Tell her the truth. You like this other girl as a friend, you went out to the movies. The other girl knew you had a GF already and you didn't try making any moves on her at all. If she's still freaking out about it then it's good you find out about this now. She'll walk all over you and never respect you. Think about where it'll go from there. Next she'll be saying you can't go anywhere without her by yourself cause she's worried that you'll meet someone else. Drop her and move on before she starts carrying your nuts around in her purse. DON'T BE THAT GUY!!!!

The real question is do you have feelings for this other girl? Or feel that they might develop?

I suppose its possible to develop feelings for this other girl, but I dont think a relationship would work out....she goes to a different school, which makes it hard to keep the relationship alive.

Im desperate.......

Don't be so whimpy. Dump your gf, hang out with the other girl for a while. Give this chick the "I feel so depressed" attitude, she'll feel motherly and give you some caring.

Your girl will come crawling back on her hands and knees. Stick your bone in her mouth, then afterwards, tell her you will only take her back if she agrees not to go screwing around with some foreigner, ever again. Tell her that you don't care if they're life long friends, if she doesn't believe that you can't have friends who are girls, you don't believe that she can have friends who are guys.

Its strange, but women tend to come crawling back if you dump them. They rarely come back if they dumped you. And when your gf comes crawling back, if you're already too close with this other chick, just tell your gf to wait till you're ready to give her a second chance.

Frankly, I wouldn't be able to handle my wife/girlfriend having a platonic relationship, nor would I expect the same from my partner. It's one thing to chit-chat, but unless it's your sister or your brother going to the movies or anywhere alone, with a peer-type member of the opposite sex it's called a 'date'. If you want a serious relationship, you both should cut that sh*t out. Trust me, it isn't healthy, no matter what somebody may tell you. No matter which side of the coin you are on, and no matter what really happens, it won't be any worse than what goes through your mind when the other is out with their 'friend', and that will quickly drive you a part. No excuses on either side, I don't care if she tells you he had his weiner cut-off in a tragic farm accident, it just isn't part of the relationship.

Since it sounds like you're already fvcked with your gf, you might as well get something for your troubles and bone the chick you took to the movies. Who knows, maybe you'll like sex with her better and dump your gf.

Original thread

Well, I ended up going out with this girl. It was nice, we went and saw the hulk......nothing happened. So I get back and tell my girlfriend and now she is pretty upset. She doesnt like the fact that I went alone with her, but in england she has a guy friend over in England that she has known since she was 4 and they went out alone to a movie. She says its ok since they are life long friends and they live in different country. What do I tell her?

It's gotta go both ways. Lifelong friend or not. If she doesn't want you alone with another girl, then she should put her money where her mouth is.

But either way, there is an obvious trust issue.


Well her excuse is that since they only see each other once every 3 years, its ok and they are like cousins.

But at the end of the day, she's saying it's OK for her to go on one-on-one outings (Read: dates) with other guys, but not for you to do so. The excuse is really irrelevant. You trust her not to boink this guy, but she doesn't trust you not to boink this girl.

If it was me, either she'd drop the double standard, or I'd drop her.

Next thing you know...you'll be on your way over to that girl's place..and you'll cheat on your gf....

it's happened to countless other people before...it's bound to happen again.

Let's hope you have the right morals and ethics to not put yourself in the position to cheat. It's all about respect for another person...how sad it will be if you end with no self control..and no morals.


i am so loving my ethics class..

Has she been hurt by an ex cheating on her? Have you ever cheated on anyone? Maybe she had some history of being the victim...

Tell her ya'll didn't do anything at the movies, but when you went to the motel, ya'll did some freaky sh!t, that is illegal in most states.

Well......kinda....This is the second time we have gone out. The first time I dumped her for someone else, but then after that relationship ended we got back together. At no time did I do anything with the girl while I was going out with her, but she may have some reason to wonder if it will happen again with this new girl.

and she took you back? and you are able to LIVE with yourself knowing you hurt her and left her for someone else?

of course she'd would wonder if it'll happen again. Once a cheater always a cheater...

even if you did NOTHING w/ that other girl you dumped her for....you still left her for someone else. What's going to stop you from doing it again?

You're what I call a "controlling power-hungry untrustworthy jackoff". It's not a "date". Christ. By that count, I've been on more dates than I could count. I have friends who are female. OH GOD NO! I must be some kind of swinging player/pimp who just wants sex, sex and more sex, and don't just have friends who happen to be female.

She cracked! She said fine, go hang out with this girl if you want but just dont tell her about it, and if i find that i do like her better, tell her before i do anything. Is this some sort of trap??

Yea that's a trap. Why would she want to know if something happens between the two of you? You gotta know when to compromise and when to stand your ground - tell her that you can have female friends if you want because quite frankly you're friends and that's it. Your girlfriend needs to be a little bit more trusting of you.

Definitely a trap. See, you dumped her before and she came back. Like I said before, they tend to come back if you dumped them. if she dumps you, its over. Take a dump before she does. hehehe.

She's saying that so you'll still be hanging on with a guilty conscience. Just dump her and say it has nothing to do with this other girl since you don't have any feelings for that girl, but its because you gf has this "friend" who she sees when you're not present.

Think about this too: If her friend is just a friend, ask her to invite him over to visit the two of you and you can all hang out together. Then, in front of the guy, hold her and kiss her. Oh, yeah, the whole time he's there, don't give her anytime alone with him. See if she's confortable with it.

A. She'll resist you when he's around (bad sign!!!)
B. She'll kiss you back and he'll get jealous (bad sign!!!)
C. She'll kiss you back and he'll just ignore it like a gay person (yeah right, like that'll happen).
D. She'll kiss you back and he'll just pretend to ignore it (she'll feel bad about it if she likes him).

Tell her the sex wasn't even half as good as her, so as long as your g/f keeps her performance up she has nothing to worry about.

Tell her her England friend was the guy that suggested exploring your options, as he has known her a long time and deems her an OK friend, but definitely not more than maybe a FB from time to time.
