writes: My fiancee doesnt like me associating with other women. She can be very jealous. I dont have a problem with that. I can be too. I dont have any girl friends, and my interactions with women are very limited. I wouldnt hang out or associate with other women out of respect for my fiancee anyway..... even though many people have no problems with having friends of the opposite sex. My problem is that she has guy friends. I dont like the double standard. I dont want any girl friends, but why does she think its ok for her to have friends of the opposite sex? The big question is this.... am I wrong for not wanting her to be friends with a guy who she had a relationship with in the past? I think that a guy friend is one thing, but a guy friend that was a romantic interest is another thing all together.

And I agree with you. There's nothing at all wrong with having friends of the opposite sex, so long as they're just friends. But to be friends with an ex and then have the nerve to be jealous when you have female friends sounds very suspicious. You need to sit down with her and tell her how you feel. Ask her why it's okay for her to be friends with an ex, when you're not even allowed female friends. If she doesn't give a good answer (and I do mean good), then you need to consider this relationship, because it could be that you're the comfort blanket and that she's really in love with her ex. Talk to her.
