Is it really important that your friends make a good friendship with your gf/ bf? Or Did you have any trouble regarding to your friends and lover?

Yes,your friend's opinions must also be considered. Maybe they have more experiences about love than you that is why they are just concern about you. But it doesnt mean to say that if your friend doesnt like yout boyfriend, then you have to find another bf..Ofcourse you also need to consider your own feeling that counts more than the feeling of everybody else.Remember, if they are a true friends, then they will understand what you feel coz friendship is a matter of understanding,,,and not argueing..

I think friends are different from our gf/bf.I think its better to keep a distance between them.

In the past, I have never really had any problems with balancing my boyfriend and friends. They always liked my boyfriends and everyone got a long, but in cases which I have seen where friends don't like your girlfriend/boyfriend, it does cause many problems, especially if the relationship becomes serious. They don't want to hang around with each other, and it is hard to find an equal balance.

I have never imagined this circumstance. Neither have I got into it. However, I will consider my friends' ideas because they are outsiders and may be more perspicacious.

Hi, my dear friend; vashstampede992000 (1166) Don't take too hard for that matter. Be moderate to all friends either girlfriend or girlfriend. Good friendship always relate to moderate interest level to each other. How? Easy matter mannnnn, create one vision, mission and objective. So is yours for that?. So far to me I don't have any trouble, because if they want to be fire, I will take water. If they want to be a tiger, I'll be the cat. Always take same species but with different category.....finish. The Little Me, Michael.

I think my friends will like my gf. There are my friends because they have some qualities I like or I have. My gf will whom, who also have some qualities I have or I like. So, I dont think my friends will not like my gf. Obvously, I may fall in a trap. I will certainly hear my friend's opinion in this case but The final decision will be taken by me! Thanks

I would LIKE if my lovers were friends with my friends just like I'd LIKE it if I could be friends with my friends lovers BUT its not necessary....Sure its a bonus and makes things easier but if one of my friends doesnt get along with my men or if my men dont get along with one or more of my friends then so be it....I refuse to pick one over the other so either they work with me on making it work or making it easier for all involved or they get out of my life....

I've experience that so many times..it is very difficult if you're friends dont like your boyfriend..and sometimes,you may hear some bad critics and your friends may judge him..i am the one who is being hurt if ever they say something bad about my man..coz they dont know him..what i always said to them is,my man loves me so much.and he cant pleased everybody..if ever he commits mistakes to me,i guess its normal..he's just human and not perfect..and i dont care about the mistakes the he've done..if you love someone,it doesnt matter..he's just true to himself.and he doesnt have to prove anything or he doesnt have to do good thing just to pleased my friends and he doesnt have to prove something.because loving me was enough.I LOVE HIM for who he is..

I think this kind of thing at all, like a person is their own affair, and others like it is not important. If your friends like your boyfriend or girlfriend, it is the need to pay attention to the matter.

For some reason I can't think why my friends would not like my boyfriend. First of all, my friends and I share the same interest,and if ever i will have to choose another BF i would make sure he shares the same interests as me. I had a friend though who has an annoying girlfriend. I didn't tell him so, and I never interfered with their relationship. I just supported him all the way. I think maybe there is something with her that I didn't see.

Hi vashstampede992000! I guess, I am fortunate that my friends and my hubby got along just fine. In fact we go out with them when our schedules are all free. They respect each other and they are just happy to see me happy. I guess, it is important that they get along because somehow it will strain the relationship and friendship. Take care and have a nice day!
