As long as there are no secrets I think it's fine.

If you trust your partner then there should be no problems. If you don't trust your partner then you might want to re-evaluate why you dont.

I don't see a problem with it.

I am with you whiskey, my ex has a female friend who I am certain meant a lot more to him than he would admit, she got married and moved to America, he used her name as his passwords and in the last years of our marriage when she visited it was the only time I saw him get dressed up and be really keen to go out anywhere.

Two of my very good friends are male.. The one i have known since i was 12, but i only keep in contact by phone as he lives miles away, but we talk, three or four times a week, and another friend who lives near and he has become my hubby's friend too .There have never been any problems.. hubby knows he is the one and only XXX

I say that because most of my freinds are male(mostly because of my job) but I find that too many people "assume" things. My ex also had numorous female friends(some of which were actually his exes) but I never had a problem with it so long as I knew everything which I did.

No secrets.

And even now, that our marriage has dissolved I still have my same friends and he still has his.

Nope nothing wrong with it provided it doesn't develop into a romance and hurts others who may be just as important in our lives. I have two good male friends and their wives trust me cos they know I feel very strongly about stealing someone else's man.

I get along better with men than women usually and most of my closest friends are men and they're all married. No problems. I agree with Whisky...people jump to conclusions and make assumptions without knowing (or in some cases having no interest in) the facts.. Some people are only too willing to think the worst about others.

It depends on how much time they are spending with them . If it's more than they spend w/ their spouse then NO. It depends on how much they confide in them. If more than their spouse, then NO. If they meet or see them at times when the spouse doesn't know about then NO. If they are prettier than ME... than a BIG NO... hahaha!

    My 6mo twin DD's are EBF and just started rice cereal on the first. Everything has been going fine except this morning one of them had a diaper rash (lots of redness around her anus). I read this as one of the signs of an allergy. BUT I did just buy a different brand diaper yesterday (which they have used randomly before w/no issues). Do you think its the cereal or the diaper? Im ready to start...
