I just bullshit with them, they are usually chilling and making jokes so naturally for me dealing with my brothers my whole life I just treat it like that. And now they all act like my brothers, actually showing up more than my biological brothers even.

If u have friends of the opposite gender before u start dating that’s fine. If ur going out of your way to find male friends in response to ur bf having female friends, ur relationship is already cooked

unless you have existing common ground with them already it’s going to be pretty tough to establish a platonic intention with men that are strangers to you lol

Literally just be normal and treat them like you would anybody else lol. Don’t fall for the heterosexual bullshit of “if a man and a woman spend too much time together they’re GUARANTEED to have sex! Oh boy oh boy!” Virtually all of my close friendships are with women in long term romantic relationships and it’s fine

well in theory he should also have male friends and then you can be friends with them as you get to know them better

Yep, if u feel the need to compete to prove that ur also popular with the opposite sex, then there’s too much insecurity in ur relationship and ur not healthy for each other
