Opposite sex friends

How would I react? Im a guy and if I had a GF that had a male friend she was getting drinks with, especially one she was previously sexual with, Id give her the choice, "its me or the friend," if I got dumped for putting forth that ultimatum, than it would prove that she cares more about the friendship than the relationship with me. Consider that for your own situation.

Lying is terribly damaging in a relationship and I would seriously inform him/her that you take it as a serious infringement and if you find him/her lying again *insert consequence here*, I usually go by the 3 strikes and you're out rule with lying.

 

I would make it clear in the beginning of the relationship what the bounds are then trust him/her until he/she shows disloyalty with you having evidence to support it, I would not spy/snoop/get jealous as this is not productive/supportive and only make things worse. If your S.O wants to grab drinks with the opposite sex then let him/her, whether he cheats on your or not is in his/her jurisdiction but before he/she has committed the crime I wouldn't support accusations as any relationship is based on trust, are you going to live the rest of your life in a relationship with someone who you can't trust?

 

Note that you stated "a" friend not "the" friend so I'm assuming that friend of the opposite sex is not the same one as the one he/she lied about?

Hi Shooting Star,

 

I'm don't with her, but just like to know what people feel for future reference more than anything. I've never had mistrust and never had a partner lie to me like she did.

 

It's still shocking how easily she lied and how there was no guilt or even an apology when the truth came out.

I wouldn't even give her the choice. You already caught her in bad behavior and know that she'll do it again. Just break it off and find someone you can trust.

 

Guys are always giving girls too much credit when girls playing stupid and say things like "We had sex a few times last year, but we're just friends now.. like brother/sister and are going out for drinks." One, if not both of them, still want to hook up. And both parties know this is true.

If my boyfriend lied about sexual history with a friend I don't think I could forgive it. If he didn't mention it and I didn't ask it would probably make me uncomfortable, though I'd likely forgive it, but I wouldn't be comfortable knowing they were going out for drinks together.
