Default Re: Would you date someone who was a dick to your friends?

I would like to think my boyfriend would respect me enough to respect my friends, as well. I do have a friend who my partner really doesn't like, but he's always at least civil to him. I just don't bring the partner along when I do stuff with the friend.

No, if they can't accept my friends, I won't accept them as a friend, which I feel you need to be before you can date someone. I used to think otherwise, until My best friend in high school (was a girl, she's bi) was dating a guy who was bisexual, and his parents didn't like the "influence" our group had on him (we were all bi/gay/lesbian) so they told him to stop hanging out with us, and my friend told him it was us or his parents, and he chose his parents... So yea, that altered my views.

No way, my friends are important to me and they'll always be there if things don't work out with the person I date

Default Re: Would you date someone who was a dick to your friends?

Depends on the circumstances really. A lot of my friends are a lot less than perfect and some have quite unlikeable qualities so in some respects in wouldn't surprise me if other people I met didn't like them.

Depending on how many friends you have it could be unlikely a parter will like all your friends... I suppose it's about how close the friends in question are and how many.

Depends what you mean by acting like a 'dick' too. I don't like people being rude or horrible to people in general really.

No, I'm very loyal to the little amount of friends I do have, and I wouldn't date someone who was mean to them.

Not at all... I love my friends (although everybody goes to different schools now ) I don't think I'd be able to stand someone who didn't like my friends because we have a very diverse group... and it's literally impossible to not love them

I said no, because I wouldn't now. I have, in the past, dated someone who has always been a dick to my friends. Of course, he's been a dick to me too....The asshole. (got a little carried away there...) ~megan~

Definitely not. It depends on if he's being a complete dick or not, if he just doesn't get on with my friends I'd try to sort it out

If he's a dick to anyone, whether they're my friend or not, I will not tolerate it. I hate bitching and rudeness

Win.

Anyways, I am really close with my friends, and I'd much rather choose them than any single man. Besides, if he's a dick to my friends, he's probably not a very nice guy.

A similar plot line happened on The Golden Girls..

Except Dorothy was just friends with this person.
Anyway, after realizing the mistake- no.

If their rude to my friends then their rude to me. My friends are part of my life if they can't accept it then I'll choose to move on.

Default Re: Would you date someone who was a dick to your friends?

depends. what if its my friends that is such a dick to my bf?
i need to see the situation in two points of view. besides having a person as a friend, doesnt mean that he/she is not a dick. been there done that. but i wouldnt bring this hating-each-other to the topic with either two. so, yeah, i voted for yes........
..........

omg, this doesnt make me a bad person, right?
