It's more of what works for you as a couple. My wife has male colleagues who are close friends with her and I don't feel threatened by them; she knows her limit. When our first child was delivered through CS, the first pap she would take was brought by my own close female friend (someone I intended to marry years back) who now happened to be a nurse in the ward, and she was there for my wife till discharge. When there was a problem at the early stage of the pregnancy, it was that same friend of mine that made sure my wife was attended to on time by calling the doctor at the emergency (UCH, Ibadan) and claiming my wife is her inlaw. I don't like to be caged, so I don't cage my wife. We know how far we can go, and we live our lives with God's grace.

Thane:
No

please can people quote this comment with places on the Lagos mainland with steady power supply. I'm planning to relocate but power is important to my decision. Cost is also a factor
Also, if you are looking for a flat to stay in Ibafo, I have an empty room in a 3-bed. flatmate needed 70k

It depends on type of relationship, maybe is church ppl, Evangelist, neighbor, office colleague...


In dis part of the world we are, it drpends on d type orientation and upbringing that your partner is might not support it cos any day that ur partner travels, anytin can happen...


Some Women might not hold it dan to confess to d partner DAT was a mistake, jus like d Augustina and jaden issue


For me, I don't support it except in d office but not to start paying me a visit at home....

PHIPEX:
They can be familiar or close colleagues but not friends. There is a difference between a colleague, acquaintance and a friend. Friendship runs deep and I can't allow that for my wife neither will I keep one.

A friend is someone you can easily run to at your moment of happiness or weakness which are the most vulnerable moments, why should it be an opposite sex whose intentions can change any moment?

paulolee:
not even alllwed for my girl to try that when we are dating not to talk of courtship or marriage..
the only male friends that my girl or wife is allowed to have are my brothers and her blood brothers and also her cousins aint allowed too..
Reasons- girls having male friends and besties have done more harm than good in relationship...thats my opinion, thank u

seanwilliam:
If you can define the term "friendship " then you will find your answer...



Nonsense

pappilo:
Never! It is never okay if one of the 'friends' is in any sort of relationship.

My ex-wife started off as friends with a colleague. But once she started hiding to take calls from him, it was obvious this was more than friendship.

Like a bad Nollywood movie, I ended up out of my own home, sleeping in a freaking cold garage that had been converted to a single room while her friend ended up in my warm bed and became the de facto dad to my kids.

Fear women o!

mcdokwe:
them having girlfriends can negatively affect your relationship more than a male friend.

I had this girl, we were even intimate and the man that married her knew as much, of course he was jealous and wanted her to end it with me but she made it clear she won't do that and stood on her grounds that he should call off the wedding if he was going to make the request again.

We are still friends and she knows she's married and set her borders with me (e pain me sha) to the point we had spent nights on various occasions but still respected our new borders. By far the best of friends I've had not minding the gender.

I agree that I might not be comfortable with the idea myself, but it depends on who you're with, how trustworthy they're.

A woman who hardly kept male friends may still have multiple extramarital affairs even right under your nose without you suspecting it.
