy with other girls, which might cause them to start a physical attack with such girls, not wanting to know how the girl is related to the guy (probably a secondary school friend, a neighbour at home, etc). So the guy, knowing the type of person his girl is, tries as much as possible to avoid her seeing him with other girls.

but i think if the guy is open about his other friends from the begining and has nothing that is being hidden then the girl would have nothing to worry about

but if the relationship is purely platonic and there is absolutely nothing that anyone could even see to say that there is a possibilty of something else going one why would the girl give you grief?

contrary to what most guys might think, hiding your female friends from your "chic" would in my opinion be a stupid thing.

hell, let her get jealous and know she's got some competition. you are a hot boy. believe that.

The fact that i'm dating or married does not automatically shut the door against female folks.
I'll let her know i've got other friends but she's the best of them. She's got to deal with it.

Its suicidal trying to hide your friends from someone and its impossible keepin only 1 female.Its too much burden. 
As they say there are at least 3 women in evryman's life.

Oh Yes! I'm a jealous lover but that doesn't mean that my lover won't have girlfriends. Guess what! I will let me go to club, beach, parties u name it without me. He can even go with group of friends or one of his girlfriends and I won't mind but once I can read something in that relationship with his girlfriends then I'll step in. For fact that I don't have his last name, I'll quietly leave him. So........Yes guys u can have your girlfriends but there are limits too.

For trust sake, let your partners know of any other friends you have please.

It gives room for peace of mind and brings in absolute trust in each other, or else you'ld both die hunting for each other's secrets, possibly through your mobile fones looking for call records or text messages of each other from unknown names.

No matter how little the friendship is, better tell the truth to your partners

Girls are evil. They have meaning to everything.. that's why guys hide stuffs like THIS from them. Although i don't like the idea.

Well... I wouldn't hide my female friends from my girlfriend. If she's got a problem with the way I deal with them, then she should talk to me about it, instead of getting jealous unnecessarily. Coommunication is essential in a relationship. Women should, at least, try to be reasonable.

Yes it is true because,
some guys don't believe a girl can have a male friend with no string attached

 I do hide my female friends from my girl, not because I have been cheating on her, but because I wouldn't want her to be jealous. But I just realised that it is better to make her know you have female friends ie laying your cards on the table. I think that will make her know you better and really come to trust you.

When my boyfriend and I first got together he told me that he had a best friend that is a female. He said they never had sex and I was cool with it but as time went on I started to notice that his female friend called him a lot. Everywhere we went she called; it seemed like it was always me, him and her. I had to tell him that the calls were a bit too excessive and that she needed to respect the fact that he is in a relationship now. They have cut there phone calls down but sometimes I wonder if she is such a good friend why is he with me; It is very hard to deal with her but I love my boyfriend and I have accepted that. I also have a close male friend. I wish I didn't have to deal with her but I know thats not going to happen.

Honestly, i wouldnt mind as long as they have a purely platonic relationship _{and i  can see that they do} 

  Oh we'all know the answer to this. Girls tend to become so jealous when they see their dude with another girl.

The brother is simply trying to avoid all thz problems with his babe. The more reason not to show hz female friends.

i have always heard this saying that if a guy hides his other girlfriends from you then it means he loves and cares for you and dosen't want you to no,but i think it just dosen't make sense.its bullshit.why should he even double date you?
