When Girlfriends Drew the Line: 16 Men Who Abandoned Female Friends and What Happened Next
I guess what I’m trying to say is pick and choose your battles. It’s not worth losing something with potential over a casual acquaintance. But stand firm if it’s a dear friend who has always been there for you.
Depends on the situation … if I am spending excessive time with my female friend alone then there is clearly something wrong and it’s fair enough to ask. On the other hand if I only see her when out with other people, or at work, then it’s a different matter.
I think you gotta be honest about how your friend is acting to your girlfriend. If she’s getting all territorial you gotta have a talk with her and stand up for your girl. But if she’s being chill and your girlfriend is just not okay with you being friends with a woman, you’ve gotta really dig into that.
I think most men would simply decline if it is a truly platonic relationship and an unfair request.
If it’s a fair request (it often is), then I’d say there might be other issues than that one girl that’s a problem in the relationship – so simply removing her from the equation won’t really make a difference.
I dont keep female friends so never had this issue
Word to the wise is that there is a big difference between a friend and a *friend*. Hopefully you have the self-awareness to understand the differences and why under some circumstances, the ultimatum is entirely reasonable and would be the wise choice.
A lot of clingy or controlling women will try and isolate you from your friends and even family. Keep you exclusively for themselves. If anyone makes ultimatums, it’s going to be for personal self interest…. not yours.
It’s not even female friends, but friends in general. Its not uncommon for gf’s to not like someone’s friends and want you both to hang out with their friends almost exclusively. I’ve seen this quite a lot, sometimes people drift away and disappear from your life. Others that embrace everyone end up being happy and constructive.
Straight up dude, if they’re asking that, it’s genuinely because your female friend is a pick me girl, or because she’s controlling.
I definitely block all ex girlfriends on social media when getting in a new relationship to respect my new woman, and if necessary, have demonstrable evidence that I’m prioritizing her and not going behind her back.
Nope, it doesn’t end. They just move on to the next area of your life they want to control. It’s a red flag, get away from anyone who issues an ultimatum like that.
There will always be something when it comes to women in a relationship. Unless the friends are toxic to you never give in when the woman makes this demand. She can kick rocks.
