I have to agree with marq on this one. As much as we all want to be mature and trusting in a relationship, its best to know where others stand on wanting to dash said relationship to the wind, or more likely just keep you as the main guy while they get freebies on the side. Learning about your SO's friends, whether female or male, is a quick way to learn what type of person they are. I know from personal experience that these "friends" can be bad news.
It may be wierd but my way of looking at it is that some people will keep a few "friends" of the opposite *sometimes same* sex around just in case they have need. whether this be because the current relationship is on the rocks or they just need to get a quick lay.
Of course this all boils down to how much you trust your partner. I have come to a point where as soon as someone proves to me that they are willing to lie to me over insignificant things i know the relationship is doomed and end it swiftly. Anyone who is willing to break trust over something that doesnt effect them too much will be more than happy to lie to you over something serious.
