How much should your friends know about your relationship?

By Miss Kes 

How much involvement should your friends and family have in your relationship? Is it appropriate, for example, to share details of your bedroom activities with these folks?

Careen:

I think it is disrespectful. I do not discuss my man and what we do with my friends because I don’t trust women, and they won’t have any information to use against me. My relationship is between me and my man and no one else.

Cassi:

Some women are just waiting to hear what you do with your man to pounce on him. I am careful because I know how women are, and they just want to hear that you have a good man, and that’s a free ticket for them to make a move.

Denise:

Even though I share sometimes, I know it’s not something women should do, because sometimes a man will want to share certain things with you but he fears that his name will reach the streets so he holds back.

Janet:

It’s wrong but men do it too. I do not participate in certain discussions and conversations with my girlfriends just out of respect for my man. Once they start talking on certain issues/topics, I get my car keys and I am out.

CM:

Every woman is guilty of this. I talk about my sex life with my friends and they share their stories too. It all depends on the friends you have. I trust all of mine and we all know that what we discuss in our circle stays there.
