Can someone please tell me if I’m over reacting in this situation? so So my boyfriend of almost a year and I were on FaceTime last night and he said ‘I’m going to the pub tomorrow night with friend A (his guy mate, I won’t use real names) and two of friend Bs friends who are girls but friend B isn’t coming. So it’s just the four of them and neither of them know these girls, I know he can have girl mates and I’m fine with that but him and his mate are meeting two girls they’ve never met before at the pub while I’m at work, does anyone else think this is a little odd like a double date? Or am I just over reacting I just feel weird about the whole situation

I just feel like if it was the other way around and me and a girlfriend were meeting up with two lads we hadn’t met at a pub he wouldn’t be happy about it

I think as long as it’s planned as a ‘friend thing’ and their intentions aren’t for a double date and you trust that he would reject any advances and set boundaries then I don’t see the issue

Would it be any different if they were meeting two new guys? Why does it matter that they’re girls?

Why can’t guys meet new friends? gender shouldn’t be an issue. I’m bi and I’m constantly making new female friends, should that make my bf feel uneasy?

People can make new friends. They're not total random strangers, they're mutual friends. My friends will introduce me to their friends who are "new people" all the time it'a a normal thing to happen in friend groups. Unless you think their friend is deliberately trying to set your boyfriend up with these girls, which would be really weird, you do not need to worry.

also i think it’s a massive red flag that he wouldn’t be happy with you meeting other guys.

Trust your boyfriend unless he gives you a reason to not trust him. If this wouldn’t be an issue if the people they were meeting were male then you’re over reacting slightly and this is your issue. However if your boyfriend isn’t ok with you having male friends/making new male friends and therefore there’s a double standard going on here - then that’s a separate issue
