One of the main problems of friends having boyfriends or girlfriends is the jealousy that they feel when they're spending a lot of time with someone else.
For instance, in August I've invited one of my friends to go to Reading festival. We've been best friends since secondary school, now we work together and have been talking about going for years.
Since she's bought her ticket, her boyfriend has done nothing but complain, about the fact that she's bought a ticket and the fact that we're going to be going with a few boys.
Now I know that a lot of boys might get paranoid about this, but the line "It's not that I don't trust you, I just don't trust everyone else" is getting pretty old.
I'm not one of those people who are likely to let my friends disappear off with other boys. I know how much cheating ruins relationships and trust, and I know the long term effects it has. Since these two have been dating, and arguing, for around three years I'd have thought that they would trust each other a little more than people who have been together for two months.
My problem is partners that won't even let their boyfriend, or girlfriend spend time with their friends. When you want to go out with your friends but their partner won’t let them because there are going to be members of the opposite sex there.
Where is the trust in a relationship if you can’t even let your partner go out with their friends? If that is the case, than surely shouldn’t you consider ending the relationship now?
If your partner did the same to, than you would put your foot down, complaining that they’re trapping you in the relationship.
Here’s an idea, how about you trust the people you’re going to settle down with. And if you seriously feel that you can’t, end the relationship now. People are only going to end up hurt and you’re never going to be happy unless there is unlimited amount of love and trust between you both.
