Simivin,
I understand all of her baggage, and why she feels this way, but she IS over-reacting.
Having said that, I also realize that americans have a very exclusionary way of looking at dating/mating/relating. We tend to be irrational about monogomy, to the point where an SO is not allowed to find fulfillment outside of the SO/SO bond.
I find this WAY too confining, and have long ago broke my wife of this.
I think it is really cool you have someone to talk to, regardless of thier gender. Be honest w/ your SO, and make sure she fully understands how much your friend means to you, (and don't screw her) and all should be fine.
