(Nick Galifianakis for The Post) | Carolyn Hax is away. The following appeared Aug. 3 and 26, 2007. Hi, Carolyn: My boyfriend is excessively and unreasonably jealous, insecure and mistrustful of other men — be they friends, exes or strangers on the street. I'm wondering if it's okay to meet up with a (male) college friend without telling my boyfriend. When I made these plans, the relationship with my boyfriend was strained. Now that he and I seem to be on stronger ground (for the moment), I'm in the difficult situation of either dumping my friend or awkwardly inviting my boyfriend along. Contrary to my boyfriend's suspicions, my relationship with my friend always has been purely platonic. Because I'm not technically doing anything wrong, does the adage "What they don't know won't hurt them" hold true? I just want to avoid fighting with my boyfriend about spending time with a friend, even if he is male. — Are There Any Little White Lies? |
