A large percentage of married people do this in my experience and I’m 67 and married almost 40 years . People who want to stay married that is. I’ve seen them come and go.. Why tempt fate. It’s human nature . It’s not like you can’t have friends either.. she can have friends that a man I can have friends that are women just don’t get too friendly. We’re only human and it happens to everybody. It’s not like you never look at a person of the opposite sex. You can’t help it. And I mean, look look.

I have many male friends
Hubby has several female friends
We've been married 32 years and never once have we discussed setting limits on who we can be friends with - especially not based on gender

So maybe a better question for you is why this is a question in the first place? Do you think your partner will cheat on you? If they are that kind of person it won't matter if they have friends or not. If they want to cheat they will find someone. Yep - it's that simple

You've got a lot of really good answers in the responses
But perhaps you want to look more closely at why you are asking the question in the first place. And even more closely if it's your partner asking this question because that's a big ol domestic violence flag
