A friend whom you trust very much and for a very long time can "betray you" and decide to steal your man or woman away from you. 

The big question is, while this is a possibility, how can you prevent this without of course not making her/him feel distrusted?

1. Talk to your man about it

It will reward you if you tell your man that despite the fact that he/she has been your best friend for a very long time, you have noticed that they are changing. 

Make your man understand that you are not doubting him neither are you trying to be jealous, you are only trying to guard your territory.  

2. Organize group dates

Let your friend come over with her man for this date. Get to know each other, this will ease things between the two groups since mutual trust will start growing and you will be able to respect the boundaries since everyone understands that they are taken. 

After this, you will notice that many activities that were giving you sleepless nights will subside.

3. Create room for other people

You do not have to show that you are trying to be possessive of your man; show that you have space to accommodate other people. 

according to a relationship expert, Sarah Butcher of Florida State University keeping other people close will show how much you trust them and their chances of them betraying you will be minimal.

4. Talk to your friend about the plans you have with your man

If he is the man/woman you are seeing a future with, be free to tell your friend, people understand others more when we open up to them. Do you think she will dare get close to your man if she knows how high you rate him?
