Yeah, my answer is “whenever he wants to?” - I get me time, he gets him time, and we’re both happy.

Mostly, I just trust my husband to not desire the company of shady dramatic untrustworthy people. And I trust his judgment and his taste.

Jealousy is a mental condition. I would never have married my wife if I did not trust her completely. She hangs out with guys on her own from time to time. I have no fear that a penis will happen upon her vagina unless she was looking for said penis to enter her vagina.

It must be “rare” if it doesn’t describe you, eh? If you’re going to make such a preposterous claim, be prepared to back it up with scientific studies. I’m sure someone’s done research on gender and friendships that would apply here.

This. Putting the blame on the third party, unless you think they’re planning to drug/rape your partner (which is a whole other thing), is just a roundabout way of saying you don’t trust your partner without actually saying it.

You have a very small and limited world view and I pity you.

That’s the thing. When it comes to my SO hanging out with dudes, I rarely trust the dudes. But I do trust her, and I trust that she can make proper decisions and take care of herself.

So much this. Mature trust/ lack of jealousy is what convinced me to marry him in the first place. And we’d be in huge trouble if I was the jealous type: he has a number of female friends, mainly work colleagues. I can’t fathom caring about whether there are ulterior motives behind things like one-on-one lunches out…

Yes, exactly! FOMO is fine - it’s working yourself and your partner into a frenzy because they’re in the vicinity of someone who they might not be horrified at theoretically having sex with that is irrational.

A bit hard for me to understand super jealous people.

Really? What about my husband who travels as much as he is home and frequently has dinners or drinks with single women co-workers?

I feel like I err on the side of jealous (and it’s because my dad cheated on my mom in the most terrible way), but I do trust my husband completely. A perk is that he hates pretty much everyone, so even though there are coworkers and regulars of his (he bartends part-time) who have definitely had crushes on him, he…

yeah I bet she just fell down some stairs

I love football. I have always loved football. I remember going to a slumber party in 6th grade and the girl didn’t have cable so I had to find a radio in order to listen to my Crimson Tide play. I remember rocking my baby girl to sleep years later and witnessing the heartbreaking injury to Prothro. When my city…

Sorry, I get the appeal of having your own child... but seriously? My wife and I tried for a few years without trying anything but the first ditch method. We had decided our next step would be to adopt a baby (locally). As it is the far more sensible option.
