you should talk to her and just explain that you feel like you would like some new friends maybe female maybe male, and you like the fact that she has male friends cause at least you know that if she did need someone and you wasn't there she would have someone.
explain that you love her and trust her and you would just like the type of closeness and friendship that she shares with her friends
good luck and let me know how you get on xxxxx

I dont think u need to get a "female" friend, if you care about your girlfriend then don't jeopardize your relationship. `if you feel intimidated or threatened by her friends then try and talk to her about that.
It sounds as though you and your girlfriend have an open and honest relationship, so it shouldn't be so bad...

 It sounds like you might be trying to even the score a bit...if not, maybe you need to talk to her and find out why she said no way. Does she have a jealous streak? Is she insecure? What's the problem? Are you friends with the guys she is friends with? It sounds like there is more to this story, and I would love to give you some advice, but it's difficult not knowing any more than what you've already said.
