Do men somehow lose interest in female friends who are in relationships (even if the friendship was (by Sparky)
Do men somehow lose interest in female friends who are in relationships (even if the friendship was always platonic)? Why?
I've had a few friendships with guys develop in the last few months and I can't help but notice that these friendships faded some time after I mentioned having a boyfriend.
Now, these friendships were always platonic from the start (at least to me). And I never noticed anything sexual/romantic hints from these men either. Yet, somehow, it feels like they lost interest in this friendship when they realised I'm not single. I do have a few other close male friends and everything seems fine with them, so I'm assuming I'm not driving them away. And this was not something I experienced back when I was single. In general, it just feels like men are uncomfortable around me once they find out that I have a boyfriend.
Do men somehow feel like they're crossing someone else's territory, or worried about your female friend's jealous boyfriend? I just can't seem to wrap my head around it and it's made it difficult for me to maintain friendships with men.
