I was married for 35 years. In that whole time, my husband had many female friends. It never bothered me at all., because i wasn’t jealous like that. I was never able to have male friends, though. That was always some kind of threat.
I always got along better with guys than women, so I was always turning down outings and ghosting people in favour of my marriage. Now, since we divorced after 35 years., I have no friends at all. He kept his girlfriends from high school (even marrying one within a year of our divorce) and I’m completely alone.
Seems fair.
This is fairly common imo. My (now ex) wife would have a problem with my all my female friends and most my male friends (especially unmarried men).
My social circle decreased drastically after I got married. But it wasn’t just her, 75% of women I have been in relationships with became hinderances to my other relationships.
