Friend thinks this holiday is weird.

[lemonface]

I am female, I have a male DP. My DP has a sister who is gay, lets call her DP Claire. We all get on really well and see each other at least once a month.
Me and Claire are going away for a long weekend together. We were both keen to visit particular place and are good friends.
My friend thinks its weird as she said I wouldn't be going if sisters DP was a man.
Now I'm wondering what other people think ? This is okay isn't it?

Absolutely fine. Your friend is being ridiculous.

You are being completely unreasonable...

to continue to be friends with someone who has such strange views

Go on holiday with Claire and enjoy yourself.

You wouldn't be going if your sisters DP was a koala either.

But as she's neither a man or a koala, your friend is wierd and looking for problems that don't exist...

I don't get it. Your friend thinks it's weird you're friends with your partner's sister's partner? Friends are friends, regardless of sexuality.

That’s lovely! Your friends the one who’s strange

Weird. You’re not going away with her because she’s his sister, it’s because she’s your friend.

I don't understand what your friend is on about you are going away with your sisterinlaw you are friends are lesbians not allowed friends

Is it weird because Claire is obviously wanting to have an affair with you? Which to be fair is what a lot of people would say if she was a male partner.

Weird! Of course it's fine!

Your friend is being bizarre. Who knows, maybe you would go away together if Claire was a man and you happened to also be good friends and share similar interests!

I don’t think it’s weird but I’d wonder why Claire’s partner wasn’t coming too.

I really don't understand why your friend takes issue with this, is she envious? One of those you're my friend so you can't be friends with anyone else without me jobs?

Of course it's fine for you to be good friends with this woman.

I don’t think it’s weird but I’d wonder why Claire’s partner wasn’t coming too

Eh? Do you think couples have to go everywhere together and can't have weekends away with friends?

How odd.

Why would claires partnerneed to be there ?

I've been away with my DH's gay dsis's wife and DH's brother's female partner. Guess I'm weird too. They're just friends of mine. Familial connections are almost irrelevant.

What your friend is really saying is that lesbians can't have straight female friends. If they are trying to be friends, they really just want to have sex with you. That is absolute rubbish though.

She is like your sister in law although you and dp are not married. Why can't you be friends with your sister in law and do stuff together? My friend gets on so well with her sister in law and frequently spend time together

I'm also going away with DH's best friend's DW next year. Can you check if that's weird too please?

And my DP has went and done things with his ex I am not interested in, so we must be really weird.

Your friend is an idiot.

For what it's worth I'd also go with a male. Because I don't want to drop my knickers for everything with a penis! People can be just friends ffs

People who say things like this have obviously never heard of the words platonic or trustworthy!

Bloody ridiculous.

I’m bisexual and this kind of shit does my head in. Luckily my wife allows me to have friends.

I don’t get it. Why wouldn’t you go if Claire’s partner was a man? I don’t get why her partner has anything to do with it? I go away with my friends and it has nothing to do with the gender of their partner?!?

I’m bisexual as well, according to your friend’s reasoning I should never go anywhere with anyone!

Isn't this a storyline in Friends when Ross was cheesed off with Emily and Susan meeting up in London?
