I have been more a boys friend than a girl friend since i was 2 or something XD I have more friends that are male. but i'm also someone who likes to hug. Would you see a hug between friends as cheating?
Maybe a prolonged flirtatious hug would be over the line. It also does depend on the person. If you are pretty much known to hug others constantly, and I do know a girl like that, then it'd probably be cool with me.
But a prolonged hug that maybe sometimes is a little flirtatious, just because you are with a lot of friends and having fun and just relaxing, not because you think i want to kiss him, i want to kiss him or whatever.. Just because, for example you are in a jacuzzi and there isn't much space and you'll sit in front of someone and he'll hug you and you'll hug back, because it's nice, you don't feel uncomfortable and it's just friends who have fun...
Graham is right, here. Ask your partner. It is different for each person and each relationship. Some folks are more jealous than others. It is all subjective.
My partner and I have very little jealousy issues. In fact, when I used to bartend she would help me look my best and kept my ring at home. Because I would pretend to be straight and single. Why? Because I got WAY more tips.
Bottom line is, it depends on each person and how much trust is in the relationship.
But it's to be expected that when you are young, you're going to be way more jealous than you are as an adult. You grow out of a lot of it and realize that if someone is going to cheat, there is nothing you can do about it except hold your dignity and know you are better off with out them.
My partner, hates the guy, so yea he doesn't like it. But if he could, he would want me to never see my friends again and that goes way too far!
He just needs to trust me. I won't do anything ridiculous. At least that's how i see it. If i would kiss him, that would cross the line or if i really felt something, but i don't. I just have fun and my partner would want i didn't have that with him.
You need to explain to your partner, that to have a healthy relationship he must trust you. Assure him that you have only platonic feelings for X guy and friends are important to you (if that's the case). Tell him, you hold the boundaries of your relationship well and do not intend to cross them. But if you did want to be with someone else, you would tell him. But right now, you are with your partner and that's the bottom line.
