I wouldn’t be too happy if my hubby was besties w/someone he used to get naked with.

It just wouldn’t sit too well w/me.

And I don’t think there is anything abnormal or unreasonable for feeling as I do.

He insists nothing has been going on for a long while (apparently they never "dated" but fooled around when they were young). He was extremely forthcoming about all of this. And honestly, it would be fine except for the fact that they can be a bit touchy feely sometimes. Also, she's very very pretty. Also x2, I feel like he's making it a point to not bring her around a lot. Which could be a good thing or a bad thing? I am all for men and women having opposite sex friends and I really like this guy but... am I making a big deal out of nothing?


Obviously you do have a problem with..

Ah yes if a woman is unsure of a situation she must be insecure.

That’s nice dear. Again it seems your situation is not at all like the OP.


Yeah, OP is a controlling psycho and PP is not. LOL


Exactly! She'd be doing the bf a favor if she breaks it off over this.



Omg! I wish I could be cool as you and not be bothered by my boyfriend groping his female friends and kissing on them.

The touching and the history of hooking up says everything you need to know. Their relationship occupies a broad territory. Right now, they are camped in Friend Zone, but sex is part of their terrain. Run.

+1. What does this mean?


Other than a hug hello or goodbye and maybe an occasional pat on the back what physical contact would be acceptable?


I'm PP and I agree. I think "touchy feely" is a huge red flag. I don't know any adults who are touchy feely with someone of the opposite sex without being an SO.

Nope. People grow up and relationships change. When your bestie has a gf/bf or in a relationship you no longer take priority. Just like it’s not acceptable to spend all their time hanging out with buddies and not making time for you it’s not acceptable for you to be snuggle buddies with someone’s SO. This is part of life and growing up.
