Guys Only......After being together 6 years my boyfriend won't let me meet his friends. Is this normal?

I would like a man's opinion on this.


Me and my BF have been together for almost 6 years. I'm 26 %26amp; he is 31. He has never made it a point to let me meet his friends. In all of the time we have been together I have only met some of his friends once a few years ago because we bumped into them when we were out somewhere together. He didn't even introduce me. I also know he has a lot of chick friends too. I haven't met any of them either. When he hangs out with his friends I am never invited along even though they bring their girlfriends along too sometimes. I've asked him several times if I could meet his friends and he always says maybe next time or I just want to hang with them by myself. Is this normal? He's met all of friends. What do you guys think? Any advice would be great.

i don't think it is normal at all


especially after 6 years?


one of the great joys of a ltr is sharing


this includes family and friends


do you suspect he's hiding something


or possibly ashamed?


maybe you should dtmfa


honesty should be at the core of any relationship
Reply:its easy. He doesn't want you in his other circle. His always around you so much that he needs some space and he finds that space with his other friends. And inviting you wouldn't give him anything that he can do without you. Make sense?
Reply:maybe he is afraid of bumping into his wife someplace, or his fiancee..drop the nut.he is selfish.
Reply:In six years have you made it known to him you would like to be included in his get togethers? If not, he might just be married and his friends know who his wife is so he pretends you aren't there or that your not that special.





He would have introduced you at 3-4 months into the relationship if he was on the up and up. Since he hasn't make it clear that he is disrespecting you, he probably assumes you've done this before.





Ask him "how's your wife doing?" and see if you get a response.
Reply:I think you should let him go. He's up to no good. Don't waste your time anymore...





Good luck

Reply:No. If he doesn't want you to meet his friends, it means he have something to hide from you. There's no honesty in your relationship. Or maybe he doesn't his friends know that he already had a gf for some reason. Dump him!!
Reply:hmmms he might just only be too protective of u tats y he doesn't wan u near his frens. dun think too much abt it be normal n dun ask him anymore he will one day introduce u. or if u wan to take the first move, u can introduce him to ur frens n assure him tat u wud only love him one n only dat way he wudn't be so scared tat u will be stolen away from him
Reply:He either has no friends, his friends are weird, or he is embarrassed of you. This isn't normal behavior.
Reply:Highly abnormal. He suffers from insecurity and selfishness and hence no trust has developed from his side even after 6 years. You may find it difficult to live with him if you marry. Such mentalities do not create the best of relations.
Reply:Is that the way he is ruling you? And you allowing him for 6 years. To tell the truth there is something he is hiding from you. So what you do if it is hard for you to know his friends through him find them out by yourself - that is without his involvement.
Reply:No it's not normal. Your his dirty little secret. I wouldn't stand for it.
Reply:Theres ALOT of reasons... sadly none of them are good... find out asap
Reply:6 years? No ring? Maybe he's got his cake and is eating it too. Good for him. After 6 years you're starting to get worried? Forget about it. Let him keep his space, you've let him have it for 6 years you can't change the rules now. But you have to wonder how serious he is about you...
Reply:A man's opinion ... I know, I know but I couldn't help myself. Of your respondents so far, only Mike seems to be able to take a man's view of this.


Your boyfriend is one of those guys who likes to keep his romantic relationships separate from his friendships. There's nothing essentially wrong with this since you are by implication at liberty to do the same.


Men need space (just ask one). Your boyfriend needs his. And that is what his friends are for. You nagging him about it is not helpful. You'll only make him feel guilty for trying to satisfy his need for space.


Let the man be and let him enjoy his friendships. They're not hurting you and they are doing him a great deal of good.
Reply:I think that is the weirdest thing i've ever heard! I would wonder why he won't let you meet them? coz there is obviously a reason
Reply:honestly - as bad as it sounds , chances are he is seeing more than one person or doesnt class you as his girlfriend - or maybe he is married??
Reply:Either he is ashamed of you, or he has something to hide from you. In both cases he doesn't deserve you! Treating you like this after 6 years is something you can't tolerate.
Reply:er, it took you 6 years to ask this question?





drop him. he's not for real.
Reply:I think for some friends he does not want you to meet is fine... But at least you should be able to meet friends that he is comfortable with....





You may want to persist and take his offer up..when ever he mentioned "next time?|" then just remind him again..





There is no point making a BIG issue out of this... not worth it...do it slowly..perhaps he may have his own reasons after all..


take care..
Reply:He has a cecond life, and doesnt want you to know about it
