I don't think my wife would be too stoked on me hanging out 1 on 1 with some new hot chick platonically or not.
Pretty much the only female friends I can get away with are either from work, friends of both of ours or friends I knew pre-marriage.
I'd feel the same way if she was trying to hang with some studly dreamboat.
- what if she wasn't a "hot chick" and just a really good friend?monospaced
- I don't think she could ever evolve to really good friend if we never hang out. Old friends are different, I'm thinking about a new friend.BK

Friendship with other couples, ...I don't see why not.
Kind of weird to have a new friendship (not in another group) with someone you wouldn't hang out with, w/ your partner. Could just be me.

Ya I've kind of lost quite a few friends to marriages.
It annoying me that around 50% of my female friend's husband don't like their wife hanging out with me...
Especially when I've been friend with them longer than how long he's known her.
Also babies... Fuken babies...

you all have made good valid points on both sides of the coin.
the biggest issue I'm dealing with is the fact that my friend is single which is partly why my wife is jealous. SO it's not like we can hang out like couples. the friend would be a third wheel if we do. But I'd like to find a way to have us all hang out.
I've always had problems making and keeping friends and my wife knows that. and i'm making an effort to make meaningful relationships wit people that aren't my family members. So she accepts and respects that.
I just want to find a way to show my wife that it's an innocent and based on how my friend and I work well together on a creative level. my wife is not in the creative industry FYI.

let me ask you guys something similar. what about having a platonic relationship after being intimate? I'm in that current situation and not sure how or if it'll work out.
- seems like it could work if neither of you are jealous (and not meaning to sound harsh here), and so long as there's value in a relationship outside of sex.ben_
