How to Make Your Girlfriend Comfortable Around Your Female Best Friend

So, you're in that unenviable position-your girlfriend doesn't approve of your female best friend. Don't let it cause arguments! Just follow some simple tips and hopefully, all will be fine!

Don't ever lie to your girlfriend in regards to your female best friend. If you go to your FBF (female best friend)'s house, then you have to tell your girlfriend! If you or your FBF lies about it, your girlfriend will probably find out, and then she'll have problems trusting both of you. Think about it-if you found out that your girlfriend had spent the day alone with another guy and not told you, how would you feel?

1. 2 Ask your girlfriend to come out with you and your FBF. That way, you'll show her that you have nothing to hide about what the two of you do together when she isn't around.
2. 3 When your FBF is around, subtly show your girlfriend some love and support. Holding her hand or wrapping your arm around her when you're sitting down is a good way to help reassure her. It also shows her that your FBF is in no way uncomfortable with you having your girlfriend around.
3. 4 Encourage your FBF to talk to your girlfriend, and vice versa. If they both have Facebook, why not start a group chat with both of them, and let them get to know each other?
4. 5 If your FBF is uncomfortable around your girlfriend, ask her why. If her excuse is along the lines of 'we can't do things we normally do around her' or 'it's not fun when she's around' etc, then perhaps your girlfriend is right to be wary of her.

   If your FBF upsets your girlfriend, or lies to her about anything regarding your friendship, then let your girlfriend know that you agree that your FBF was in the wrong. Do not try to defend your FBF or turn the blame on your girlfriend ("So she appeared offline to you on Facebook so she could talk to me alone, whatever! Get over it! She only did it because you're so annoying!"). Instead, encourage your FBF to apologise or explain her actions to your girlfriend. The same works vice-versa.

   Don't do anything that will hurt your girlfriend. If she's still trying to get used to your FBF being in your life, don't suddenly demand that you get to stay overnight alone with your FBF. Most girlfriends wouldn't be happy with this, and for the sake of your relationship, you shouldn't consider it.

   If your girlfriend asks to see a sample of your conversations/texts with your FBF, let her. Chances are that if your girlfriend sees that nothing flirty goes on between the two of you, then she'll be more okay with you talking to her. If you don't want to show her because you think she'll take the things you say to your FBF the wrong way, or the messages you send are flirty, then you should own up to it and stop sending those messages immediately.

   Take your FBF aside and make sure that she knows how important your girlfriend is to you, and that you are in a very loving relationship. You should also tell your FBF that your girlfriend is still feeling uncomfortable around her, and ask her to maybe try to talk to your girlfriend and put her at ease. If your FBF refuses, chances are that you shouldn't be friends
