My boyfriend has just got back from a stag do in Ireland (not his own stag do) and i was very happy for him to go and he had a fabulous time(sp)!
As much as couples love each other its good to have time apart it makes you appreciate each other more and i love going out with my girlies.
For the lads magazines thing, well, i aint got a perfect body and the girls in the magazines have and have been air brushed to perfection but as long as men understand that real women dont all look like this and dont expect them to and still think their girlfriend is beautiful i dont see the problem
Before I married, I dated a girl like that. The more constricting she became, the more I desired to be free, and ultimately we parted ways.
Later, she came round and understood that men like their freedom, their mates, their pints, and their lads magazines. Dating was much more pleasant, and ultimately we married.
lol, it needs to be a happy medium ... its hard work sometimes getting it there though!!! My OH is a guess a "typical" bloke, he has a lads night out 1-2 times a week and I generally drop him off and pick him up, when he is out I see my girls ... I hate and yet love spending time away from him (proper time I mean like weekends!) I always miss him loads but I like it because I appreciate him even more when I get home!
As to the girly mags, he doesn't buy those so I don't know but he does watch them now and again and it really doesn't bother me any more ... think it just comes with time and feeling secure in your relationship :-) I mean I am never going to look like those girls but I know he doesn't fancy them, it is just a bloke thing!! I mean if we always understood you lot what would the world come to?!?!
If she is telling you what to do though that is wrong, if it really upsets her she neds to explain to you why and then hopefully you can work out something in the middle which makes you both happy ... but you can't tell someone else what to do that is just plain wrong!
If he wants porn mags, fine. I might even have a look as well.
So long as he doesn't mind me going out for a night on the town with my mates either.
Agree entirely with those who said that its all a bit of give and take/compromise. If your girlfriend expects to go out clubbing with her mates, she shouldn't complain if you want to do the same with yours.
