    I'm curious if you are "ALLOWED'' to have "friends" of the opposite sex? Or is that a no-no?

    Spouses and girlfriends come and go. Friendships seem to last longer in my experience. I would never again marry someone who wouldn't "allow" me to do whatever I please.

    That's probably why there's no women lining up here.

    My wife has male co-workers that are friends, though she doesn't really socialize with them outside work.

    I try to NOT have any female friends, too complicated because of my uber-sexiness, women just want me and it very hard to keep faithful to my wife.

    Its true.

    Seriously.

    Heck yes, I'm allowed! Hubby is allowed too; goes to the occasional movie with a female buddy from work...

    Does your significant other feel it's inappropriate to have a "friend" if you're in a committed relationship?

    I know some women who have male friends but they don't broadcast it to their lovers.

    I wonder if this question is asked in relation to the world of the Jehovah's witnesses or everyone. If it's everyone, I learned years ago that both parties have a right to have their own friends and their own individualities.

    It's not a JW thing.
