Is it normal that my friend doesn't want to hang out with me?

Okay so I'm a 20 year old girl and when I was around the age of 14 I met this guy who went to the same school as I did. Back then I liked him so we started hanging out and became really good friends. After a while we even started dating but it didn't work out that well. We were young and we had lots of silly fights and we broke up with eachother. At that moment I didn't only loose my boyfriend but also a really good friend. And through the years I really missed that friendship. At the age of nineteen I started talking to him again and we soon became really good friends again. I love him a lot (as a friend!) and I consider him as one of my closest friends. We tell eachother everything.

The point is, everytime he has a girlfriend he doesn't want to hang out with me anymore because he thinks it isn't fair to his girlfriend if he meets up with other girls. Not even close friends!! He says he wouldn't like it if his girlfriend would hang out with other guys so he can't do it either. I think it's ridiculous because we're really close friends. Is it normal that he's like this?

    Yes. But ask to meet his girlfriend and friend her up; show her she has nothing to worry about, you went there and it didn't work out. But it is normal for guys in relationships to stop hanging with other girls alone, just like he wouldn't like it if his girlfriend met up with guy friends, friendships are easier to maintain if everyone is aquainted with each other. Unless you don't like the girlfriends he picks then your SOL

    Yep. But to hang out with u alone is bad but in a group setting not really. Honestly put urself in a relationship with a man. You and your man are at home watching movies his best friend calls who happens to be a girl and she asks him to go see a movie with her... how do u feel? Why does he need to spend time with another woman when he can spend it with you? Sounds like he is serious about this woman enough to put her feelings before yours...

    Well actually I don't mind if my boyfriend spends time with friends that happen to be girls. I don't see why there's a difference between spending time with friends that are guys and spending time with friends that are girls. Friends are friends. I thinks it's absurt that one of my best friends ditches me everytime he has a girlfriend...
