I've been dating a beautiful young lady for five months. Everything is going fine. She’s kind and smart, and I’ve been having a great time with her.

I really started thinking very seriously about her. I felt like we could make a good couple.

The one thing that bothered me was that she was always talking about her male best friend. Maybe my thoughts are outdated, but I don’t believe that a man and woman can be just friends.

As a man, I know that a lot of guys play the friend role just waiting for an opportunity to move right in, and frankly, that made me uncomfortable.

On our last date, she told me, 'I tell my best friend everything.' And that changed everything for me. Not only am I uncomfortable with the friendship itself, but I definitely don’t want another man involved in my relationship that way. So, after careful consideration, I ended things with her.

I must admit I miss her. She was great, but I know myself, and that would’ve been the catalyst for a lot of disagreements.

Beautiful machine, I need your help.

Did I do the right thing by ending this budding relationship?
