ONLY RESPOND TO THIS IF YOU ARE GOING TO GIVE YOUR HONEST OPINION ABOUT IT Kk

Okay, my brother and his girl are in a major fight and both think that they are right. It all happened a couple of days ago.

My bro invited over a friend who is a girl and made cookies with her. His girlfriend feels a little threatened bcuz she doesn't really know the friend. My bro thinks that it isnt wrong to hang out with friends bcuz it doesn't really mean that he is going out with her. currently they are arguing over stupid shit.

who do you think is right?? please post and tell why. your opinion matters.

i would go with your brothers side. His argument makes much more sense while the girlfriend is just jumping to conclusions.

Your brother is right. If his girl isn't comfortable with the situation, he should not stay with her for too long.

I agree with your brother. His girlfriend seems a little paranoid.

I'm on the brother's side.. His explanation is much more reasonable and the girlfriend is just jumping to lots of conclusions..

Despite the fact she may be jumping to conclusions, where she is coming from makes sense to me, to be worried. Maybe if the friend and the girlfriend met and became closer and knew each other, it might change things. So, I wouldn't think either side is "right" because he might just want to hang out, but his girlfriend has a good reason to be worried.

Brother. Though the friend and his girlfriend could of known each other before to avoid these kind of situations, his girlfriend seems to be making unreasonable assumptions.

I'm with yer brother.

if the girlfriend doesn't like it then she doesn't trust your brother completely. although it would've been nice to tell her what he was doing

of course it's your brother. your brother's girlfriend might not like your brother going with with girls that are friends. your brothers story is more sensitive though

From what your wrote your brothers definitely right, his girlfriend sounds a bit crazy though she might have a good reason you just don't know about...

How old are they, 10? I mean seriously, she freaks out because he hangs out with a friend other than her. So what if it happens to be a girl. Girls can be so annoying sometimes. Over react a lot.

I would say if he honestly can tell himself that he has no interest in any other girl except for being friends then it's fine. Although if he really wanted to he could do the whole "I wont hang out with girl friends but you can't hang out with guy ones." But that genrally ends up with people lying and getting angry.

Okay, there are a lot of people saying your brother is right, simply because "It is a friend, she must be paranoid".
She might be paranoid, but it is more likely she is insecure about the relationship. This leads to these reaction, not because she wants him to be with her only, but because she might have been cheated on before, or it might be her first relationship; she is simply afraid something bad will happen, especially because your brother did not say anything. For what she might know, they could have been making out the entire time.

Tell your brother not to get angry about it. There are no need to being furious about something like this, and anger turns off any reason there might be.
He should ask her why she is feeling like this, and what he can do to make her feel more secure with both their relationship and his friendship with different people.
If she is unable to trust him, it is better to break it up, though. No trust in a relationship is not really working, and even though trust seems to be there to be broken, it is better that way.
