Am I Been Unreasonable. by lawrenzooo: 3:13pm On Jun 17, 2018
My girl and i have dated for almost four years. We love each other but she has this male friend am not comfortable with. I have spoken out about this problem since year one and uptil now the problem still linger.

People have told me am just been jealous and i do agree with that but what i still don't understand is why she is finding it hard to deal with the issue.

Need i mention that earlier she was using some of my female friends to justify her action and now for a long time now i have dealt with my own side of the problem yet hers is still unresolved. Lately it has been the major friction in our relationship.

Its not like i feel they are dating but am nt comfortable with their friend.

Am beginning to ask if am just being unreasonable with my demands.

Make the bold move, tell her to choose between you and the friend

Hope you are planning to marry her before you start to decide on her choice of friends
Re: Am I Been Unreasonable. by SawOnPedia: 3:23pm On Jun 17, 2018
You are not being unreasonable. You are supposed to be her best friend, she shouldn't chose any man over you. If it makes you uncomfortable she suppose reason with you, if the role is reversed you will be begin her to accept you back right now. 4 years is enough time to know what you want and same for her.

P.S. I dont believe in opposite sex besties

Dated the same girl for 8 years whom had all these good male friends. Got into her things one day and found her diary, she wrote all the men she has screwed and behold most of them are people I know, people she said were just friends. And this was after we started dating telling by the time she got close with these people so.

Trust me if she isn't leaving that guy because of you there is a chance she loves him more than she does you.

OP you need sit her down and tell her to choose between you and the male friend if you have done away with your own female friends cause of the relationship.
By the way I don't subscribe to a person having a very close friend of the opposite gender when in a relationship cause most times they go beyond friends
Re: Am I Been Unreasonable. by lawrenzooo: 3:48pm On Jun 17, 2018
My female friends have all given me the space our relationship require. Why is difficult for her is what i dont understant.

Re: Am I Been Unreasonable. by lawrenzooo: 3:53pm On Jun 17, 2018
Have sat down with her the last time we had an issue. I ended the relationship and she said i should give her one more opportunity. After that she said she told the quy he was causing friction in her relationship. She came back telling me she had drawn the line. But what am seeing lately portray a different picture and when i spoke to her about it she said she has drawn the line. Its just that i have not started seeing it

Broh,,, just like someone commented up there,, tell her to chose between you or the guy...


They may be having an innocent relationship now buh there is every possibility it will turn dirty someday,, especially when things go south between you and her,, she will take the sadness and worries to the guy and from there ...........

Can you provide more details dear? All I know is that she has a male friend you're uncomfortable with. What about him makes you uncomfortable? Were they in a relationship together previously? Do they behave inappropriately with each other? Does he overstep boundaries? Did she know him before you? Etc. Or is he a friend of hers who's genuinely respectful of her relationship with you, but just happens to be male, and you're just jealous?

You said she used your female friends to justify her actions and you dealt with your own side of the problem, what exactly did you do to 'deal' with it? These extra details will help create a more clear cut picture, cheers
Re: Am I Been Unreasonable. by MissRaine69(f): 5:38pm On Jun 17, 2018
I am conflicted with this as I have two very good friends both Male and I have known these guys all my life. That said I have to compromise not that it has ever reached that stage but should the person I am with express his objections it has to be something that is discussed openly as I am not keen to feed insecurities.
With friendship there are boundaries be it Male or female.
How much do you actually know about this guy? Have you tried to know him that way you can have an informed view of him as a person? Does he even know this is how you feel? You admit that part of this is also due to your feelings of inadequacy as she ever given you reason to doubt her fidelity?


What I disagree with is making someone choose that’s a threat if you start these habits like this in the dating phase what will it be like as a married couple? You should have not yielded and got rid of your female friends especially if there was nothing to hide.

She's screwing him . Don't fall for that bestie nonsense its old.
Re: Am I Been Unreasonable. by lawrenzooo: 6:30pm On Jun 17, 2018
I meet them together as friends. She claim they really have never been in a relationship. she once told me her elder sister once accused her of dating the guy and bla bla bla which she said was not true. In a way the said guy seem to respect our relationship.

About my female friends. I had two particular one's that was so close as well. Each time we had a fight with my girl i call either of them for a meet up and before you know after chatting with them for a while i forget my problem. She started complaining about how often i visit them and because i had people to talk to and feel good each time we fought and also meant i could go todays or more without making effort to resolve our problem. When it was becoming an issue i had to reduce the meet up with my female friends. when they call i tell them am a little busy and with time to got use to their busy friend and that was how the line was drawn with my own female friends.

He is someone I know and i really have not discussed it with him. though she said he has spoken with him about it. She has not given me reason to doubt her yet but i then the fact that she is finding it hard to deal with is beginning to make me worried.

You have to devote your time more i hustling and becoming successful financially. Once that happens, you won't need to worry about her again, she will be the one trying everything possible not to loose you... I'm telling you this from experience.
