[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Twenty years ago I'd just started dating my husband (much more introverted than I am, started dating end of freshman year)  and was a sophomore in college. We went to a Halloween party. He got tired and wanted to leave. He said that there was no reason my night should have to end if I was having fun. I bumped into a (very cute) man who was in one of my classes and he asked me to dance. We ended up party hopping / dancing at a few parties. He knew I was dating someone else. At any rate, at the end of the evening I said good night to him and want back to the dorms and crawled into bed with my (now) husband. He asked if I'd had fun. I don't expect everyone to be that understanding but appreciated that he was going to be a relationship with trust and not much (any?) jealousy. If you're extroverted, naturally flirtatious, or not ready to act differently this man might not be for you.

Oh, I'd forgotten that on a earlier date to a BBQ with a bunch of his friends whom I didn't know my husband had asked if I was embarrassed to be with him. I was really surprised because I'd been trying not to be clingy / cramp his style at all. I guess I want overboard giving him space. Other that discussion when we were figuring out each other's preferences I don't remember it being a problem. [/quote]

Hanging out with a male friend is different than going to a party as someone's date and spending lots of time in other men's faces while he's there.

I trust my guy to hang out with friends too, but that talking to females while I'm there as your date WHEN WE'RE JUST STARTING OUT and building trust is a no no.

You and your bf already had an established foundation. You can't assume he'd be okay in the situation very early on before he knew he could trust you.

It was likely seeing how you behaved at parties with him that put him at such ease later on.

When you two are at parties, your bf never talks to a woman beyond basic greetings?  :roll: [/quote]
