Absolute, positively double-standardized bullshit.

My boyfriend is allowed to have female friends. I would be uncomfortable if he hung out with them one-on-one, but I also wouldn't hang out with my male friends one-on-one.

it shouldn't be, but that's the way it is. but girls have more trust issues. and get jealous easier.

I completely disagree, as a female, with this. I do understand jealously and trust issues, BUT if both people in the relationship have good communication levels and can know that their significant other is trustworthy, it shouldnt be an issue. I have many guys friends, and though my boyfriend isnt always 100% comfortable with it, he knows he can trust me. And though he doesnt have many female friends, if he did, I wouldnt mind. I know that at the end of the night he's coming home with me. I also disagree with the statement that girls have more trust issues/get jealous easier, because from personal experience, it has always been the other way around, where my guy friends were always the jealous ones in their relationships. The issue of opposite sex friends shouldnt matter if there is respect, communication, and honesty in the relationship.

It shouldn't be, but it ends up being more often than not.

im fine if he hangs out with her because they are part of the reason we are together, but if im walking to a class and they completely ignore me and continue walking. when even his friends know that he hangs out with her then his girlfriend and they give you pity looks.... then yeah it kinda does make me pissed when he does stuff like that when i know that he'd kill me if i did that to him. why is that?

if its a secure relationship, both can have friends of the opposite sex as long as they're not layin around spooning

My boyfriend has a lot of female friends and i know a few of them like him but i trust him enough not to do anything when they hang out. just like he trusts me to hang out with my guy friends. you have to trust each other. you aren't just gonna stop hanging out with the opposite sex just because you have a boyfriend/ girlfriend

It only becomes an issue if he spends more time with her female friends then me. I don't trust like 2 of his friends but the rest of them, I'm close with and I completely trust him.
