Rebeccaa agony auntTheres nothing to worry about alot of my friends are boys. Girls usually like boys as friends because they like a boys opinions on things, i wouldnt let it worry you. Unless there is anything suspicious but to me it doesnt sound like there is.

Good Luck! :)

StarryEyes101 agony auntMy best friend is a guy. Some guys are intimidated then they see that you are more like siblings than bf/gf and you start to be more confident. You will have to get used to it as he is her best friend. She may resent you in the future if you try to push them apart.

Hope this helps =)

dirtball agony auntIt's natural, but you really need to control yourself.

It's natural because as a guy, you know that guys aren't usually friends with girls they aren't interested in dating. So you realize that his intentions may not be as pure as they seem. At the same time, this is NOT something that she realizes, wants to realize, or will admit if confronted about it. He will likely deny it as well, even if we know better. Because of that, any jealousy you show will only serve to drive her away from you. Just be supportive and confident that she's with you because she likes you more. Do your best to become her best friend by being open, caring, listening to her, helping her, etc. Basically be a good boyfriend and eventually YOU will be more important to her.

Still, if he's been in her life for a long time, it's best if you just accept that he'll always be there. He's only a threat if you make him one.

Naley1289 agony auntOh, my God! I know what you feel like, not because it has happened to me but because I'm a girl who ONLY had guy friends and almost every guy I have dated at one point has felt super jealous because my best friend is a guy and I only hang out with guys. But yes its normal hun, as long as you don't try to control her and tell her she can't hang out with her friends anymore. Just talk to her and see what happens. Maybe its just your jealousy that's making you think she likes him. Remember, communication is the key.
