Ladies as you read this article pause for a second, as many of you can relate to having a boyfriend who has female friends, let's be fair in analysing this situation.

Many of us have male friends, many of us have close male friends and many of us have male friends we've been intimate with in the past but we keep it a secret because we don't want to jeopardise our current relationship.

So let's be honest with ourselves, none of us wants our partners telling us who should be our friends whether they are male or female and especially if dem ah yuh friend from longtime. Suh why do we attempt to tell our partners who they should be friends with and what gender the 'friend' should be?

All dat ago cause is drama that you honestly don't need. I understand situations where friends can overstep their boundaries and become too involved. I understand that it feels as if your partner and his friend share a special bond that you want to be a part of, but their journey as friends has nothing to do with your journey as a couple.

If it's a situation where the friend becomes overbearingly intrusive; communicate your feelings to both your partner and his friend ... keep it real at all times!

Ensure your role is always filled by you by being the best partner you can be! Nuh worry bout nobaddy else role!

Don't waste your energy being jealous and playing games by trying to compete with his friend.

Why compete for the position of friend when you've already been promoted to the position of partner!
